You must pay the K visa application fee before you can schedule your appointment.

The application fee for a K1 or K2 nonimmigrant visa is US $265, payable only in Philippine pesos at the prevailing exchange rate. There are three ways to pay the K visa application fee: cash payment at any Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI) branch; online payment provided by BPI to their clients; or online payment via Bancnet.

All K visa applicants must present a U.S. visa application deposit slip to pay the K visa fee. Print the applicable visa application deposit slip, downloadable from the online appointment website at http://ustraveldocs.com/ph/ph-nivpaymentinfo.asp, and take it to the bank to pay the fee.

For K1/K2 visa payment instructions, visit our website at http://manila.usembassy.gov/immigrant-visa.html. The visa fee is non-transferrable and is valid for one year. After paying your visa application fee, schedule your visa interview appointment by visiting the U.S. Embassy’s Visa Information and Appointment Service online at http://www.ustraveldocs.com/ph or calling (632) 976-8500, (632) 976- 8501 or (632) 976-8502.

This service is open Monday through Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., except on Philippine and U.S. holidays. Callers may speak with an English-, Tagalog-, Ilocano-, or Cebuano-speaking operator. Applicants, agents or petitioners calling from the United States may also use this service by calling (703) 520-2235.

K-1 visa is listed in the immigrant visa section. Did you pay your visa fee at BPI?

What's the lead time for an interview appointment when you call the Embassy in Manila for an interview? 30 days? less? more?

What visa are you chasing. Please finish your profile and timeline so we know how to answer your questions. If your chasing a K1 appoints are in May. I don't have access to the calender but if you start a new topic and not highjack this one you may have a better chance to get your question answered. On the main Philippines forum screen in the upper right hand corner you can start a new topic. Hope this helps you better understand how you'll get better quality answers to your questions.
