Getting ready for the interview

[Hank_ 9,174]

Thank you everyone! It was approved!! Now waiting for passport pick up at SM MOA!! Wish everything will be okay and hoping that passport is ready for pick up this week!! Although I am quite worried as they didn't ask for my DS-230!! Weird!!

You've all been great and helpful! Special mention to Hank thanks for the unlimited patience answering all the inquiries!! HAHA!!

To all applicants who's interview is in the future, Good luck and pray! Always works and just be confident and truthful in answering all questions.

Thank you! But you know this is kind of weird, they didn't ask for my DS-230!! But just in case fill them out both (Part I and II) ONLY PART 1 IS REQUIRED Because I've read some COs are asking for the Part II that's why I filled out mine.

I took screenshots and pasted it to MS Word! :-D

Thank you Memphis!! Got mine mine from Merriam Bookstore HAHA

Thank you!! It's your turn!! Good luck and eat heavy meal!

Thank you!! They didn't notice the year on my Birth cert. looks like it's readable for them YAY! I sure do hope Visa is on its way!

Thanks cjmc! The greeters were all scary from saying 'if one blank is left unanswered you will be asked to reschedule your appointment' that's painful!!

Thank you!! Weird but they didn't ask for it!! So many weirdness HAHA

I also bought these just in case:

Documents are in a long plastic envelope. Do think this type of envelop is okay? I'm very OC when it comes to things like this.

Am I missing some document?? Please let me know!!! I'm composing myself right now to be relax and confident!!! Thanks everyone in advance!!

Hi what is the deposit confirmation?

[haggarda.versoza 3]

Hi what is the deposit confirmation?

It's the receipt that you have paid for the Visa fee of $240 in PESO rate

[Hank_ 9,174]

Hi what is the deposit confirmation?

They paid the visa fee online so their confirmation of payment was sent to them in an email.

For those paying at BPI you bring in the deposit receipt that you printed out from the embassy website to BPI and you bring the receipt they return to you after payment with you to the interview.

If you paid via over the counter bank, it's the receipt that the teller that will give you. It's just a small piece of paper.

While if you paid online like me, you'll just get an email confirmation that you paid for the visa.

Those are the two possible ways to pay your visa fee and to Get a deposit confirmation ;-)

And it's needed because it a proof that you paid for the visa fee

That is a question you should ask on the IRAN forum not the Philippine forum

Thank you so much wish you the best of luck. and the friend who told me to ask the question in Iran forum,thanks for the help but all the documents are the same and I just wanted to know what it is!!!

[DavenRoxy 1,073]

He suggested the Iran forum because the embassy there may not require the receipt as the USEM does. Good luck!
