A few days ago my fiancees visa went from out for delivery to no status available and has been that way every since. I have been trying to track it on 2go using the uid, visa number and case number and nothing has been coming up. She was going to call the embassy later today, but just a minute ago I checked her email which she never checks...and saw an email from 2go with a waybill number completely different from anyway I've seen visas tracked through them. CEAC (still shows issued), CGIFEDERAL, and USTRAVELDOCS still show no status. Just thought I'd throw that out there, she also never recieved any kind of text or phone call. Delivery is for Saturday....yeeheeey.

2go is famous for not calling the recipient. If you are waiting for your visa to be delivered and it states that it is out for delivery contact your local 2go office that serves your area to see if it is there. Otherwise it may sit for days and be sent back. Just my recommendation from experience.

Now I know and will pass it on, just the tracking is a random number not any of the ways normally used to track visas....not according to any threads here or on their site. Might be it has to do with here living on Cebu and way in the middle of nowhere...either way.

Hey guys. Congratulations on receiving your visa. Welcome to These United States.

I see your traveling through Guam. Here is some information I have been able to gather over some time now on what to expect. Hope it helps smooth the ride.

What to expect if traveling through Guam and then onto Hawaii.

When you arrived in Guam, look for the immigration counters (print off a map [see below] and look for the red immigration boxes at the ground level so you are familiar with their location) before heading to your connecting gate/flight. If your window to board your next flight is short be sure to walk briskly to immigration. Many travelers from Manila will have only a window of about an hour and 20 minutes before their next flight. Once you arrive, the immigration officer will ask for your visa packet and your passport. They may ask you to go to another document examination room. In this room, the agent will photocopy your passport and enter some additional information in their computer to generate your I-94. Hold onto the I-94 as you will need this for additional processing of documents once you arrive in the US. After a few minutes you will be called to come forward and get your I-94 and passport. They will emphasized that you will need to get married within 90 days or else you will need to return back to the Philippines.

After leaving immigration be sure to find your gate information and pass through security on your way. Everyone must undergo security to reboard. Check your ticket for your flight to Hawaii as it may contain the phrase "SSSS" (Secondary Security Screening Selection), which requires the TSA agent to check carry-on bags and an additional inspection of you.

When you arrive in Hawaii check the gate monitors to see which gate you will be departing from as it is customary to hop on the shuttle bus going to other terminals for your domestic flight.

Be sure you retrieve your luggage to take with you on the bus and recheck them in again with the airlines that you will be traveling to the mainland US on. You must clear Customs in Hawaii before moving on to your next destination.

Flight times: Manila to Guam is nearly 4-hour trip, then Guam to Hawaii is a 7-hour trip, Hawaii to east coast is a 9.5 hour trip, time to Chicago is 8.5 hours and the west coast is about 5.5 hours.
