Cool Ediie. Congratulations! I wish the best! Always pray and thank God for all the blessings you are receiving.

Eddie,

It's always been frustrating to be put under a situation wherein you dont have control of things and don't even have an idea of what's going on but to tell you, I have the worst case and look Im here in California after 8 long months from interview. Just pray and be patient. Your congressman might help you though speed up your case. They can follow up the status of your case. God bless

Eddie,

That's weird that they ask you for a hotel receipt. Anyways, aside from the receipt, what other requirements did they ask you to submit? Just relax and wait for the visa. You can check the case number also at delbros if your fiancee have paid the delbros. www.delbros.com

I guess we just have to pray and be patient.

1. July 28, 2006 - Interview (under AR) need to submit copy of previous I-485 (adjustment of status)

2. August 11 - 23, 2006 - Fiancee's visit

3. Sept 5, 2006 - Requested copy of I-485 fr National Record Center

4. September last week - Followed up: takes a year to receive it

5. October 2006 - Asked help from Congressman

6. November 17, 2006 - Received I-485 documents

7. November 20, 2006 - Submitted it to USE Manila

8. December 4, 2006 - Fiancee called USE Manila and they said that they are waiting for documents from Dept of Homeland Security. "Dont know what docs"

9. December 5, 2006 - I called 1-909-101-7878. They said, It is still under review. They cant see any other info but under review. Dang, from Aug to Dec: Still under review - no updates at all!

I suggest that Fiancee should just call the Lorraine instead us calling the 19091017878. It's damn expensive and irritating because they dont have good info!

Gosh, it's weird but more and more is being under AR. Im under AR for almost 5 months now. Getting crazy! It's so hard. Im praying that God will have mercy to all applicants who are under AR.

Thanks Mhel.

I submitted my docs last Nov 20. One week pa lang noong monday. My fiancee will call on Fri. Sana nga meron na before xmas. Ya ym mo lang ako. louchiw ang id ko.

God bless!

Wow, Mhel! Congratulations!

I hope to receive my visa soon because I have provided them the document that they required me to submit. Pls pray for me.

Hi Mhel,

Sorry, i was so sleepy when i posted my message. My interview was July 28 and I turned the docs in last Nov 20.

Hi Mhel,

Hi Mhel.

I am from Payatas. I am glad that the document that the consul needs during my interview arrived last Nov 18. I just turned it in last Nov 20. Hopefully, it will expidite my visa processing. How about you?

Hi Goodman. You are under AR if you receive a slip saying you have to submit additional document or consul says it's under review.

im so happy bec we just received the documents that we requested regarding my adjustment of status. my problem was consul wants to make sure if my previous petition is close already. it was a miracle! we received a letter from national record center that it will take prolly a year for us to receive the documents bec of the long lists that they have but fortunately, my prayers worked. just got it today.

thanks for your prayers

Our Almighty God, the Father, we glorify you and we praise you.

Thank you for the all blessings we received.

You are really our Great Provider, Healer and Comforter.

Provide us our needs, Father. Heal our broken hearts and Comfort us from all these diappointments.

Lord, today each one of us has an ultimate request.

Father, we ask for your mercy.

Touch each one of us, Lord.

We know that your Power is boundless.

We ask you to remove all these burdens that we are suffering right now.

We believe that you love us so much.

It is in your word that You plan to proper us and not to harm us. To give us hope and a future.

Lord God, we admit that right now, we are depressed.

We are hopeless already but You always strengthens us

"Dont be anxious about anything; but in everything, by prayer and petition,

with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God,

which trancends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Phil 4:6-7

Let Holy Spirit touch all those people-in-charge in

reviewing our papers to speed up the visa approval

You know oh Lord the desires of our hearts

But, Your will be done

Lord, You are our Saviour

Almighty Father, we ask for your guidance

We know that there's more than waiting for our visa

Bless us Jesus!

Give us the wisdom in all thy ways

Shed us your Holy Spirit

Make us righteous oh Lord

Help us to be humble and teach us to bring back all the Glory to you Lord

Make us stronger, more patience

Come closer to us God.

Give us joy and humble heart to worship you

It is in your word too that if we Seek your Kingdom First and your Righteous,

All these things shall be added unto us

Thank you for these promises, Lord

We now claim in the Mighty Name of Jesus that You have answered our prayers

Thank you very much Lord

Victory for us Oh God! Victory! Victory! Victory Father!

We bring back All the Glory, Honor and Praise to our Creator and Father, Lord God

AMEN

Note: Two or more prayer together is powerful because God is in the midst of everybody.

Hi Mhel.

I dont know how long before your visa will be issued but you know ive read a thread in http://www.theworldoffilipinas.com that there's this person who received her visa after 8 months. Disappointing but that can happen to us... i dont know but it's hard for each one of us.

God Bless You!

Hi Mhel.

No they didnt give me timeframe. Just like you "wait 'til you hear from us" im starting to lose hope. I've made numerous calls to their call center and they are telling me the same thing "still under review"...I dont know what to do next.

I am under AR for 3 months and 10 days now since my interview. They required me to submit a copy of my previous Adjustment of Status from previous K1 visa but unfortunately, the copy is being requested and the turn over time is forever so I sumitted a letter of explaination on Aug 28, 2006. I've made numerous call to US Embassy Manila but they said, it is still under review.

Can Anyone help me regarding my case?

Hi Sillygirl.

Im the applicant (waiting for visa). I got my packet 4 last July 24, 2006 when I had my medical. My case # is MNL2006572xxx. Still under review. Thanks

Hi Ms. Sillygirl

Can you add my timeline

NOA1 - Dec 2005

NOA2 - Feb 2006

Interview - Jul 28, 2006 under AR

Aug 28, 2006 - Submitted letter of explaination (can't provide copy of previous adjustment of status)

Nov 2, 2006 - Called US embassy call center 19091017878 - still under review.

Mhel

Yes. I am under AR too. Submitted letter of explaination last Aug 28, 2006. Paper still under review.

I've been married before (via K1 Visa) but got divorced when things didn't work out, so I wasn't able to process my Adjustment of Status (I-485), so I went back to the Philippines, After 2 years, I met my fiancee and he petitioned me (K1 also). During my interview on July 28, 2006, I was asked to submit a copy of my previous I-485 (Adjustment of Status) but I don't have a copy of it so I just submitted a letter of explaination last Aug 31, 2006. I just called the US Embassy Manila and they said "It is still under review. Just wait." Is this document required for approval? Cannot they look up that information in their system? I made a request to the National Records Center for a copy of my I-485 I submitted back in 2001 from my first marriage but the doc request list waiting time is so long (1yr). What should I do next?

Same with me Bro. I've been calling almost every week to follow up on my paper but like what you said, they say nothing but "its under review." I guess we just have to wait as noone can say when will the visa be released.

opps. sorry she got her visa 3rd week of sept and flew oct 7. exactly 6 weeks. visa approval depends on the consul working on it.

hi sixstringjunkie.

yes, she is a k1 visa also. she's not an AR case. she got approved after interview. she had her interview same as mine on july 28. she got her visa oct 7. unfortunately, i am on AR right now. i was asked to submit my previous adjustment of status but don't have a copy so i just submitted a letter of explaination. i don't even know if i will get a visa or not.

more patience...
