ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The processing time for a non-immigrant O visa application for a retirement visa from the London Embassy typically takes about 2 weeks, as indicated by some applicants. However, this duration can vary depending on the completeness of the application. If all required documents are submitted initially, the process may be faster. Delays may occur if additional documentation is needed. It's advisable to check the embassy's posted processing times for guidance and to apply well in advance, since the visa is valid for 3 months from the issuance date.
