Hi,

For the IR1-CR1 filer, how long after case complete you received an email from NVC regarding the interview appointment at the US embassy?

Also, what do we need to show when about to schedule medical at SLMC-Manila?

Thank you!

I actually got case complete and one week later I called the NVC just to pester them. Surprisingly enough they told me."oh your interview is in 3 weeks" so it was pretty fast. I would have to say it goes case by case. And everyone is different. Good luck, and call the NVC daily to get updates.

Hey looks like we got our case completes just a few days apart. Congrats!

I am a bit of a stats nerd and compiled data from a Case Complete to Interview Spreadsheet (I cant find the link right now because I'm at work)... I compiled 210 Philippines cases dating back from 2013 to now and the average time was 47 days from case complete to interview date. That puts us somewhere around the last week in January or early February for the interview. I would expect a longer wait then average due to the holiday season. Anyways, that may provide a little bit of insight :)

Best of luck and keep calling the NVC for updates!

First of all, I do not know how to post a question so here I am "replying" to post my question. Please accept my apologies!

I just got a word from my fiance about his interview experience. While on the third stage (interview with the american consul), the consul "can't open his case." Has anyone experienced that? Is it just a system problem? The consul asked him to come back at 1pm. It is 12nn there right now and I am sooooo nervous. I hope they get to resolve whatever the problem is. I do not see any reason why our case will be denied.

Thanks in advance!
