My husband is scheduled for interview on Feb 25th at 8:30 AM.

Medical: Does he need to make an appointment? Or pwede na sya pumunta sa St. Lukes anytime bago ang interview nya? What is the best time po para pumunta don?

Interview: Since 8:30 a.m. ang interview nya, what time sya dapat pumunta sa Embassy para pumila? Meron din akong nabasa sa instruction about Document Verification fee na PHP650.00. Tapos may nagpost dito sa VJ na hindi na kailangan. Totoo po ba yon?

Please advise.

Thank you so much in advance.

DV is already suspended. Do not pay it anymore. Let him get a CENOMAR instead, it replaces the DV fee.

He doesn't need to have an appointment for the medical.

I guess, going there on Tuesday-Thursday would be okay rather than going on a Monday since its the first working day of the week.

A lot of applicants would be there to have their medical.

Don't let him go there on a Friday since its the last working day of the week. A lot of people would probably try to finish their medical on those days.

Let him bring the necessary requirements needed for the medical and the money.

With the interview, the Embassy advises applicants to be there an hour early for their scheduled appointment. So, coming at the embassy by 7 or 7:30 Am would be enough.

Hope I have helped you...

Good luck to your husband! :thumbs:

no appointment for medical its first come first serve, he needs to bring ID 2 or 3 passport photos (2x2 white background) and letter from embassy along with his passport. He can do his medical anytime now they advise to do it at least one week before interview. I have heard some say its faster to do medical in afternoon but I dont know this for sure. Radz was there when they opened. Good Luck

And don't forget to bring Philippine currency worth $215. SLEC doesn't accept dollars nor credit/debit cards. And bring a black pen too. :)
