Member Reviews:

Consulate Review: Manila, Philippines Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : July 3, 2008 Embassy Review : There was a typhoon Sunday in Manila the day before my interview and I was worried my interview would be cancelled since all the schools were closed on Monday. It was only raining when I arrived at the embassy and once I got past the pre-screening the interview itself only took a few minutes and my visa went out for delivery to Delbros the next day. The following Monday my visa was delivered to Mindanao. 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.

** Not all cases are transfered
