Hi Prad12

I also applied on 16th May
Got PP request on 16 th June
I sent PP to LA on 17th June
They will receive today on 18th June.
So can you please update me once you get your passport back.
I am planning to start this weekend and I booked hotel and rental Car. Should I cancel those?
If you will get by one or two days then I can also wait till friday for my Return tracking to activate.

Thanks

Good to know that the US Consulates are still processing through visa applications. I've been really nervous about being able to get my tourist visa on time. If/when I get the notification to send my passport it, do any of you know if I'll be able to choose which consulate (NY or LA) to send it to? I live in Chicago. From this thread, it looks like LA is a lot faster in processing stamping. Thanks in advance!

You will have the choice if you applied online.

It is also true that LA is much faster. My friends got a week ahead of me receiving passport request. They sent to NY. Now I get my passport back while they are still waiting.
