Consulate Review: Manila, Philippines
Review Topic: General Review
Event Description
Review Date : January 25, 2019
Embassy Review : I got my k1 visa interview last September 25 , 2018 @ 6:40am. Flew to Manila after my shift from Cebu by air my flight was 5:40am arrive in Manila Airport 6:10am straight to the cab area and told the driver take me to US EMBASSY been telling to the driver that I have appointment by 6:40am and thank God I was been to the US EMBASSY around 6:25 it took me 15 mins from the airport to Embassy thanks to Kuya Driver.

During the Interview:

The lady console ask me the following questions:
- What is my name and my petitioner's name?
- How did we meet?
- When did we meet?
- How many times he visited Phil?
- Where does he leave in the US?
- What he does for a leaving?
- What is the name of his ex wives?
- What is the name of his son?
- Have you been to other country?
- Why he filed banckruptcy?
Over all it was a great experience I thought she will not going to approve my Visa as she kept checking all my documents(I meant my I-129F pocket) but she never ask anything from me even though I bought bounce of supporting documents!!! A few seconds later she handed me the 2 phamlet which has a version of English and Tagalog and she said it takes 2 weeks that my passport will arrive in CEBU as I choose to be picked up there in 2go AYALA Branch.
Overall smooth and easy! Thank God!
Just be honest guys and pray!!
Good luck everyone!!

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.

** Not all cases are transfered
