The interview was smooth. Was just asked about when me and my fiance met, how we met, and how he decided to visit me in the Philippines. The last question I believed was the consul's counterchecking of the details and the veracity of the relationship. He announced at the end of the interview that my visa is approved.

03/12/09 First interview at 7AM US Embassy, will need to go back
03/30/09 Air21 telegram dated 03/24/09 Interview #2 appointment letter arrives
05/05/09 Second interview at 8AM US Embassy lasts until 3PM: visa DENIED
Anabelle was nervous, unable to eat lunch, in tears and left in a very negative emotional state. I'm assuming by comparing it with previous postings that this was in the FPU. I think her treatment was consistent with what others have experienced there. The consular officer recommended a course of action that could result in the issuance of a spousal visa in the future. It's very important that the beneficiary tell the truth, otherwise even that avenue would be closed. I hope that your wife will not have the unfortunate fate of having to undergo such a trial and interrogation.

First the good news, we are approved. This day holds other significance too as it was exactly a year ago (Feb 7th 2007) when I walked off the plane and into the arms of the women I met via a random yahoo event almost 4 years ago.
As the USC I will add a few comments to what others have said..
First, I would highly recommend that the USC go to this interview as its a unique experience that is something to be shared. Its far worse than your worst DVM experience and quite honestly if they tried to have Americans do this kind of thing there would be a serious mango-juice come tea party right outside the USEM in the harbor. Its not the process per say, though someone who has taken basic statistics can spot many ways to improve things. Its the complete lack of information and communications along the way which was mind-boggling
We arrived at 5am into a sea of people wondering around the embassy, there were the vendors outside selling ever... read complete review

All in all my wife said they were very nice to her even the pre-screener. The C.O. was kind and considerate to our case and the whole interview was over in like 5 minutes.

Our interview experience in Manila US Embassy went really well..
Our appointment is at 7a and arrived there approximately 5a. The first hour was mainly triple checking our documents and a whole lot of waiting game. At about 6:45a all applicant with 0700 hrs appointment were then allowed to go inside through security point. We sat for another 15 minutes before we were told to take our appointment letter, DS-157/156/156k out. We were told to make sure all fields were filled in before obtaining our ticket # which then were used through out the whole process. Approximately half an hour after, our number were called for biometrics (fingerprints) this took only about 10 minutes. Then again a whole lot of waiting game.....it was somewhere between 7:30-8:00a...and yes more waiting..hmmm..hmmm...Alas! our number were called for the second time for pre-screaning at 8:15a. The set up was pretty straight forward, a glass window between Filipina lady and my fiance and I. She was very pleasan... read complete review
