For your Embassy I am not sure, but since you haven't got any feedback I will try and help you out :D

Try checking in the Philipines portal and look at all the recent approvals. See how long it took for others to receive their visas after approval. Good luck!

And Congratulations on your approval! :dance::dance::dance:
