OMG!! i just check my case number online and found out i was scheduled for Medical at ST. Lukes on 5th May at 7:00am,

i thought we can just go there anytime we want?

please any advise about this? Thanks..

From what I understand when I talked to somebody at the Call Center..they said the LATEST to do medical is 1 week before interview but you can go ahead before that.. May 5th is like a week before May 12. To me it just seems like a reminder to complete your medical on or before May 5th which is about a week from your interview. So just go ahead and do your medical early unless the good people at St.Lukes tells you to come back some other time.

Joe&Ghe is right, you can go there anytime you want now that you have an interview appointment.

The old packet 4 says: "When you go to SLMCEC for medical examination, you must bring your interview appointment letter, passport, and one photo (size:2"x2")."

Whereas, in the revised packet 4, they have omitted the appointment letter and it only tells you to bring your pasport and one 2"x2" photo. BUT there was somebody here who was told by the embassy that she doesn't need appointment letter to go to SLMCEC but when she went there they refused to accomodate her without appointment letter. That was a week or two ago. Maybe the embassy and SLMCEC have had proper communication regarding new requirements now but to be on the safe side just have your confirmation email and also that online appointment page printed out.

BTW, did you check your appointment online on this link: http://203.177.135.10/ivappointment/login.asp ? I have tried checking our case number but it still says "case number not found on appointment list" We have called for appointment lst tuesday, april 1. Do you think I should give them a few more days to update the list or did you have another site where we could check our appointment online? Thanks.

Hi everyone! My Fiancee, Maria, would like to meet all of you there on May 12! She will fly to Manila on April 27 for a April 28 medical. Then fly to Manila again on May 11 for her May 12 interview. She will be traveling with her Mom and our 9 month old daughter.

Good Luck and God Bless,

Robert and Maria

You guys have any specific idea or places you can meet on that day close to the embassy? I can just tell my fiancee what to do.

Hey guys,

Maybe you will find this question stupid, pero i am not so sure. Kapag ba ing -pay na natin ang ds form (visa application fee P5,500) , next is what? I mean , sa araw ng interview lang ba tayo pupunta sa US embassy?

Thanks po.

[sweetpink 1]

oh I just love the month of May aside froom its my mom's birthday and the month of 'Flores de Mayo" in Philippines, its the same month from last year that I had my interview and of course it was a success.

Best of luck to all the people who will have their interview by May. Have confident to yourself and lots of prayers.

i think we just need to keep the reciept and insert it with our other pertinent documents. As for going to the embassy maybe you'w want to have an ocular inspection on the place to check where you need to stay prior to appointed time or where you need to line up when you go for the interview proper but its optional.

btw, to those who will be coming from the province, have you made arrangements where to stay for the medical and then for the interview?

sweetpink: Thank you very much for the well wishes, it's very much appreciated

I called and got Riza's interview scheduled for 05/27. They told me that as of today, interview dates from 05/13-05/29 were available except for 05/26. This is likely because of the Memorial Day Holiday.

Hi people,

My interview is on May 16, guess I can be included in group's list...

Just a question though: I have not received my packet but the US Embassy in Manila's website indicates that the interview schedule is set on the date mentioned above, at 8:30am. On the website, it also specifies that the medical exam schedule is also on the same date, May 16 at 12:00am...hellow!!!! that's 12 midnight!!!! Is this the same case as those with IR cases? Can anyone help in clarifying this? Should this really be followed?

Thanks in advance and good luck to all those having their medical exams and interviews the coming weeks!

Kenneth and Joyce

Hi we got our interview schedule this morning, it's gonna be on May 14 7:30AM. I am waiting for my confirmation letter to arrive in my email, when do you think they will gonna send it?

Once I have it can I have my early medical? What else should I bring in my medical aside from the USE letter, passport and 2x2 pictures?

Can anybody tell me the DETAILS about CFO? When should I go for the seminar, before or after the interview? Where is it located? etc

I don't have printer at home, can I just download the DS forms and answer everything offline (handwritten)? Please advise.

I have to make 2 payments in the bank, one in Metrobank for the documents verification fee and in BPI/CitiBank for the visa fee. right?

I will apreciate all the answers... thank you guys
