I don't know if i post here or in the NVC forum.  but I filed for my two step children 16 and 9  to come to the US from the PH.  got approved for the I-130 and it went to NVC.  got the case numbers for both and paid the fees and did the D-260 paperwork and AOS paperwork last week.  so i'm just waiting again. 

 

my questions are :

how long is the general wait time for the paperwork approval and the time for the interview? 

how long after the interview before we get the visas to come to the USA?  

how much is the medical exam?  

is there a way i can get the NVC to schedule both interviews at the same time?

*****Moved to the Philippines regional forum for the experts to see the PI specific questions***

You need to contact NVC asap and ask them to schedule both cases together.

After and interview and no 221g, it could take a week or less for the visa to come.
