Your wait until they start scheduleing interviews. The June slots seemed to be assignined in the last 6 days.

Once you get interview assigned you do get a P4 interview letter. Than thats it.

Your casefile leaves NVC after interview is assigned usually within a few days after. You can always call NVC they will telll you when your case left.

So until your interview is assigned your case goes no where dear.

Come on over to the case complete thread and add yourself

The info from the other post is not country specific for the Philippines. Following is a copy and paste from Hank. Follow these instructions and disregard the other post (no dis-respect to the other poster).

After NOA2 AND YOU HAVE YOUR MNL #

(don't need to wait for the letter from the embassy )

Once you have your MNL # you can take your passport and required visa fee (in Php) to BPI and pay your visa fee. The embassy website states that within 4 hours of paying at BPI you can schedule your interview appointment but most times it seems to take about 24 hours.

http://ustraveldocs.com/ph/ph-niv-paymentinfo.asp

When scheduling online with the embassy you need to include the "XX" at the beginning of the passport number, your passport number IS your receipt number (normally).

Priorty Date; this is the date the NOA 1 was accepted.

Make sure to print two copies of the interview confirmation page as you will need one for St. Luke's and the other for the embassy.

LYRICALAN, how many days you receive your manila case # since approval?

Got mine on the 12th day. You have to call though everyday if you want to get going sooner in the process. I have not received confirmation in the mail yet, only got the case number by calling them.

ronzkie !!!!!

Nice to see you posting and asking questions again.

I remember - when you first started asking questions after I-130 approval - I mentioned to study LingChe in the wiki.

what's up ?

how willbe able to track our papers if it is forwarded in MNL /US CONSULATE-EMbassy in our country?

tracking isn't useful, you'll receive an appointment letter email from NVC, instead.

NVC Schedules for MNL throughout the month, so now you are in new queue, behind those casefiles that were completed prior to you. Soon, when your place in queue comes up, you'll be scheduled.

Might be next week, might be following week, might be first week of June.

Why would you post all this when you can clearly see they are a IR1/CR1. This is K1 dear. But thanks for trying to correct the situation.

OP the instructions I and Darnell are correct. for now there's no tracking your petition. You wait for interview. But please add your self to the case complete list its most helpful for those coming behind you.

[Darnell 8,478]

Now whats the best thing to do to keep track and be informed as to where my case leads?

IMO, the best thing?

Train your husband to use a telephone, to talk with NVC and DoS.

Train him about what questions to use.

Train him about timeticks and status.

Sometimes, is difficult to train a husband about these things. I pray for many blessings, your husband.

Thanks Darnell, I stand corrected and accept the giant crow that I am now eating. Apologies for the mis-information

[Jon and Gay 3]

Hi, we waited for the email of NVC stating the interview schedule. One friend of mine, whom I met here also, she was scheduled by embassy (they emailed her) since the american embassy in Manila had full schedule on the day NVC assigned her interview. Wait for their email. It is also helpful if your husband calls NVC, I helped us alot too... The reason our NVC stage finshed very fast. God bless.
