innocent.gifHi! After 12 days of waiting, my fiance finally got her visa. She received a clear plastic pouch containing her passport and the yellow envelope. But we are kinda worried because the yellow envelope was ripped diagonally on the corner, it was wrapped by a rubber band and where can we find the immigrant data summary? Is this normal? Should it be entirely sealed? I have seen the same issues in the forum, what can you say about this. Will this affect her arrival at the POE? Thanks.blush.gif

There should be a diagonal cut in the corner of the envelope. That is normal, if it is ripped open then you should contact the embassy to see about getting it re-packaged.

My brown envelope does not have a cut corner or anything, it's an all sealed envelope...I wonder why this differs from Consulate to Consulate :blink:

I'm sure that's not a problem...but it is interesting that you got one like that. I'm not even sure it's standardized for all consulates or should be. But as long as I've been reading about the visa packages from the Philippines, it's been like that.

Main thing is that it doesn't look like somebody tried to open it... :hehe:

The American Embassy in Manila uses envelopes that have one corner cut off.

You won't need an Immigrant Data Summary because you are a K-1er.
