My fiance just applied for his Philippines passport and he expidite it. They said the earliest for him to recieve the passport is OCTOBER 5, 2011 and that latest is OCTOBER 29, 2011. Would it be possible for the US EMBASSY/MANILA CONSULATE allow my fiance to turn in his PACKET 3 without his photocopy of his passport and also schedule his appointment later in October after he recieve his passport?.

NO. he needs his passport number before he can make an appointment at the embassy and also needs his passport for the medical exam so you must wait.

Thanks for the reply.... Gosh expedite still is long especially from DFA LUCENA.

Yeah i could relate on your frustrations my fiance just applied for his passport too in DFA lucena today and was advised that the passport will be deliverd to him by oct 3. Thank God i we dont need to rush off since we dont have the approval yet we just try to gather all the necessary documents before the NOA2 gods willing by 3rd week of october. he also applied for NBI but unbelievably was advised that he can get it by 3rd week of october. it was really frustrating if you are running on a timetable. goodluck and godbless on the rest of your journey.. keep the faith... you are getting there.

I'm so thankful for having my visa approve and my Case number available. I also got my vacation request for late October and my flight booked. I just pray that I get to bring home my FIANCE home with me :( .... I just wished that this passport will not stop us from continuing our visa or delay our visa process.
