E Visa Processing Time? Hello, this my first time using the full E Visa system for a Tourist Visa. Out of Chicago in Pre Covid days processing time was about 4 days, now I have been in processing for about 8 business days. Is this now normal for Chicago? I know the website says up to 15 business days, just curious as to the current processing time. At least no COE this year!

They wonder if the longer processing time is now normal, even though the official timeline indicates up to 15 business days. A commenter suggests checking the status regularly and recommends contacting the consulate via Facebook Messenger for better response rates.
