Calling the USEM?

[AFweatherguy 0]

So I tried to call the Embassy last night to get my Fiancee's K-1 Visa appointment. I called the 1-888 number and the automated call menu came up. The options were to press one for Filipino, two for ACS, and 3 to continue in English. I pressed 3 and received a message in filipino. I think it was asking me to the pin number you are suppose to get, but I don't know how you get the pin number.

I know from the USEM website to get a pin for $18 and to have my fiancee's case number.

So, my question is. How do you get the pin and reach sombody to set the appointment date?

Try again. I had the same experience my first few times, then around 8:30 it went through fine. In fact, last night I could not get through the direct line either.

When I was scheduling our interview, one of the options on the phone menu was to purchase a PIN number. Not sure which one it was any more...
