They asked for my Sealed yellow PACKET which i gave to them ... So after like 5 mins they gave me back a Yellow Envelope , called M-708 that has a printed name of Dep of Homeland Security..o my inlaws

Now i dont know whats this for or where i will use this ???

Then after like my 4 or 5 days here ... we got a package fr US Embassy .. But we will see that package on Fri when we get back to my inlaws house since thats still our address ...

I just want to know what are those paperworks and what will i do with them..'

Any help is appreciated .. thank u

1st of all I want say THANK YOU VJ FRIENDS for all the assistance and info that was given here.

About my interview…we stayed at BOULEVARD MANSION HOTEL and it was just a 3 minute walk going to the Embassy and the room was P1638 only.

So before my interview, my fiancé and I hung out in Mall of Asia until 11pm. So when we get back to the hotel I prepared everything. I went to bed around 12:30am and I woke up at 430am to prepare myself. At 5am we went to Shakey’s to eat breakfast. Then we went back to hotel at 6am to get our paperwork for interview.

At 615am we had arrived at the line. At 1st we fall in tourist visa applicants but thank god some people said we were in the wrong line. So we went to K1 line.

The security asked my DS forms (ds156k, ds157, ds156) 2 copies each, my 1st page of interview appointment letter, and my passport. She got all the DS forms and clipped them together with my appointment letter and she gave it back to me and told me to drop the packet to window 39 and just hold my passport. She gave me a plastic for my passport.

On our way to the entrance my fiancé had to go to the security line to deposit his cell phone. I kept walking so I wouldn’t lose my place in line. So my lucky number was 6099. I waited for my fiancé before we went to the windows where I needed to drop off my DS forms. After we dropped off my DS forms we sat at the waiting area. We waited for like 1 ½ hours for my number to flash. I think we sat around 730am then our number flashed around 845am. The 1st window was my pre-screener interviewer in window 41. He asked for my birth certificate, certificate of no marraige , NBI, and BPI receipt. He proceeded to asked me how we met, if I had traveled already and for how long. Then he asked my fiancé for the affidavit of support and 2011 tax return. He asked if it was the 1st visit for my fiancé here in Philippines and he said it’s his 3rd time. The Filipino pre screener said ok and to wait for your number to be called again. So we sat down and waited for 10mins and proceeded to the 2nd Window for fingerprints. After the fingerprints we sat back down again and we waited for another 30mins for the American Consul interviewer. Our number flashed and off to window 62. It was an American girl around 25-35 years old. She asked me how we met, if I had traveled and for how long. Then she asked my fiancé if he’s active duty Army and if we are the only people who will live in his house. And he said yes. Then she asked for pictures. I tried to insert the photo album in the window slot but she just said just turn the pages and I just turned like 3pages and she said ok everything looks great and to wait again for your number to be called. We already knew I was approved. And so we sat back again and waited for our number to flash. After 30mins had passed we went to the 2go window and the lady there congratulated me and said just wait for their text. At 1030am we walked outside the embassy laughing and we were so happy… laughing because I had like 3-4 reams of clear book for pictures and proof and the consul just looked at 5-10 pictures.. LOL

I just get a cenomar recently and i chose for US EMBASSY as a purpose

Hi abner when is her medical? Im going to have mine on 29 30 since 27 is holiday here and 28 im sure theres so many people ..I am going with my sister but they said im the only one allow inside..

Hi everyone...

Need advice..we receive our case # if im right Aug 16 through the phone only, (NOA2 is AUG )

When we 1st called that day (aug 16) the 1st operator who answered my fiance said it was already being mailed.

So he called for the 2nd time (same date) and asked the case # so i can have my med and interview here in PI and he got it.

One of my friend told me that we need to wait for the embassy instruction ? is that correct? So for now i can have my medical 1st on aug 28-29. Embassy Instruction means the mail ? or email? that i am going to get.. or my fiance in usa will get it.. ? Alot says i couldnt have my interview if that packet is not yet in the USEM...

I just wanna know whats the best thing to do to save time.. i can be patience if i need to wait for something before my interview..

Thank U vj friends..

God bless u all..

CONGRATSSSSSSSSSSSSSS YEY!

After a week of getting NOA2 (AUG 8,2012) .. My fiancee tried to call NVC today (Aug 16) but unfortunately the 1st agent who answered it said it was already mailed to him.. so that means we have one already but the agent didnt give it to him.. SO since i saw some people here advising to call many times i advise him to call again after like 5 mins.. and guess what after he talked to another agent .. He GOT the case number..... Yippeeeeeeeeeeeee ...

Thank You GOD
