Expediate Request to NVC (U.S. Embassy in Manila)

[Hawaii1 25]

I submitted an Expediate Request to NVC on 08/17/20 (my wife is DQ from NVC..just waiting for an interview date)....received an acknowledgement e-mail from NVC indicating they would send my request to the U.S. Embassy in Manila for approval/disapproval on 08/21/20.  Does anybody know how long the approval process for the U.S. Embassy in Manila?

@Hawaii1 I got mine after 2weeks stating that the us embassy  accepted the expedited request. Then after 3 business days another email stating the us embassy approved the request. Now I'm trying to get an appointment. My daughter's medical is scheduled on September 10. I hope I get an interview appointment soon after that.

Wow!  Many thanks!!  What was the rationale for your Expediate Request?

@Hawaii1 NVC responded in about 7 days after submission. Then about 3 days later MNL embassy approved us. You will need to complete your medical at SLEC before you can schedule your appointment. You can schedule your medical online in advance, but they also take walk ins for expedited. Depending where you are located, traveling to Manila is probably the most difficult part, if you are not on Luzon or in NCR.🙂

All embassies should be like the Manilla one- Just a " I miss my spouse I can't live without him/her" is good enough to get an approved expedite
