I'm just wondering. I have been watching YouTube and keeping my eyes on things here. I realize that the president just recently lifted the proclamation for travel bans. Should I call the US embassy in the philippines about my case or would that even help. I ask this because a lawyer who I sent an email to told me to email or call the embassy right away and start annoying them. However, from the many messages I have seen on YouTube and here, it seems like trying to get in touch with the embassy is a waste of time. And this lawyer mentioned to let him know if I didn't hear back. Honestly, it just sounds like the lawyer is trying to find a way to make money from me because he didn't guarantee anything. But I am wondering if emailing the embassy in Manila would be a good idea or a waste of time.

Is this attorney charging you a fee for that kind of advice?

So many things wrong. 

 

1)  Philippines was never subject to a travel ban

2) Annoying them won't make them reopen for routine processing any faster

3)  is your petition even showing "Ready "?

4)  applicant schedules there own interview online

YMMV

Hi @payxibka i agree. 

My fiancé called 10x yesterday and nobody answered, i emailed and same response auto reply. Our petition has been ready since June 2020 and until now or even petitions ready earlier than mine has no changes at all. 

 

It's weird.
