Thanks, once again you have been a big help

Chancy, I have another question, will our CR-1 (Conditional) visa category automatically change to an IR-1 visa since our 2-year anniversary will be in 4 days and our interview will be on March 8, 2023 or do I need to do something to change it.

👌👍ok thanks

I went to the link you provided ( https://ph.usembassy.gov/visa-update-consular-operations-visas-as-of-june-2022/) and it only talks about ir-1 visa immediate relatives not cr-1 visa. "Immigrant Visa (IV): The Embassy is processing immigrant visas across all categories. However, with significant backlogs in most categories, wait times for interviews are lengthy for all but immediate relatives (IR-1 through IR-5). It is not possible to provide precise wait times as staffing and local conditions affect capacity and scheduling. As of May 31, 2022, most IR visa cases being scheduled for interview were documentarily complete at the National Visa Center in March 2022. Most K visa cases being scheduled were documentarily complete in April 2022. Most current employment-based cases being scheduled were documentarily complete in March 2022. Most current family preference cases are approved expedite cases that were documentarily complete in January 2021." I will just have to be patient I guess.

Ok Chancy thank you very much, now I can relax a little for now. Hopefully will hear something soon.

Chancy, you said you received your interview letter 3 weeks after DQ? When was this? I ask because it has been 2 months since our DQ email

Ok thank you that remove a little bit of the stress, now to find out the rest

We received our email notice on November 10, 2022, NVC Notice regarding your Immigrant Visa Case becoming Documentarily Qualified. How long is the wait for an interview date to be set/granted for Manila Philippines? Both my wife and I are stressing out about this, we thought that she would be here in the U.S. already. We have been married almost 2 years now. If it goes beyond our 2-year mark, does it automatically switch to an IR-1 instead of the CR-1?
