Has anyone heard anything from the Los Angeles Consulate as of recently? I know turn around times are supposed to be 15 business days. With the holidays and the fires I can’t help but feel they are backed up and taking way longer than other embassies.

I applied on the 6th and emailed them yesterday and they approved me. But I resent a missing document I knew they would be asking for so not sure what you might ask them but you can try emailing them

I'm waiting over 3 weeks ... I'm sure the fire has delayed everything
