November NOA2 approvals for USEM interviewers

[Abby-Ron 8]

Listen to this nice piece of noose I got from doing my weekley call to the USE.. They now need a P 650 fee paid at the metro bank ASAP After paing that fee they need me to send a text to Delbro International showing I made the deposit.

this is the info she gave me:

go to any metro bank and deposit php 650

Account # 7-151-51420-7

Account name : Delbros International Logistics INC

Get two deposit slipps one for the bank and one to keep

after that is done you will need to send a text ,message in all capital letters to:

TN # 0917-5555-313

USE-MNL case number - first, last, middle name-(branch name)-(dat of deposit)-(time of deposit)-php650

Example of date 7 dec 07 day month year

She said people that already have interview dates don't need to do this

You happen to know what the extra fee is for?

Thanks to Cadman76 for pointing this out to me, its not an extra fee but a required process which Delbros does, they verify that your beneficiary in the Philippines has a valid birth certificate and is sent to NSO for verification. Its actually stated on the USEM website () the 6th bullet from the bottom of the page and has a link to http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwfdelb.pdf describing what Tim posted.

You can pay the fee as soon as you have an NVC case # and the USEN is doing interviews almost every week day now

they also told me the sooner it is paid the better

My fiance has children who we are processing to bring with her as K2 derivatives. Does anyone know if the 650 php fee has to be paid for fiance and EACH child?

Please don't just quote me from the referenced page. I read it and it says "The cost of the document verification is P650 per applicant.". It just seems strange to me that they would want "document verification" for derivative (children) applications. I'm hoping someone who's been through this will reply with their experience. Thanks.

we just got our approval on dec 7th. are interviews scheduled upon arrival of hardcopy or electronic? im wondering if we will make the latest cut

Congrats to you!! To answer your question, no, interviews are scheduled regardless if you get the hard copy of the notice from NVC. Snail mail is the hard proof that in fact the case is moving on. Since you have a case number, you can call the Embassy in Manila to see when they receive the packet and ask for interview dates if they have already scheduled them. I believe the US Embassy in Manila schedules the interviews and relays this info to NVC and Department of State. Now, Ive been tracking the schedules online at the USE Manila website, and currently Ive only gotten 2 interview schedules for MNL2007819XXX, which the interview date at the Embassy is Jan 9, 2008. They haven't scheduled anyone after that or at least not updated the website for inquiring for the past 3 weeks.

What phone number are you using to call the embassy in Manila? All I can find on the website is the call center number, which I tried ($18.00 cost) and they aren't very helpful. I think they are using a Philippine call center, which would be both appropriate and ironic. I'd prefer to just call overseas if I could and talk with a live person in the Embassy.

The only other numbers I've got are for NVC and the DoS here in Washington, DC. They only seem to have the information about when the package was sent and can't even confirm that it was received.

Im using +63 (2) 301-2000 ext 5184, the Department of State and NVC should know the interview date as well once Manila Embassy schedules them.
