I have 2 dates for when the embassy received my petition. On is September 19, the other is the September 26. Since it was sent to the Embassy September 18 I am guessing September 26 is the correct date. Anyway, Jenny received packet 3 on October 17, 22 days after the Embassy received the petition. It seems like the group of petitions received before us took 6 weeks. Just wanted to pass on what I think is good news.

Manila embassy only issues only packet 4. Not packet 3. However, I have seen some of the Phils people receive some type of intoductory letter from the embassy letting them know what to expect next. Maybe this is what Jenny received. Still exciting though.

Glad to hear that Manila is picking up the pace. I wonder if they will start updating their petition interview list, it doesn't look like it has been updated since July.

When Claudeth went through the received the packet from the embassy at the end of March and had her interview at the beginning of June so hopefully Manila is moving back towards rapid visa processing. Maybe they aren't doing so many professional visas any more.

Good luck to all going through the visa process. :thumbs:

i've seen some post they received a letter from Embassy that it has received their petition. is that what is being referred to as package 3? at the Manila Embassy I was under the impression there is no package 3 for K-1 visa. i thought a K-1 only receives package 4, fiance visa appointment package, that is online at the Embassy website.
