Hi there Candid, I want to think that we are still a July filer because until now we didn’t get our interview sked! NVC will be the one to give us the interview date but it is USEM-MNL will grant the go signal of the available date. :bonk: It sucks!!

To July filers good luck to all of you here.

Hi I just want to clarify...When filing CR1/IR1 in teh USE Manila, do they forward it to NVC in the USA? Or all are being processed here in USE Manila.Are they the one who grants the visa or the visa is being decided in NVC and only USE manila conduct a formality interview?
