If I can ask what phone number you called to get a human at the embassy?

The numbers I have just goes to a menu tree with no way to talk to anyone.

 

Thanks.

I used this number, (+632 7928999 or +632 5488223. This is like a call center, i think there is no chance to talk straight to a person at the embassy.

mine was Oct 18 and Oct 24..i also called the embassy and they said just to wait for text from 2go..we have the same pick up address  in 2go MOA branch

yep also in MOA. but i know someone here in VJ issued date oct 18, and she already picked up her passport in moa yesterday. Does it say in your ceac status it will take 7-10 working days to get the passport upon issuing date?

Hi, 

 

i think it's normal. We're both on the same boat. Mine updated Oct 18 and today as well. It still shows Issued but invalid when tracked in 2Go website. We'll just have to wait I guess. I registered first as home delivery but changed it to pick up at MoA before my interview last Oct 16. 

 

Hopefullu we get something tomorrow since it showed last update as Oct 22,2018. 😊

Hoping we''ll get our passport this week, let me know if you receive an email or text, i have a feeling we're on the same batch for delivery of passport. 

Hi guys, i want to know the normal processing time for visa issued to delivery by 2go. Issued date was Oct 16, and it's updating everyday. Until today Oct 22, the case updated too. 

I checked also ustraveldocs, and 2go website both are still invalid.

My pick up point is in MOA, so i assume this will make it faster, but its been one week now my issue date but till now no passport yet

anyone can enlighten me, what's going on? thanks so much

I'm not sure if it will let you until after the interview, but if it does you should upload now to CEAC in the other documents section.

 

I came with my wife and stayed with her during the Filipino pre-screening and fingerprints. Then I went with to the American interview but he asked me to be seated. My wife says he asked things like what do we have in common, what we do together, if she's met my family and how often I visit. It was a short interview, only like 5 minutes or so. He never asked to see photos or any of our evidence. He did not congratulate her or anything, just gave the form 221g and domestic abuse pamphlets.

 

Good luck on your interview!

Thank you so much for your suggestion, visa approved. My lawyer uploaded ahead my cemar before the interview, and the consul was impressed and actually happy to see my cemar is already  in their system. This is really a big help and plus points for me. did you receive already your passport? what's your visa status right now? today is my third day after approval and my ceac status is still "ready".

Last update for any Googlers out there:

 

We brought the CEMAR to the interview. They took it, but after approval, they gave form 221g requesting that we scan and send in the original CENOMAR. There were many, many people with the same problem. We asked the woman to keep our original (we had already scanned, but not uploaded) and immediately uploaded to CEAC after the interview. The next morning our case changed from AP to Issued.

 

Basically I would recommend uploading the CEMAR if you have it to avoid AP, but it's not a huge deal if you don't. If you do not have CEMAR ready, submitting without and getting CC is probably more important. Then you bring the CEMAR to the interview it will only delay your visa a few days.

I have my interview this coming tuesday October 9. My lawyer did not upload the CEMAR in ceac since its not part of the requirements during nvc stage, so are you saying i should let my lawyer upload it now before my interview, to avoid any delay? or i will just wait for the consular decision. May i know what are the questions you had on your interview. and btw Congrats!!!

I finally have my interview date!! October 9.2018 Manila Philippines. CC- 8/30/18 ..

I only have 3 weeks to prepare for medical and documents. getting nervous and excited!

Anyone here from Philippines waiting for an interview date?  How long does Us embassy in manila to set an interview date.. CC 8/30/18

Thanks!

Hi guys! My cc was 8/30, any idea how long does US embassy in Manila to set an interview date? Goodluck to everyone who's waiting for CC and interview date.

Has anyone here who worked in Dubai for 1 year or longer and recently went thru the interview in Manila been asked for UAE police clearance or did they let you go without it? Do they really waived it? Really worried about this, as i look up here some were given 221g letter due to lack of this document.
