ceac tracking is not the most accurate and up to date way of tracking the visa.

TRACK YOUR VISA/PASSPORT AT THE EMBASSY

State Dept. visa tracking: https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx? (not updated or as accurate as the USEM website)

Here is a link for requirements for receiving your passport with the visa, there are also options for tracking the status of your visa/passport is currently. You can also change delivery options.

If your application was temporarily refused under Section 221(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, you can now check the status of your application online.

AP cases meant their file are under review or you lack or need to update certain documents like nbi. If no documents were required then maybe they're just trying to match up the interview with the papers they have on file.

Hank I've also monitored through those options however passport tracking said, passport not on file. when I called the embassy they said that the visa is printed but still with the consul . ljmp_10 said maybe they're completing our batch before releasing with 2go. Last May17 was loaded, probably bcoz we invaded the May 17 slot. We were originally scheduled for May 13. Anyway they gave ljmp some good news hoping it would be released either today or tom. I'll try doing the pdos even without the visa...

Hi guys! As RitzF2A mentioned above, i called the embassy early this morning and told me that our visa is already printed since monday (May 20) but not yet released from the embassy. As instructed by a 2go agent, i called 4:20pm today and GOOD NEWS they got my visa packet already!!! It will probably arrive at Pampanga tomorrow and i will pick it up at Dau branch. I also tried to track my visa packet at 2go website, my visa is there already. You may try it too RitzF2a here's the link http://supplychain.2go.com.ph/customersupport/etrace/index.asp

Goodluck! Hope to receive our visas tomorrow (mine and that of my daughter's)

That is why CEAC is not the best for tracking, it will say "issued" but that doesn't mean much, information from the embassy website is better (logging on will give details also). If they say it has been printed then the next step is prepping it for pickup by 2GO .... then DELIVERY!!

Many do CFO without the visa then come back later to get the sticker, CFO does want to see your passport and get copies of the bio page so not sure if they will let you do CFO being your passport is with the embassy.
