Drop box visa restamping next week. Wage level 4, FTE. How much time do you think it will take? Worried about possible delays due to admin processing.

There’s no way to say with certainty. I would plan a 4 week vacation and do the drop box within a day or two of landing to allow maximum time. In general shouldn’t take more than 2 weeks for admin processing

Mine took a week earlier this month. No way to tell with certainty. Nothing to do with your wage level or anything.

I got my visa stamped in 5 days. Pretty straightforward process for me. Let me know if you have any questions.

Is this in India? If so, is drop box visa re-stamping still in practice? I thought it’s no longer possible, based on some new USCIS regulations

^It’s still on. I think it was only discontinued for a brief period of time.

OP, that’s the best visa news I’ve heard in a long time. 😬

Hi op , I am going for Dropbox in June. Please
Share your experience once done 🙏🏻

Did they ask for a client letter or anything ?

Nope nothing in my case. I am FTE, so no client letter was required in any case.

OP, when you say 5 days, is that the timeframe between the drop off date and the day you got your passport back?

^nope. That’s issue time. End to end was June 1st (fri) to Jun 11(mon) i.e. 7 business days.

OP - Thanks for the info. Also, was the US consulate in the same city/state as your home state?

I’m trying to get a clear picture on the timeline.

^Yes, but does it matter? It was Delhi in my case.

OP - Of course, it matters. There is no US consulate in my home state. So, once I drop off the passport, it takes few additional days for the passport to reach the consulate in other state. Same case on the way back once the passport is stamped
