hey MJ3lasvegas,

My wife never paid her data verification fee. She got all of her documents (birth certificate and our marriage license) straight from the NSO office. Most people here on VJ will advice you to pay for DV because it is the safest route and not risk any delays. I had the same question prior to my wife's interview but i told her that if she needed to pay it, she'll just have pay it in the embassy. But they never asked her to and she got a pink slip only. To answer your other question, u should pay the DV at least 4 weeks in advance.

This is info straight from the website if you haven't read it yet! Note: read the highlighted)

Applicants whose visa eligibility is dependent upon their marital status (i.e. K-1, K-3, CR-1, IR-1, F-1 and F2-B categories) will normally need to have their documents verified through the National Statistics Office (NSO) before the U.S. Embassy in Manila can issue the visa. Those with a delayed birth or death certificate or only local civil registrar copies of such documents may need to have their documents verified.

In order to avoid unnecessary delay in the visa issuance process, the U.S. Embassy in Manila strongly encourages applicants in the categories mentioned above to pay the document verification fee prior to their immigrant visa interview. Payment can be made through any Metrobank location. The cost of the document verification is PhP 650 per applicant. For specific instructions on how to pay the document verification fee, please click here. If you are unable to pay for the document verification before your immigrant visa interview, you may be asked to pay the fee on the day of your interview. Please note that if you pay on the day of your interview, there will be a delay of one to two weeks in the processing of your application.
