I received today the notice of approval through email...i really dont understand it...

how many times is our case approved?

my fiance called last october 18 informing me that our case has sent to NVC., and so happy cos we received our approval mail and our case number MNL2006*... last october 23. it was stated on that mail that this would be sent to the embassy where the fiancee lives in a week.

so what's the real score? i need a clarification bout the mail i received in my email, would it meant that it left the NVC to be sent to USEmanila??

we're both excited now!

thanks to the info ive read here about other things :) wanna learn more...

It means the service center approved the petition... not the visa. The NVC will prepare your file and send it to Manila. Then, Manila will send you the infamous "packet 3" & "packet 4." After that you get the interview date and then you get to see your fiance. Its sounds like a lot to go but you're getting close!!! Good luck!!
