Hello again VJers,

I and my fiance just received our case number via phone after 1 hour and 30 minutes of "on hold" music! Yaaay!

The lovely lady there said that ours was just recently logged into their system. I have tried to track it in CEAC but it returned no results? Is it normal? Should we wait for around 24-48 hours before we could track?

Any help is appreciated :)

I think this is normal - my CEAC status check only started to show results after my interview. Before that I always got the reply that my case number was invalid.

Why are you waiting. You are ready now to begin the process on your end. You can begin to collect your required documents, schedule your interview, medical and CFO without waiting for any movement on CEAC. Don't wait because your wasting valuable time.

You don't need to track anything. Now that you have your MNL case number, you need to pay the visa application fee, schedule the interview, and complete the medical.

Yes...wait a week or so to track it, but you don't need to wait for anything else, get started on paying the visa fee now and getting all the documents in order....
