Consulate Review: Manila, Philippines Review Topic: General Review Event Description Review Date : May 5, 2024 Embassy Review : I arrived at the US Embassy an hour before my interview date. I was asked to go to a certain area to check my DS-260 and Passport. Went inside for the security to check my stuff. Then after the security check I went outside and was guided to go inside the Embassy. Then they asked what type of Visa you are applying for. Then they guided me on where to wait for my initial document screening. The process was fast. The Consul's questions for me were pretty simple like: Where am I going to live, the Petitioner's name, Petitioner's address, Petitioner's number and When we got married. I was asked to go to the Biometrics area and gave my DS-260. This is were the long wait happened. I was called after the wait. They returned all my documents from the document screening area. Then the Consul continued to ask more questions like: Who's your Petitioner, What's your relationship with the Petitioner, When did you meet, When did you start the relationship and asked for my CENOMAR and spouse's AOM. Which I don't have that time. The Consul gave me a pamphlet about Information on Legal Rights Available to Immigrant Victims of Domestic Violence in the United States and Facts About Immigrating on a Marriage-Based Visa and 221G to submit my CENOMAR and AOM online and via LBC with my Passport. It was a good experience. Staff were very helpful. The Consul was very nice and approachable. Rating : Very Good

*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.
