Hello everyone! I need some advise on this please.

I had my interview last Feb 3, but i didn't have my CENOMAR, so USEM advised me to request for a copy from NSO Pasay which I

did the ff day. The week after I checked with NSO and they said doc has been forwarded to the USEM. The guy from the USEM

during my interview told me that if my cenomar is cleared then I'd receive my passport with Visa in three weeks time. It's been a

month now since my interview but i still don't have it yet. Does it normally take that long for the visa to arrive? I am starting to

worry. Can anybody please tell me if you have the same waiting period?

Thank you!

I thought you'll personally take the required docs to 2Go and then they'll forward it to USEM? I could be wrong..

Hi, my fiance had his interview on the same day as yours and was also asked for CENOMAR reverification which he applied from NSO Pasay on that same day. Our CEAC status went "READY" last Thursday at 3pm and "ISSUED" on Friday at 4pm. As of yesterday morning, passport status via USTRAVELDOCS. com was:

Passport Status :

Passport has been received from the consular section, and is currently being processed for delivery

Yesterday also around 4pm, he called 2Go MOA to check if they received his passport/visa/packet but they don't have it yet so we hope that they will receive it today from USEM.

So, from Feb 3 - March 1, it took us a month to have it issued... Have you check your CEAC status?

Yup...just checked on it now and it's still Admin Processing. Thought it would only take 3 weeks the most, but it didn't turn out that way. Oh well, guess I just have to wait a few more days. Patience patience and more patience.

Let me know when your fiance gets his visa, ok?

Thank you!
