Congratualtions Jared. I know you know the answer to this. I called the 202-663-1225 number today. I had already learned that the file was sent electronically on April 2nd. The person I got was less then knowledgeable and redundit. She just kept repeating that the embassy would contact her when they are ready. So the question is, can I call the number pay the money and set an interview time without the embassy contacting her? How will you know when the embassy finds May's medical records? Just curious.

Thank you all for your congratulations, I'm in pretty good spirits about this!! :thumbs: :thumbs:

Cary & Jim - You should wait a few more days and then call the Manila Embassy to schedule your interview:

http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwh3238.html <<-- instructions are here, it's $18 for you to call.. Also please keep in mind when they ask if your fiance(e) has received the invitation letter you can just say "Yes" even if it's not true.. They'll still schedule the interview for you..

For me.. I'm going to call here to follow up with this number that someone else posted in the Philippine's regional threads.. "To reach the immigrant section of the USEM, where your bumbling case worker's desk is located, call 011-63-2-301-2000 extension 5184 or 5185." I plan on waiting a day, and then calling tomorrow evening (Wed)..

She is doing it tomorrow and taking it in on Monday or Tuesday to get the visa.. We finally got a Doctor's appt for 5-5-10 a week before the interview..Doesn't she need 2 copys of that form with the same barcode on it after you press print? If they make her do another one at the bank will they give her 2 copys ?

Yes, she needs 2 copies of DS-156 and I think they give only one copy at the bank. I'm not sure why you need 2 copies, but that's what it says in the instructions.

Carol faxed the Packet 3 today, so I'm hoping for an interview date in late May. The final destination of the RUMRUNNER is in sight. It will be sad to disembark, but our journey will continue on to calmer seas. It will be a great day when our SO arrives at the POE.

BTW...who is going to adopt the Parrot after we disembark the RUMRUNNER? :whistle:

I was thinking when AOS time rolls out we'll start a thread in that forum and all go there, no matter when exactly we file AOS
