The process can be confusing but I have taken the time to help folks like you who are applying in the Philippines. To answer your question of what's next start reading and understanding what is next for USEM Manila here http://dennyeyberg.wix.com/filipino-am-visa#!manila-process-usem/c95x. The information is FREE.

Sometimes they will send you a confirmation and sometimes not. You should have printed off a confirmation page once you were finished booking the appointment. There also was a questions if you would like to have the email confirmation sent to you, but you would have had to have made that selection. All this information is at my website.

Hi everyone

I also file for my fiancé in December. Our approval expires in June. NVC send our case to the consulate of Algiers where my fiancé is. We created a profile. We check our case status under immigrant visa. Its READY. It says created on 3/3/2016 and updated 3/20/2016. We have been calling the embassy of algiers. They say the case is not updated to email IV-DVAlgiers@state.gov. I did. I still haven't receive any responses. This waiting is frustrating. My fiancé is checking the post office and his emails everyday.
