When will be given K-1 visa after interview??
I would like to know how long it takes until I get K-1 visa after interview. Most people said that it takes for almost a week. My interview date is on 24th of June, and I want to buy a flight ticket on 4th or 7th of July. Do you think I can get the visa within 1 week after interview???

There was a recent poster here who took the embassy's word that she'd have her visa within 3 to 5 days. She bought a ticket for that time frame, and it ended up taking 2 more days, she had to change her ticket.
You can make a reservation, but don't purchase the ticket until you have your visa in your hands.

Do NOT buy a ticket until you have your visa IN HAND. There's no way of knowing exactly when you will get it, or if it will be approved on the day of your interview.
