Hello everyone,

Yes it's starting March 15, 2006 ( sorry about the year previously mentioned)Cenomar was added as a requirement for submission to the embassy together with all the other documents. Before it's the embassy who will be requesting NSO but last month they changed it again. My friend got approved she is waiting for her visa to be delivered.

Have a great day.:-)

ive never seen this off the front page ever was shocked to see it fall off. anyways 14 days left till yove's interview. question she was goin to stay in her province up north. but i think she would get her visa faster staying in her apt, in makati what do the masses think or know ?

I've been asking the same question recently and here's what I found out. Your right, she should get her visa faster if she stays in/close to Manila. From what I understand, the courier (DELBROS) service takes about 3-5 days delivery in Manila, 5-7 to other major cities (Cebu, Legaspi, Bocolad, etc...), and 7-10 days for other provinces. After the interview, when you are paying the courier, you can tell them where you want the visa delivered. Hope that helps. I'm getting excited too, 24 days until my wife's interview!

Heyyyyyy, that's a bad omen. We still have not heard from the U.S.E. one way or the other. We hope to receive a text from Delbros today or tomorrow. I will update you once I know.

Thanks,

Danoco,

This is how I understand it to work (anybody, feel free to correct me), in most cases, they make you pay delbros and keep your passport. That alone is no guarantee that you have been approved. Some times it can be delayed while they receive the CENOMAR (upto several weeks) or it could be something else (you just don't know). If you are missing docs then they will give you a white slip of paper (A6 sized) with an itemizied list of docs you need to provide and/or the generic "Wait until you hear from us". If you get that, you know you are on AR. Still, they keep your passport and have you pay delbros.

I have seen a post here (I wish I could find the link) where she paid and gave the PP and several months later still no visa (only the run around - I do think this is a rare case tho).

If you are lucky enough to have a kind Consul who let's you know you're approved or if you can peek to see if he/she grabs the white/green striped sticker or they tell you once you pay delbros then that is even better.

I realize it's only been 3 days since the interview, but everytime we text delbros it's "Still not released" while another girl who had her interview at the same time already got a text from delbros.

For the record, my fiancee was given 1) a pinkslip, 2) Delbros receipt and 3) Delbros customer service questionier.

Good catch Danoco. I have made the correction below. Good luck Charsiimogen on April 6!

Sorry Rob, I agree about the omen. I'll change your status to "??"

I read Toobig's post in another thread that his fiancee is out of AR. Congratulations!

Hi Wind! We had a pre-trial conference at the court yesterday and another hearing is scheduled on May 23. Looks like I'm gonna be here for a while. How's your fiancee's BC coming along? Have you set another appointment with the embassy?

I agree with Bobsled. Paying the Delbros delivery fee is no guarantee that a visa is forthcoming. One of the US embassy letters even has a notice that says the Delbros delivery fee will be refunded in case the visa is not issued.

Some applicants put on AR get the white sheet where it shows the documents that still need to be submitted to complete the visa processing. Others do not get the white sheet but are put on AR nevertheless (for more background check probably). So nothing is really guaranteed until the visa is in our hands.

I'll see if I can scan the white sheet (the AR form) that I received and link it here. I'll do that within the week.

Rob, thanks for asking about my AR. I'm still battling it out in court :crying: The ball is in my hands. Embassy cannot do anything until I give them my second annulment decree.

Update:

fiancee recieved packet on 4-3-06

a whole 6 weeks before interview, which is actually pretty good breathing room if we didn't already have everything we will need. I am mailing my packet to her this week. What mail services did you guys use to send your packets to your fiancees?

also in light of all the unclear ARs or unclear approvals, i think everyone should instruct their fiancee not to leave the consul's presence until they ask weither or not they have been approved. I am telling my fiancee that the moment the consul tells her "alright go back outside and wait for your number" that i want her to ask if she has been approved and if a visa will be mailed out shortly. I don't want her to leave the consul's presence until she asks. Whenever i have read of people asking at the window if they have been approved, or why they got a white slip, i always hear that the window person says "i don't know". I am so sick of hearing about people walking out of the interview literally not knowing weither they were approved or not. I can only imagine it is a terrible feeling and i want to know one way or the other. Seriously does the consul think its not his job to let the fiance know? or maybe it is just that they don't like to deal with questions and would rather have the person at the window give the fiancee the "bad news"

I really hope now that the embassy is requiring cenomar at interview, that it will mean that they will not be requesting one on their own. So this should reduced AR's since it seems like a lot of times the delay is just for cenomars.

Ryecatcher,

I'm not sure that the consul has any obligation to tell the girls, it may just piss him off. I would reccomend she look as best she can to see it there is the green/white stripe sticker on her folder.
