BPI Payment

[Aphro01 0]

Hi. I have already paid for my k1 visa interview yesterday (Friday,3:53pm), and now trying to schedule an interview (Saturday,4:18pm). I get an error saying no valid record can be found for the entered receipt number. I have read that I should be able to pay a day after my receipt purchase date. This is making me anxious because I don't want the money we paid to go to waste. Should I calm down and just wait? Thanks!

It is usually within 24 hours.  Be patient

Usually take 12-24 hrs after paying the visa fee at BPI before it is recorded and you can schedule your interview.   Weekends and holidays don't count.

 

Now that you are at the visa applicant phase in Manila you would do better to pop over to the Philippines forum for better answers.

To clarify, I paid Friday, does that mean I can't schedule it until Monday? Thanks!

Most likely.     Did you pay in the morning or afternoon?

😭😭😭 I kept trying and they have frozen my account for suspicious activity and I will not be able to access it for up to 72 hours. Gosh. We're trying to book the soonest available date. 😭

Once (one time) you try and the receipt isn't valid, try another day ... banging on the acct multiple times isn't the way.
