The primary advantage of Consular Processing is speed. The time frame for Consular Processing is between 6 to 12 months, on average. Once the Consular Processing application is approved, the alien is able to gain permanent resident status in the United States.

I need to pick up my or someone else’s Social Security or benefits check, completed passport, or completed Consular Report of Birth Abroad, but that is not an option on the Appointment page. What do I do?
What if I have limited dental benefits available through my Federal Employee Health Benefit (FEHB) Plan? How does this affect my MetLife dental claims?
Does an alien who chooses to apply for Consular Processing have the benefits of a work permit and advance parole?
