Hello guys!.. just wanted to share my experience here during my K1 interview last 19th of January thinking this will be of help also for those who are on their way with the same type of VISA...K1.

OK, my fiance was with me during this day, my appointment time was 630 AM .. so have to get to the embassy an hour before the time, was 530am and already lot of applicants were there (thought were too early hahaha)..so we fall in line, just have to make sure which line you fall for there are like 2 lines for non immigrants, immigrants and for seafarers visa...Guys, there are security guards who can assist you just in case you're not sure of what your doing, they're approachable so, no worries..just like we did hehe

When the time came for the applicants to get inside the embassy, there is that staff who will be asking your copy of interview appointment,copies of DS-156,DS-156K and DS-157(make 2 copies of these forms),and your passport and youll be asked also bout your medical record from St Lukes if youre given in CD copy or envelope...then you may get inside the embassy for the X-RAY.. HERE, everything youre bringing will be checked and when was our turn...the cards that I brought as one of our evidence were seen... ITS THE MUSICAL cards..WE DIDNT KNOW. GUYS. IF YOU HAVE MUSICAL CARDS PLEASE DO NO BRING THE CARD, I SUGGEST JUST THE ENVELOPE WITH ITS STAMPS...they didnt let it in so my fiance had to go out to leave the musical cards.. thanks much to my ever supportive fiance..;)

So, after the x-ray, can proceed to the next line to get our PRIORITY NUMBER..THE ONE AND ONLY NUMBER that they will give you and have to watch on the QUEUING BOARD TO BLINK with corresponding WINDOW NUMBER (signifies your TURN).The teller will ask you some docs and ask you also to DROP YOUR NUMBER TO WINDOW #39...now after dropping time for the WAITING...:) PLEASE ALWAYS WATCH FOR YOU NUMBER TO BLINK ON THE QUEUING BOARD so not to miss it for the next window for there are so many applicants, we shouldnt forget,,,

After #39 wait for your next window # that will be for FINGER SCANNING.. then after, wait again for the next window number for the FILIPINO interviewer, which will just ask you the original CENOMAR, NSO LIVE BIRTH CERT, NBI and will ask some of your evidences( just to see).. Then wait again for another window number for the EMBASSY CONSUL interview. gotta be good CONFIDENT, SMILING AND HONEST here guys... Mine interview was so simple and smooth as my fiance was with me and got APPROVED!;)..

You will know from the consul if youre approved or what.. if approve theyll ask you again to wait for the final window # and this will be about how youre goin to get your VISA be delivered....then you may go home...

*ALWAYS LISTEN TO EVERY WINDOW IS TELLING YOU WHAT TO DO AFTER THEIRS* ....:)

Thats all my fiance and I went through guys and i hope this helps you some how... GOODLUCK IN OUR JOURNEY/// GOBLESS!

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” - Corinthians
