My fiancee has her interview scheduled for 10/24/2019 at 6:45. 

 

We have asked the embassy to sent Passport Visa to 2GO Mall of Asia in Pasy.  

 

What have other experienced from timeline perspective, as hope to be able to travel to the CFO for the passport stamp and I am flying in on November 1st .  

 

Regards....

Very optimistic and I truly doubt it will arrive in time .  Ours was 13 days and that was unusually fast

MOA normally is 2-3 days after the visa is ISSUED (CEAC status) .. that is the quickest location for receiving your visa package)=.

When my fiancé did hers in June, I want to say it took 10-14 days and that was with her picking it up from the embassy (which is supposedly faster).

Can't pick up the visa package directly from the embassy.    MOA is the fastest for receiving the visa package

5-10 (business) days is normal delivery for most all of the Philippines,  most likely she had it home delivered or picked up at a 2GO office other than MOA.
