We are quickly approaching 60 days since the interview and 90 days since paying doc verification. According to Grace, the next batch of verified docs are due in March 28th.

Sorry for it's taking so long... I know it sucks but you have no choice but to wait and call for updates since you can't beat the system. Good luck to you and to you too, edp333!

Did you pay the DOC VERIFICATION a month before your interview or did you pay it after the interview? If you paid the verification after the interview, I hear that embassy will hold your visa until doc ver is cleared.

Count me in..
Its been a 7 weeks since Delbros submitted the request and until now no word from the USEM about my wife's visa..
Its been so hard for me.. I can't leave my family... Its nonesense coming back to the US without them, I have a 2yrs old daughter..
Just found out that I lost my job..
This is so much painful than I imagine...
I hope I get some news this week.. I will be going to the USEM tomorrow.. Its cheaper for me to go there rather than call them and live with the rates of 55 pesos per min..
Good Luck to all.. Please Pray for us..

I wonder if our case number, documents, passport are missing in the embassy or delbros. I called the USEM and Delbros did you know what they said: Pinag-papasahan-pasahan lang ako. Where is my documents! I paid the USEM for $18 just to talk with them and they said that my documents are still on Verification, so I called delbros to verify where is my documents do you know what they say its still on the USEM! WOW!

Nahihilo ako sa kanila! nasan na ba talaga ung documents ko! I'm going to call now my ATTY... I can't take this anymore. the process are slow! You know what I'm going to volunteer my self! I will go to NSO and get my wife and children document verified! Its will only take me 4 hours or 1 days to Verify their documents!

I think that their employees are not doing the job! how come our visa is not yet in process? and the others take only 1 week to deliver the visa. I don't know how they process the visa but I think that the way they do it is not right!

I'm going to call NVC to complain this issue.

xps, edp333, Roserick and to all others who have been waiting for their visa for several weeks already, my heart goes out to all of you.
This has been a very frustrating journey you all have been made to endure more than others and I hope the agony will end for all of you soon. I hope and pray that you will get that visa and be able to start a more promising life with your SO the soonest.
Stay strong and continue having faith for it will come in God's perfectly appointed time. Though it may be hard to understand God's plans, His time is never late nor too early, it is always perfect.
I will keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers.

“Never let go of hope. One day you will see that it all has finally come together. What you have always wished for has finally come to be. You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself... 'How did I get through all of that?”

Going on 30 days for us as well, Interview was on 13 March and still no visa. The thing that ticks me off Is that I called Friday and they say they got a new NBI even though she just had just go a new one because we got the first one 6 months prior. And they say it was updated in the system on the 31st but can take anouther 6 weeks to process WTH. That makes it 2 plus months to wait on a visa.

We got the visa last 2 weeks ago but the embassy left a big scar in my memories. I don't know if I'm happy or mad or sad. I would say that the people who works on the embassy specially the Filipino/Pinay have no heart or no feelings. You are asking a question but their the one who is mataray.
