Our 3 year old daughter's I-600 form was approved last August 2006. Her interview with the presence of my wife's sister and brother in law was successfully completed in the US Embassy in Manila April 2007. Since the embassy took her passport we assume that the visa has been approved, and it's only a matter of processing. The National Visa Center told me that all matters for that case with them are now complete, and that there would be "further processing" in the US Embassy in Manila. Here it is, one month plus after the interview and we are still waiting for her Visa to be delivered to her. She lives with my wife's sister in Zamboanga del Norte, about 300 miles south of Manila. Is this normal procedure? How much longer do we have to wait for her to get the Visa? It now appears that we will have to reschedule all our flights because of this delay. Would appreciate any input or advice. I posted this in the Consulate forum but received no replies, so I thought this forum would be more appropriate. Thanks!

The only thing you can do is call and call and call the Embassy and ask about your case. good.gif

I would, but the problem is that, last time I tried, I couldn't figure out how to get through to them by phone. None of the numbers on their website worked for me at all. I've also read that the more you bug them, the slower they get. Thanks for the advice though.
