can anyone pleez tell me how long i have to wait from getting a receipt for non immigrant visa, to the time it is processed? and also when they do issue it, do i still have to apply in my own country for a waiver so they will let me enter the US? someone please advise me

Please tell us the kind of visa and the kind of receipt you are expecting and what troubles you between consular processing and filing here in the US about your case or is it someone else?

i have received my receipt, and are waiting for an I-129f from chicago
