Hi everyone!! Sorry for the late post! We had our interview last Monday and the consul said that we are good...I'm assuming that we were APPROVED :dance: ..They asked us to go to the releasing window and paid for Delbros.No documents were returned to us so it kinda made me worried a bit..Now, 3 days later and still no update about our VISA..I'm starting to panic now..after alot of failed calls to US embassy today,my fiance and I decided to stop by the embassy to see what's going on but we still didn't got a clear update about our case.they told us to wait till next week and give them a call back again.I'm hoping that we're not gonna be on AR coz I would really love to fly out with my Honey back to US in less than 2 weeks..

Hi Kayz,

I suggest going to the embassy this morning. Try around 9:30 or 10 AM. Just tell the guards at the window outside that you want to go inside and get the status of your visa. Once you get inside get in line at window X. I would also suggest you make the request in writing for the status of your visa or better yet I would even request expediting your visa processing and give them copies of you and your fiance's plane tickets back to the U.S. The only things they gave us back when they issued Sheryl's visa was our photos that we had given both USCIS and the USE so don't worry about that. Good luck and God bless.

Welcome to the thread, Dhen. Are you also joseph and dhevie? I saw this screen name added as no. 38 in your post. I was wondering why your interview date is scheduled on March 19 when your NOA2 date is March 13. Is that an error?

Kayz, it's not panic time yet. I was interviewed ahead of you on April 13 and my visa has not been delivered. Notice that embassy usually releases the visa to Delbros between 5-7 days after the interview. Very seldom do they release visa in three days. I would start worrying if Delbros does not deliver my passport on Day 10 and then the Sheriff can start panicking on Day 15 as he may have to run around naked around the embassy in protest. Better prepare your passport for a possible trip to Manila, Sheriff! :devil:

Mine's not there!!!! What's going on?????? People with the same date as me got May interviews. What's going on!!!!

Congrats Jeff on you interview date but now you got Orion worried :yes: Orion, try the website again after a few hours or days. Hopefully, the interview date will pop up.

Hi everyone, I have a problem I hope somebody can give me insight upon...

My girl just recently went to her medical interview last Tuesday, and they said they need to preform some additional sputum tests next week... They found an abnormality in her left lung...

I'm really panicking now, as we came so far, and now we have this big disappointment.

The thing is, they said they have to cancel her interview next week because it falls on the day of her interview.

My question is, can my girl still go to her interview if she hasn't received her medical clearance yet?

My girl went ot the embassy and spoke with a girl at the front window who was very rude and said we need to wait for her medical results before she can interview.

I'm thinking she was just in a bad mood that day... Can my girl still attend the interview on tuesday although she has not been cleared for her medical yet?

I appreciate your help,

I'm so depressed now because of this

Thanks,

May God bless everyone

Aloha kakou,

Long ago I saw this mentioned, but now I cannot find it - so your help is appreciated. I remember reading it is possible to go in to St. Lukes earlier than your assigned date for the two medical days. My questions are -

What conditions have to be fulfilled before this can happen??

Do you have to let St. Lukes know beforehand??

Can anything else be done early while in Manila - such as attending the CFO seminar??

Here's the short story - it is somewhat of a burden for Joan to get to Manila from Pampanga. Once I receive our NOA2, I am gonna go visit Joan again and hand-deliver the NOA2, financial documents and myself. She will be traveling to the airport to greet me, and I was thinking it would be nice if she could take care of other things while she is there.

Mahalo,

Bill and Joan

Hi Jello, good to hear from you again.

My girl just recently went to her medical interview last Tuesday, and they said they need to preform some additional sputum tests next week... They found an abnormality in her left lung... I'm really panicking now, as we came so far, and now we have this big disappointment. The thing is, they said they have to cancel her interview next week because it falls on the day of her interview.

My question is, can my girl still go to her interview if she hasn't received her medical clearance yet? My girl went ot the embassy and spoke with a girl at the front window who was very rude and said we need to wait for her medical results before she can interview.

I'm thinking she was just in a bad mood that day... Can my girl still attend the interview on tuesday although she has not been cleared for her medical yet?

Sorry to hear about this. Our old member Robhankins had to re-schedule his fiancee, Lilia's, interview when she had to undergo more tests at St. Lukes. Lilia was not allowed to be interviewed even if she showed up at the embassy at the appointed date. Embassy waited until her result was out. Rob re-scheduled Lilia’s interview by faxing and requesting the embassy for "Early Appointment" otherwise Lilia would have been sent to the back of the queue for interview.

I suggest that you read all of Rob's posts by clicking on the link below. You will have an idea what you will be going through in the next few weeks. I think he also posted his letter to the embassy requesting for early appointment interview. By the way, Rob changed his screen name to BigD LittleD so read the posts of BigD LittleD.

Okay, our interview is not on the website, but I emailed the embassy and received a reply that our interview is scheduled for June 5th and the package was mailed today. There is no date given for the medical. I guess it pays to be persistent.

hello everyone! just got back to cebu and finally had time to sit down at a pc. the interview went smoothly for us. the pre-screener asked my fiancee 2 questions and then asked me 3 questions. then i gave him the documents he asked for and pictures. we went and sat back down and then went to the CO when our number came up. The CO asked my fiancee only 3 questions and then told us that everything looks good and in order and to go back out and wait again to be called. then we went and paid the debros fee :) so with how everything went, im seeing that we are approved! yay! finally! we're just waiting for delbros to deliver the visa to us so we can head back to the US together.

Hey everyone!

Well I just spoke to Mirasol and her medical and vaccinations are done. She told me they took her passport, gave her a copy of her vaccination record (and another item I can't remember) and told her that the results would be forwarded to the Embassy. I guess that means she passed. I asked her if she inquired about whether she passed or at least that everything looked okay and she said, "I did not get the chance to ask." What? :o I guess we just have to assume that since they did not present any issues to her or require any further tests, that everything was good and she was passed. I am assuming they would not take her passport if there was a problem. If anyone has any different experience where they took the passport at the medical and then later told the beneficiary at the interview that she did not pass the medical, then let me know. Otherwise, I will just assume everything is good and progressing forward.

Scott (and Mirasol)

Yeah same on mine, they took my and my son's passport, and additional 2 pictures, signed the papers then they gave me my xray and vaccination records. I heard if there's some problems they will let the applicant know and ask for additional tests that they think needs to be done. Im happy that Marisol is done with her medical.

Aloha kakou,

Long ago I saw this mentioned, but now I cannot find it - so your help is appreciated. I remember reading it is possible to go in to St. Lukes earlier than your assigned date for the two medical days. My questions are -

What conditions have to be fulfilled before this can happen??

Do you have to let St. Lukes know beforehand??

Can anything else be done early while in Manila - such as attending the CFO seminar??

Here's the short story - it is somewhat of a burden for Joan to get to Manila from Pampanga. Once I receive our NOA2, I am gonna go visit Joan again and hand-deliver the NOA2, financial documents and myself. She will be traveling to the airport to greet me, and I was thinking it would be nice if she could take care of other things while she is there.

Mahalo,

Bill and Joan

Hello, Im from Angeles City Pampanga too, what part of town Joan lives? We might bump into each other :yes: . I had my medical done early, no you dont have to call or let SLEC know that you'll be there early just dont forget to bring the appointment letter that the embassy sent and show it to the guard<have it photocopied and bring 3 visa photos with no earrings on>. I intend to do the CFO seminar too while we were there for 2 days but since we got done really late on both days and I was exhausted I decided to do it some other time and drive there again.
