Doing the k1 fiance petitioning is pretty tough. You really gotta do a lot of researching before you can make up a complete list of stuff you need to put in the packet. Don't worry Francesca. Things will turn out good soon.just provide the additional evidence theyre asking from you. They'll get to it fast soon as they receive it.

Thats what we are going to do, we got approved on 9 so we are going to start calling tomorrow. Its good to have your case number as early as you can and then you can track it on your own.

Lol every step along the way I keep thinking if this step is done the rest is easy but you are right, every step brings new challenges.

Every embassy have their own rules when it comes to K1. Some like mine schedules the interview for you so we have no say in that.

I am no expert in this so don't quote me on this but from what I heard you can schedule your interview once the petition arrives at the embassy and the status say ready. You have to fill out the DS 160 and pay the fee first of course. I can't find the link right now but I saw a few post when they didn't get the packet at all and went ahead with everything.

Anyway you should check the Philippines sub and also this website which is specifically for Philippines K1 visas http://dennyeyberg.wix.com/filipino-am-visa

EDIT: This page specifically say you do not have to wait for the letter so I guess thats your answer lol http://dennyeyberg.wix.com/filipino-am-visa#!manila-process-usem/c95x

You can't schedule an interview till such time that you have your case number from NVC. Once you have it then you can print the visa payment receipt, pay the fee for the interview, wait 24 hours, schedule the interview, complete the DS-160, schedule your medical, schedule or think about when you will do the CFO. Most of the forms ask for your case number so without it you can't move forward.

Get the Embassy Letter and start gathering the needed documents CENOMAR, NBI, BC, PASSPORT etc.

Every step for processing is at my website. If you go there and follow the instructions you will have no problem passing your interview. BUT, you have to take the first step. Use the link below at the twisting arrow. It's FREE :joy::joy::joy:

I spend many hours compiling the information so that it is easy and without "gotchas" for the Philippine processing. I read the forums and update the website for those who are processing before you so you know what to expect. If a form changes, I have the latest forms.

Whether you use it or not... I wish you a smooth journey getting your visa.
