Hi! I was just wondering how long the interview really takes in Manila - like from the moment I get there till I leave. My interview is at 6:15 AM, what time on average do you think I will be finished with everything at the embassy? Will I be out and done before lunch? smile.png Thanks you thank you!


Plus do I have to pay any fees that day? :)
