US Immigration from Philippines

Fianc had her visa interview about 3 weeks ago for a K1 visa in Manila and they told her that she was approved and collected her passport. We are still showing as "Ready" on the CEAC website. Before the interview, we did have to submit a different DS-160 due to a couple mistakes on the first one. We brought that to the interview and they accepted it, as they told us to do. We have still not received her passport back so I made an inquiry and received this response:

"

I was notified today that our case has been transferred from the NVC to the U.S. Embassy in Manila. I have completed the DS-160 and filled out most of the visa application on the U.S. Visa Scheduling website. However, I am encountering an issue on the final page, where it requests our NVC case number and payment option. When I attempt to submit the information, I receive the following error: "The Case Number entered is invalid. Please confirm your Case Number and re-enter it."

Currently, our CEAC status shows as "In Transit." Do I need to wait until it changes to "Ready" before I can pay the visa fee?

Hello VJ!

Does anyone know the current process to get an NBI clearance for travel to the US? Is this something that you're supposed to make a regular multi-purpose appointment for and then ask for verbally for travel to US purposes?

On the NBI website we don't see this an an option, no matter what we select the receipt says "multi-purpose." My wife's parents already have the multi-purpose one, so we're trying to get another more recent one with the correct verbiage/color or whatever is needed.

I keep finding conflicting information.

Thank you!

Aloha kakou,

After a minor RFE, we received our NOA2 dated 11/13. I am doing research about what to do/what happens next. I am seeing conflicting information. My friend John who is providing moral and logistical support says some things have changed since he went thru this. And I think my research is reflecting this.

Can some kind soul point Dina and I to a definitive resource as to what we should be doing now and what we should be preparing for?

Mahalo,

Bill and Dina

Hey VJ!

My wife's parents just got their interview dates in MNL mid Jan (just under two years waiting), and we're on the step of VAC registration for visa mailing address and fingerprints, however, upon reaching the NVC/KCC Case Number step, I'm getting:

I know the case number is correct and there's no typo, that I can confirm with 100% certainty. I found 3 Reddit's about this, but no one has come up with a solution after many months, so I wanted to reach out to be proactive.

Has anyone else experienced this? Who should we contact?

Note: Failure to schedule your VAC appointment before your Embassy appointment will result in the cancellation of your visa interview.

Thanks so much!
