Thank you. I have the same difference between the websites as others. May 25 NOA 1 on one and May 31 on the other. I updated my timeline here and it says 173 days, but I thought it was 179 days already.

 

Good luck to everyone. I guess I go to a NOA 2 discussion now. Thank you to all the people posting regularly here. The information is really helpful and it was good to read about everyone else's experience. I didn't post much, but I'm sure other people are reading the posts like I was.

Oh trust me, there are so many people just reading/reacting and messaging behind the scenes. That's what makes this place so valuable for anyone and everyone going through this process. I cannot imagine doing this process without VJ, I spent about 1.5 months just twiddling thumbs and googling so...

Also, there is a sub-forum for the Philippines here on VJ that you should be a part of. It's a good place to read what others are experiencing which will only prepare you for your interview.

Hi all, we finally get our approval!!

 

NOA1: 5.25 (new website)

NOA2:11.20

 

we got the email notification, and both new and old websites update our approval status too!!

 

good luck to everyone and hope you all get it approved very sooooooon!!

Congratulations and thanks for completing your profile. Since I no know what country the beneficiary is in let me help you out with advance information for the interview with some notes from other users to help. You did complete the profile. The country should be the country in which you will interview in.

Visa Payment System information:

 

There is indeed a cash pay option but i wanted to do it online so i clicked on the "provide feedback" option and explained my situation and they said to wait 24 hours as well! Here is what they said about the cards: "In addition, please note that our payment gateway is set-up to process the following branded cards: 

 

1. VISA Debit 

2. VISA Electron 

3. MasterCard Debit 

4. Maestro 

 

Just because a card is branded with VISA/MasterCard does not automatically mean it is a debit card. Many of the refusals we have seen are V/MC branded Credit Cards which we never accept. 

 

In addition, there are a number of domestic debit card schemes that are available in the region. Each of these card schemes must have the following features to be accepted online: 

1. Co-branded with VISA/MasterCard(Maestro) – i.e. they must have one of these logos on the card. 

2. Contain a CVV number (this is the three digit number on the back of the card). 

 

If they do not have both these features, they will not be accepted. "

Congratulations!

 

Many of our answers are predicated on the information you supply in your profile. When we look at the left column and can't determine your timeline or your Embassy it's hard for us to give you a factual answer. If you look at the profile of others here, they have a flag for their country, so it makes it easy for us to reply as we can quickly determine your Embassy. Our answers will sometimes be tailored to a specific Embassy hence the reason for you to complete your profile.

 

So, if you could help yourself out and complete your profile that sure would help us out when we want to reply to your question with factual information.

 

Go to the top right of this page select your name (it's on the upper right-hand corner)>my profile>[below your picture on the right column] edit my profile. Scroll to the bottom and fill in "Immigration Info". There now we can better serve you.

 

Thanks

Thanks! just edit it!

I am Chinese but live in Germany. Since planing to have interviews also here, I hope to label my case as 'Germany' is right!

 

Thanks!

EXCELLENT. fast turn around time.  Was leary because Jamaica works slow but didn't want to say it to you.  Did her request 2 copies as @NicholeT

suggested.  May be needed for interview.
