On the instructions from VisaConnection one area says we need 3 passport photos (2 for visa and 1 for medical) but the medical page say bring 4 to medical.  How many do we really need?

I would just bring 4 just in case. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

So a total of 7 just in case?  That works for me.  This is moving so fast now.  NVC received it and assigned the number today!

4 during medical, and 1 during interview. (I brought 2 during interview, but they only asked for 1). Total, just prepare 6

DISCLAIMER: I'm not working with USCIS/NVC and never work with them. All my comment based on my own experience and what I read.

I brought 8 all in all just to be safe. 

Good plan.  That is what we will do.  Better to have extras than to have one too few!

It states 4 on visaconnection-philippines.        http://www.visaconnection-philippines.com/medical---slec.html

 

The embassy instructions letter states to bring 3  ... but SLEC doesn't care.  ;)  

 

And yes still bring a couple to the interview   Embassy does ask for them

Thanks Hank. Just trying to get a handle on what is going on. It is moving so fast I need to take a breath and regroup a little. This is a little different than USCIS where we waited 275 days.

VisaConnection is amazing.  Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience.  It is absolutely invaluable.  Now I am checking it every day to make sure I am confident in what I am doing.  We found a bug in the visa payment receipt most likely due to Safari.  When I create the PDF to send to Rose Acrobat (or Safari) added a bunch of digits.  I was able to get around that by choosing "print" and then exporting as PDF.  It was weird and we didn't notice until Rose was at the bank just before it went offline.

It was an easy fix but annoying none the less.  I was trying to figure out what she was talking about because I only saw the 9 digit number.  What she got had 18 and it wasn't just the 9 repeated...
