Good Afternoon everyone from the east coast.

My fiancee received in the mail a letter, one letter only from US Embassy in Manila, stating that you are eligible to schedule an appointment at the U.S. Embassy once you have paid the fee at BPI.

She never got a packet of instructions. Just that one letter. So, when we scheduled the appointment for her. It asked her where she wanted her files sent in Makati. We picked a location and we are not sure about the location. What exactly are they going to send to your house or/and location that you picked for them to send you documents.

Would that be all of your supporting documents, passport and Visa (if approved)?

That one letter is good enough, that letter has your Manila case number, you can pay for the visa fee at BPI then wait 24 hours before you schedule your interview online, she needs to bring her passport when doing so, then she can have her medical at St. Luke's after paying a fee. Make a copy of that letter from the embassy.

I really appreciate all the information you gave me. I guess it is the Embassy's way of saving the trees by having people download the PDF file.

I just went with the flow and told her to pay for her visa application at BPI and then I scheduled her appointment a month a head of time so I can get her the paperwork needed.

I know that majority of the paperwork has to be done by her especially the Visa Applications but I felt that since I know what the US government wants then I just took it upon myself to complete the forms and just send the forms to her with no signature and told her to wait till he consulate instructs you to sign them in front of him/her.

I am putting a very thick binder together because I don't want to have them deny her visa. she is a good person. Helps people everyday. She doesn't need the extra headache from them because she missed one piece of paper or a signature.

They don't mail a packet everything is done online.
