once u recieved a text like this:

Delbros Delivers!Pls be informed that we are now

preparing for dispatch the visa for MNLXXXXXXXXXXXX

To track the visa,u may log on to

www.delbros.com

then they will inform u again:

Delbros Delivery!Delivery for MNLXXXXXXXXXXX

starts today!You must leave a valid ID and signed authorization

letter or delay of one week will ensue.thank u

if u pass the interview u will just pay visa delivery amounting 250 pesos

then they will get info from u and ur cellfone number aswell to inform u..

then if u already recieved it,they will text u again that

u already got it because of the paper u signed....

they also track it....

just track ur visa and packet4 included,then after 1 or 2 days it's already infront of ur door....

look at my visa time line...

anyway its up to u if u pick it up or not,its just a waste of time and money.and i know u're still from pampanga if i am not mistaken.

good luck

No they did not as she still needs the Marriage Index and when she takes that to the embassy they will tell her when she can pick it up. She is only two short bus rides and one jeepney from the embassy so it is fairly close to her.

We picked up our visas from the USEM as we requested. If you are going to attend the seminar at PRISM or want to get your sticker from CFO already and leave for the US soon, it really is better to just pick the visa up. That's what we did.

what is the Marriage Index? and does it really need by CR1/IR1 filers?
