We just received our NOA2 (-:

From what I understand both the physical and interview for the Philippines are conducted in Manila. Marisa lives in Cebu and I will be traveling there at the end of the week. Is there any reason we could not travel to Manila to take care of the physical before the NVC receives the documents. Otherwise do you set up the physical earlier in the week of the interview to avoid island hopping twice.

Advice and direction are appreciated.

Quick Question, anyone know why Armenia is listed as the Embassy on my timeline when obviously my fiance is from the Philippines?

Thank you all for you responses, they are very helpful. Yes I did submit I-129F and Have received our first notice of action. Since out timeline indicates: Based on timeline data, your I129f may be adjudicated between November 17, 2016 and November 21, 2016* and I travel on the 25th I plan on taking the package with me as that way Marisa will have the majority of what is needed.

Based on this adjudication date what timeline should we expect for the next step weather we are ask to provide more information or our 2nd NOA is approved?

To answer Ben and Zain, yes swimming with whale sharks was exciting. Our picture was taken not far from there where we went canyoneering at Kawasan Falls, That was awesome!

Thanks again

Hello, What a great forum. Being a non techy I was unaware You could get on this site before you received you first NOA. I plan to travel back to Cebu Philippines at the end of the month. If I have not received my second NOA by then should/can I take a copy of the I-129 with me? I am concerned about the mail getting through because letters have not arrived already.
