Ok well the process for the visa appointments are a drag the website doesnt fully work, and its hard to contact anyone in regards to it.........

Direct quote from USEMBASSY/Manila

I saw this quote and it refers to our situation because these went into effect Dec. 1st 2010, and our interview is for Dec 6th, 2010.

"Immigrant visa applicants who have been scheduled by the NVC for a visa appointment at the Embassy are required to visit the online appointment website to register their delivery address."

http://www.ustraveldocs.com/ph (you cant register a new address as well as their online chat doesnt work properly.)

Anyone else running into this problem?

I read about the new procedures earlier this morning, but I'm not far enough along in the process yet to try it out.

Is this the page where you tried to register the delivery address? http://www.ustraveld...nstruction.aspx

I can get all the way to the point where they ask for the passport number and case number, etc. ( can't proceed further because i don't have case # yet).

I do find it odd that it's a .COM website and not a state department or USCIS website (.GOV, etc.).

Hey George-

Yeah man, very frustrating that they implement these new things that don't work effectively. The passport #....? WHO's passport mine or hers? Case Type Number??? What is this.. little more detail on where to obtain this number.. in our case it would be typical the number starting with MNL.. going to save us a headache and just call the contact number they have for out there.. i will post in a few minutes about the information they give us.. >.<
