    You can find the answer here:

    As you can see, right now it’s 37 days to get an interview appointment for a tourist/business visa, 21 for a student visa, 30 for others. Plus it takes two days to process the visa for return.

    They say that the wait time is 8 weeks, however the passport bureau is inundated at this time so they are taking longer. I would allow at least twelve weeks
