Anyone else having trouble getting through to the Phils on telephone or text messages?

Have you recieved your visa yet?

I have not and I've texted and emailed, and called for my visa but no respond from text and email.

I did get thru by phone and was just told to call back Monday or Tuesday for more update and information.

Call 632 528 6300 ext. 5184 or just call Delbros and they will switch you to ext. 5184....

I hope this helps.

My interview was March 21 and they have not released it to Delbros as of today 11 days and counting..... :angry:

I attended w/ my Fiance and we passed, but it did not speed up the visa delivery.

The Counsular has it on her desk and is looking for correct or missed information.

According to the Delbros web site the embassy released our visa late on Friday. I'm hoping she gets it tomorrow.

Yes, She has not been able to text me though she has tried many time. Phone calls work though. I have had a little trouble calling her, but I eventually get thru after several tries. It may just be where she is, dont really know why. I have a friend that is in Bulacan and he can text me or call without any problem, but I know of others that have had the same problems with texting.

Without a doubt it is a benefit to attend the interview with your fiance. I was told this by 2 immigration attorneys prior to my wifes interview in January. I wanted to go, but my workload at the time kept me from leaving. Very different from the present time now when I am twiddling my thumbs half the day! Lol, I am in the mortgage business.

When Delbros updated to show my wifes Visa was released by Embassy, she received it the next day in Cagayan de Oro.

Dean, I believe your fiance is in Cagayan de Oro? If so, we can't get through on the phone there either. My wife has been trying to call her family since last night and we can't get through.

Hi Glenn, she is from Dipolog, which is not too far from CDO. The power was out yesterday although I was able to talk to her on the phone. I dont know about now as she is at church for a day long event of some sort, which includes lots of eating as she was taking a lot of food with her. lol Those filipinos know how to do things right, no matter what they are doing it involves food.

I've got my fingers crossed for a early delivery, if so we are shooting for a Wednesday flight out.

hi guys,

I got my letter of appointment with the packet 4 yesterday. However, I found out that my middle name and number address are incorrect. I confirmed with my fiance that he had a typographical error with these. Will this be a big problem? I am so worried. How can I correct this? How can I correct this with the US embassy here in manila?

Please please..I need your advice...Im losing sleep with this.

Thank you.

Jeng

I would guess, this can be corrected at the embassy on interview day. Or you could call or email the embassy and ask. My experience with emailing them got me a response, but it took a couple weeks. Good luck!
