Hello, My fiance was approved June 24 (Friday) for K1 visa. I searched and searched, but came up empty handed if there is a way to track when she may expect to receive her pp/visa? Her delivery address is in Manila. I know the courier is 2go, but that's about all I know. Can anyone shed some light on how to track or if it's even possible. For those who've been there/done that, how long did it take from your interview day until you got your visa?

Thanks.... overly excited here :whistle:

i dont have the visas yet i was interviewed 6/22

just go to 2go website click e track and then enter your manila case number

perhaps try calling the iv unit on monday ask about the status of your visa,from there you can start tracking it online.goodluck

I already tried that but it's asking for a 9 digit number, the case number is 13... Am I clicking the wrong "e track" link? Where you successfully able to track yours?

Thanks for your help

We've already purchased our tickets to enter the US on July 25th, her approval was on June 24th so it seems there should be no problem. I keep forgetting she has to attend the CFO seminar after she receives the visa. hmm

Good luck to all of us waiting :thumbs:

.....

just to share....

what i did was....

called the US embassy.... inquired if visa has been "printed"....

once printed, they forward it to the courier and i got mine a day after it was printed out....

that time, from date of interview to receive was 7 calendar days.......

my mailing address then was a little less than 300 kilometers north of manila.......

good luck to all....

keep us posted.....

Mine took almost 3weeks, picked up at 2go branch. Call the IV unit for the status and 2go once the embassy informed you it's with the courier already. It's best to call them rather than wait since mine was almost missed out if I didn't call, they told me it took too long due to "error on visa stamp".. They would have not expedited without my frequent follow ups after knowing there was an error.. Anyway, over and done with. :) thankful I got it at the right time :)
