Unable to Schedule Interview

[mini_bini 1]

Hello,

 

I'm trying to schedule an interview in the APPLY for a US VISA in the Philippines portal, however I'm always getting There are currently no appointments available. 

 

I've been trying for more than a week now and it's still the same, may I know what I need to do or to reach out to? I already called the US Embassy hotline but there's no answer.

Can someone help me please. Thank you

If there are no appointments available, there are no appointments available.  Not sure what your question is?

 

You will just need to keep checking for open appointments.

Doesn’t sound like K visas have been resumed yet in Philippines?

Yup, still no routine K1 visa processing at USEM.  Only expedited cases being processed.

 

USEM update from Sep 15th -- https://ph.usembassy.gov/covid-19-information/

 

For Philippines-specific questions and info, please check out the sub-forum -- https://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/129-philippines/

If you see a grayed-out calendar that indicates that the embassy has no available appointments. Until USEM begins normal operating procedures the calendar will remain in that condition. You should follow the links given by others to your question, become a student of both USEM's website and be a part of the conversation in the sub-forum. Both of which links have been provided by other respondents.

 

Also, our resident guru Hank who hangs out in the thread can help with the knowledge that he has. Also, he has a website to help in navigating everything that must be done to secure a visa at USEM. https://www.visaconnection-philippines.com/us-embassy-usem.html 

 

Lastly, 

We need a little housekeeping on your end. 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. Our answers will sometimes be tailored to a specific Embassy hence the reason for you to complete your profile. 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 their Embassy. The country that should be used is the country where the interview will take place.
 
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.

Once you finish that then return and you will see a flag in your profile. Select it and see what wonderful information will open up for you.
 
Thanks
