Embassy Letter but now I am lost

[Rosie and David 1]

Each new step of the way and Rosie and I get a little lost (laughing)

We got all the way to Our APPLICATION getting to Manila.

Now they sent a letter to Rosie say to READ a web sight with details of

what is needed for the exam. Fine and dandy.

But I thought she was to get a Packet ...Packet 3 and packet 4 (so now I am lost)

The letter has this in it:

You are eligable to be scheduled for a Visa interview.

You may call to request an appointment date. THERE IS A FEE FOR CALLING.

You should compile all required documents and undergo a Medical exam before

your scheduled interview.

IMPORTANT PLEASE READ THE INFORMATION IN THIS web sight www.manilaembassy .......

Heres my problem of hard to understand

We need to pay fees ..should we talk all the interview papers to the BDO Bank since I dont know

what they will want?

On the letter is the Visa TYPE and Case NUMBER ... is this letter all we need to get Rosie physical ?

Or do we first SETUP an INTERVIEW DATE and they send Rosie something .. with that information to take

to St.LUKE ?

Has anyone gone over and spent only two week with their WIFE 2b while she does both the exam and the

INTERVIEW .. is it hard to get both done in that time frame ?

Any help on this last and final LEG of our Journey will be helpful.

Thanks

Rosie and David

Tbe case number you received from NVC is all you need to get the medical. NEVER count on Packet 3 to be delivered, you are way behind the curve if you waited until now. When you file the petition, go to the website of the embassy handling the case and DOWNLOAD packet 3. When they say "you can schedule an interview" you should pick up the phone immediately and do so, your packet 3 information should be done long before you receive your NOA2.

OK, so you lost a few weeks in the process. Get packet 3 now and start to work on those documents, get an appointment for the medical. Hvae you received a police document for her yet? She needs to go for that now. Anyway, good luck. Never wait for the government, get ready and jump all over the chance when it comes. After you finish the Packet 3 information, immediately start on the AOS package so you will have that ready when she arrives. Attach her vaccination supplement, your marriage license and copy of her passport/visa and send it off the day after you get married. DO NOT WAIT

Hi...The letter (from USEM)that your SO received indicates that you are eligible now to set / schedule for an interview date by calling USEM....anytime from now you can tell your SO to have her medical..it should be atleast 1 week before her interview date..

All the forms that the USEM required can be all downloaded now..

Why not try to post this thread at the Philippines forum, I think you can get a lot and better responses..

Goodluck....

you will want a Manila consulate specific answer.... moving to consulate forum

[wizardfitz 13]

you should have done your medical once you received your noa2, i did.

u need the confirmation letter from the Manila Embassy to be able to pay for the visa interview fee through BDO or Citibank

you can go ahead and schedule your interview if you like, in my case we didnt, we expected a delay since i had a history of tb and knew i would end up going through the sputum test. but if her medical is clear, then go ahead and schedule it, if she has to go through the test st lukes will rescheduled your embassy interview for you

oh and there is no packet 3 anymore for phils
