We have BC!! + pink timeline??

I can't believe we got the birth cert!! I'm so excited!

The papers are (supposed to be) submitted this coming Mon. Does anyone know the approx timeline from submission to Pink?? Just curious. We are really working hard to figure out our pick up trip timeline due to my work requirements.

congrats on your BC - I thought someone posted that the embassy was closed on Monday (could be totally wrong here). Hopefully someone who got a recent PINK will be able to help you with the dates. It is getting really close though. People that got PINK this week have appointments next week already!!!

If I were a betting gal (and I am) I would bet Friday the 20th or Monday the 23rd. Yipeee! The embassy is closed Monday, I am basing my guess considering that info.

I think the Embassy is closed on Mon, according to our SW.. After the atty submits the papeerwork for PINK, the embassy usually issues it within 48 to 72 hrs. We received pink on 10/5 and our appt is 10/13- hope that helps.

Timeline

We were submitted this past Monday, got Pink Wed and an apt for next Fri (that is with a week with a Monday holiday.) Sooooooooooooooo - if you are submitted on Tuesday, should be ready on Thursday and an apt the following Friday, then Visa pick up in Monday. Just don't count on it - last Nov it took us 3 weeks to get Pink once it was submitted - I was beyond destitute when it finally came. You can hope for the best, but plan for the worst - that way you are not going crazy!

Looks like lots of the recent Pinks only took the 2 days - good luck!!!!!
