Rose picked up the visas today. 2GO still has no record of them!  We are VOH!  No Manila envelope. The visa says “IV Docs on CCD”. It was a long strange trip but I would like to thank everyone here who listened to me complain and always helped me keep my eye on the goal. I am sincerely humbled and indebted to you all. 

Congrats John & Rose!!!  :dance:  

 

Got the new e-visas!  Cool!    I expect soon those will be the norm, no more DO NOT OPEN envelopes.

 

Now off to CFO for the stickers.

All signed up for CFO.  Now my problem is the immigrant fee.  We were handed a sheet with the visa but it was a standard sheet that told me where to log in.  When I did it says the page is archived and no longer in use.  I tracked down a place to pay but it says I need the form handed to us from the CO.  He didn't give us anything.  I need the DOS case number and the Alien numbers and I have no way of figuring out where to find them for the kids.  I have Rose's A number from her K-1 NOA2.  It isn't on any other form.  I doubt if I'm the first to face this.  Any thoughts?

PHILIPPINES ONLY!!!  CFO (Commission on Filipinos Overseas) INFO - Can't leave home without it!

 

PDOS (Pre-Departure Registration and Orientation Seminar) is for ages 20-59.  Peer Counseling is for 13-19 years of age.

It is required to have the visa in their passport for PDOS and Peer Counseling.

 

GCP (Guidance and Counseling Program) is for K-1 Fiancee and IR/CR-1 spouse ONLY.

DOS case number is the MNL# if I am not mistaken ( instructions state to contact the embassy if this information as not on the sheet they handed out at the interview)

Did you look at the NOA2?  The A number should be listed 

YMMV

On Mary's visa the A number was listed under registration number.  If it is 8 digits add a 0 to the front.

 

For the case number we had to add 01 to the end.  So Like MNL2019DDDxxxx01
