I considered doing this, but I'm afraid it would cause a problem with my husband's case and make it more delayed. He's still DQ and hasn't gotten IL yet. When you filed a dispute in your bank, were you also just in DQ or were you/your spouse already interviewed?

I have read this post late and I have unfortunately, paid twice for my husband's petition - as was advised by NVC Inquiry twice. I have spoken to NVC inquiry and pay.gov multiple times and both entities keep on pushing the blame/responsibility to each other. Overall, I paid $890 in CEAC fees. I felt like scammed honestly, but no use in regretting now. I assume I won't be getting any refund anymore at this point since it has already been almost 2 months, but what I'm curious is can I possibly request expedite for IV interview due to NVC's error? Due to NVC asking me to repay fees, my DQ date was pushed back for 2 weeks and recently they did a mass expedite for all CR1/IR1 cases in my husband's country (Jan-May 25 DQ). My husband is unfortunately DQed May 26. Had they not asked me to pay twice, he could have been included in the mass expedite of Interviews. Your thoughts/opinions on our situation is highly appreciated. Thank you.

Just now someone from fb got auto expedited DQ mid may. and yes, I have checked and logged onto my husband's CEAC (I check every morning). I've actually been refreshing the page once in a while in hopes that I would get a new message too, but unfortunately, there's still none 🤧

So I also asked on FB chat and someone said they auto expedited back in Jan 10 and Jan 25. That gives us a little bit of hope at least that there might be another batch soon. I'm just extremely worried that after this batch's auto expedite, it would take months again to see some movement.

I reckon the same thing as well. The auto expedited ones I've been seeing have DQ date of Jan-March. and there's 1 for May. No one for June yet as far as I know. When they auto expedited back in January, does anybody know if they only sent out the messages on a single day? Or did they auto expedite on multiple days? I'm thinking that maybe they will send out messages by batches - maybe send out messages again later or tomorrow - but I also don't want to get my hopes up too high. 🤧

Congratulations to those who got the auto expedite msg today! My husband's DQ is May 26th but unfortunately, we haven't received the message. I was wondering, to those who got the auto expedite today, did you apply for expedite previously or no? I've been seeing quite a few of those in fb groups applied for expedite but got denied multiple times, and today they were auto expedite. There was 1 who didn't do anything at all. I wanted to see if applying for expedite previously would have a bearing in their selection of who to auto expedite or if it's totally random.

my husband just got DQed May 26th and I'm feeling a little hopeless with these updates. We're not getting any younger so we just want to start building our family while we still can, but LDR is causing us this misery. I would understand if they just "decreased" the ILs for CR/IR1. Like limiting it to a certain number but still surely give out some consistently. but completely stopping them since January with the exception of those expedited? absolutely insane. To think that CR/IR1 cases are always current and a priority, there shouldn't even be a need to have our cases expedited. and I also read somewhere that Consul General McGovern is on vacation so we can't even get any replies to emails. Clearly there's something wrong but ofc, the embassy in MNL won't admit that.

Thank you for the response! 1. Cos I saw a lot of people say on online forums that they didn't wait for the IL and actually booked an interview on their own so for what cases are those? 3. I saw a notice somwehere on NVC to bring original copies of required documents.

Hello folks, This has probably been asked a lot of times so if I am posting in a wrong place, please do let me know! My husband just got DQ'ed last May 26th and we are quite confused on a few things. I know IL will take some time especially since January DQs haven't even gotten theirs, but if someone can answer, that would be very appreciated! 1. For interview, I've seen people say embassy will provide the date, and some booked their own appointments. Which one is it? Also if it's the latter, how do you know if you are allowed to book one already? 2. To book the appointment, am I allowed to create an account on the US traveldocs even if my case is still at NVC (as per CEAC)? 3. Are tax return transcripts enough proof of requirements that my husband can bring to his interview? 4. Upon arriving in the US, will he automatically get SSN or do we have to apply for it? 5. does anybody know any Group chat we can possibly join to get updates for manila embassy interviews? Thank you so much! 🙏
