yes its possible, but depends on how much time YOU have

she'll know during the interview if she gets the visa, but haveing it delivered is the time catch, we got our VISA in 4 days after interview, ive read here some waiting 14 to 20 days for it so if you are on a 21days visa yourself opps u see so make plans according...........:thumbs::whistle:

From what I have read and been told by people who have done this, you can choose "expedited" for a higher fee and the visa will sent by a delivery service (2go) still takes about 10 days. I have known some who wait in manila and pickup in person. Jim.

Our interview is Aug 16. I arrived Aug 14 to be with her. Scheduled to fly back Sep 2. The plan is to pick up the visa at the 2Go outlet at the Mall of Asia.

We've read on a couple of members here that designated visa pick up at MOA and they had visa in hand after 4-5 days. So, yes it is possible and it also

depends on how long will you be there. I do not know about picking up the visa directly from the embassy. I suppose it doesn't hurt if you ask. I do know

that I am taking a calculated risk with the time frame. I will update in the next week or so!
