Hi there.. all you need to fill up online is DS 160 and since you got your MNL number you can do your medical without waiting for the package from embassy..

please follow Hank's link and you'll be on the right track of your visa journey... http://visaconnection-philippines.com/#

Good luck!!!

You need the DS-160. You don't need the DS-260 nor the DS-261.

Here is the link to the Embassy's K-1 instructions letter: http://photos.state.gov/libraries/manila/325288/packets/K1%20and%20K2%20Interview%20Preparation%20Instructions%20-%20English%20_10%20October%202013_.pdf

Robb&Ann's site is an excellent source of information for Manila K-1ers. Here's the link:

Only the DS-160.

You very likely will not receive a letter from the embassy, PhilPost is good at not delivering ;) . There is a link to the embassy instructions letter below... follow the flashing arrow.
