Hi! Please help! My parents have the same interview date in manila embassy but unfortunately my mom had to go through sputum which will delay her interview. We decided to have my father go to the original date for his interview at the embassy since he passed his medical. My question is, do i have to call the embassy and reschedule my mom's interview? or St. Lukes will be the one to reschedue it?

SLEC will tell you that they will be the ones to reschedule the interview once they have the results of your mom's sputum exam. But from what I have read here on VJ, you should call the embassy instead to cancel your mom's interview and tell them that you will reschedule it when you have the results of her sputum exam.

Thank you for your reply! I actually called the embassy hotline for appointments and the lady said I don't have to do anything but when my dad went to his interview today, he said they asked him why my mom couldn't make it. I am now confused... Is it going to jeopardize my mom's application that I didn't cancel her interview? I am now worried. On a positive note, my dad was approved! Just worried about my mom's.

Congratulations to your dad! You should probably call the embassy again though, to make sure everything is ok with your mom's case, and that you will just reschedule once the results of her sputum exam are released. I still plan on calling and rescheduling my husband's interview myself, instead of waiting for SLEC to do it...
