Interview all completed and APPROVED!! I was at the embassy in Sydney for 3 hours as they were a little busy but it was all worth it in the end to get the little piece of paper that says approved!! I got an email today telling me that the visa has been issued and I should receive the package soon. I left them with an express post envelope...that means that I should have my visa package tomorrow right??

fingers crossed so that I can book my flights ASAP!!

Yeah, I couldn't believe it. I wasn't expecting to get it until early June.

Home delivery - I do live quite close to the embassy so maybe that's why it was so quick. Either that or I just had a really efficient CO.

Hello everyone! I'm kind of skeptical because I was initially schedule by the NVC on June 26, 2014. But I was hoping for an earlier interview date so I was informed that I can reschedule online through ustraveldocs.com/ph . So when my case left the NVC on May 12, I patiently waited and monitored the online scheduling for slots to be available. And luckily I was able to schedule on the 27th of May. Then I called the US Embassy, they said my case/files might not yet be ready for interview on that day (May 27). What I'm worried about is, will they (the US Embassy) accommodate me since my interview is originally on June 26. Has anyone did schedule earlier as to their supposed interview date? How did it go?
