US Immigration from Philippines

Good Day to everyone, I received my acceptance notice last March 14,2020 (Chicago Area) for N400 US citizenship application. However, I have not received any updates for my Biometric schedule, It has been 10 months. I know that they have delays but how long do we usually wait nowadays for a biometric appointment. If anyone can share their experience and updates, I would appreciate it. Thank you in advance.

New thread

In another thread I had mentioned that we had our passport stolen on a bus after the K1 interview. Our original plan was to go to the US on January 15th but because of this situation this has been delayed. I have extended my stay in Manila until Feb 19th to help facilitate getting this new visa/passport/CFO certificate asap. The visa expire date is February 22nd so there is not much time. I wrote to USEM last week with a summary of our situation, an expected timeline etc and surprisingly they responded within 12 hours and told me that they will need the new passport. However they did not answer my questions in the email.

We are currently having the new passport sent via Victoryliner from Tuguegarao as its the fastest way to get it to Manila (VL does not take passports but we have made it look like documents) as we need this passport overnight.

I have two questions if someone with previous experience can help answer:

1) I asked the Embassy about a new DS-160 for the new passport number, details etc. From research, it appears I cannot update this and that the Embassy would have to update this in their system. Is this correct? When I go to our DS-160 its impossible for me to edit it now as its already been submitted a long time ago.

2) For those that have done the CFO during the pandemic, how long did it take to receive the certificate from the date you sent the documents to them. We have already done the CFO by phone, sent all the documents via email, but will have to send a copy of the new passport and visa to them. From the point on sending, how many days did it take to receive the documents you needed?

Thank you.

Hello all, What is required for an IR1/ IR2 Interview, copies of your Income Tax Returns, or an actual Tax Transcript from the IRS. The NVC website says Tax Return Copies OR IRS Transcript. Hoping to clarify. Thank you so much.

Hello, My wife and daughter have their IR2 interviews on Jan 21. My daughter was born out of wedlock, w/ me listed as the Father on BC. My wife and I married 4 months later, and we had the Child's birth legitimated through the city registrars office, and have proper documentation of such. My question is...wITH the i-130 and ds 260, etc approved, and NVC stating the child is documentarily qualified, are we good to go in terms of Parental Relationship, or could they still require DNA ? Thank you so much
