Hi everyone, you guys have been of great help in this long process and I have one more question for you!

My Colombian wife had her interview on the 15th of May, everything went well and they asked her to leave her passport. We were expecting to get everything back 2-3 weeks after but still no news.

We're wondering what's the usual delay between the final interview and the delivery of the passport.

She did her interview at the embassy in Bogota, Colombia.

Thanks!!

Have you done medical and are you in the final phase of the sponsorship process.

When did you apply ?

Why not send an email to the Visa office.

Visa office in Bogota, Colombia
Application was received on November 29, 2017, medical was done on the 14th of May, one day prior to the interview. My wife said at the end of the interview they told her the process was complete and she could leave her passport there. A week after we received a request to send a new picture, we physically sent it to the VO on the next day. Then, couple days after we noticed they were allowing/asking us to upload a picture on the CIC portal. So went to take a new picture and uploaded it.

This is the current status on the portal

I didn't know we could ask about it through email. We tried calling them and they said they don't give any information, to wait for their call.

Thanks for your help
