This question goes out to all the Philippine interviewers. And their experences,After the interview how long does it take on the average to get your passport back, And is there a quicker way in getting it once you have been approved? I am just wondering if we can pick it up at the embassy or we have to use the courier?

I got my visa 10 days after my interview. (I lived in Pasig) You can track it at the 2go site using your MNL #.

You can also email the USEM to know the status of your approved visa. If you do, be sure to include beneficiary's full name, passport number & case number.

I emailed them at >>> ivmanilareplies@state.gov
