Yes u will be informed of your medical and interview date from your packet the embassy sends ( usually about 6 weeks before interview date). u can also check the embassy website in manila, or u can call either the USA or manila embassy about the date , but they wont know until about 8 weeks before interview or about 4 months after Manila has recieved from NVC.

Every month or so this list is updated with new interviews. You can find your interview date by searching for your MNL case number. It will show up on the list a month or so before your interview.

The link is a good one to monitor. You can see how the K visas are being processed. It is my understanding that it is taking up to six months to get an interview date now. Good luck
