    That's not true. In the Philippines you can do everything up to the interview at which time the case needs to be set to a "ready" condition. So if you have your case number and then when you go to schedule your appointment, select a date that is 4-5 weeks out which gives the Embassy plenty of time to receive your case from NVC. Prior to your interview date check CEAC to insure it is set to ready. If it is then attend the interview if it isn't then cancel the interview appointment and reschedule a week to weeks out OR cancel and do nothing till the case status is set to "ready".

     

    Here are the steps for the PI

     

    1st) - pay the visa fee, this can be done as soon as you get your MNL #. 2nd)  With the CEAC status page showing the MNL# , you could potentially complete the medical before scheduling the interview ( Still >> SLEC does have the Interview Confirmation page on their list), if you want to push things & this would be a good time to get CFO out of the way.  3rd)  Schedule the interview, print out copies of the confirmation page - 1 copy for the embassy and I think SLEC wants 2 copies.  4th)  Attend the interview.

     

    Your mileage may vary.

    Ok thanks @Greenbaum i understand now.😊

    Hi guys i badly needed your help our NOAH2 was approved 9/19/2018, My petitioner is living now with me, so his brother the one who always check his P. O Boc unfortunately they just saw the letter yesterday, and now i said to my fiancé that to call him the NVC to ask about our case number. But he doesn't want to do it. 

    So i guess i will just do it without his permission. Do u know any applications that i can call NVC for free. I'm from Philippines anyway. TIA 😊

    Use hangout for free call all you need is data in your phone  or send inquiry in nvc via email

    Yay! I received an email from NVC that my petition is  in transit going to manila US embassy last October 30, but since it’s souls day here in Philippines and it’s an important tradition to visit our passed love ones in the grave, and it’s holiday, hopefully on Monday I can start setting my appointments hehhehe😁

    Once you receive your case number and your case has been set to READY at CEAC it's time to be in charge of what time you choose when things get done. To smooth that trail for you I have a few things that will help you process your visa there in the Philippines.

     

    You'll need your Eligibility Letter, which is emailed from USEM. Here is an example of what it looks like http://www.visaconnection-philippines.com/embassy-letter.html

     

    Start by visiting Hanks site where he has taken the time and research, and of course, it helps if you spent 8 plus years helping folks in the Philippines sub-forum get their visas, where he has listed each step. With those steps, he includes the what, when and why to complete the item. Many have used the website and have had little or NO problems securing a visa from USEM.

     

    http://www.visaconnection-philippines.com/k-1-visa-application.html

     

    Next, you'll want to connect with those who are processing through the Philippines in the VJ Philippines sub-forum that way you will be with like-minded ppl who are sharing their experiences and also asking and answering questions. Since most in this thread is processing through another country they would be hard-pressed to explain what is needed for the Philippines.

     

    http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/129-philippines/

     

    You'll find this on Hank's website but I will give it to you early and that is the Packet 3 Letter for USEM. It's found here:

    https://ph.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/fiancee-visa/the-interview/

     

    Here is the Packet 3 letter.

    There you have it. Everything you need to get your visa. Good luck and smooth sail

    Thank you so much sir

    Oh wow that's really fast. Happy for you! What time you called them today? 😀

    I didnt call them but in first page of this post i follow @Greenbauminstruction 

    I created this thread for those who are waiting for their NOA2 K-1 and the case assignment from NVC.

     

    These are items that everyone ask for so I thought I just post them here for you to refer to when it's necessary.

     

    1. How do I update my email address with NVC Once you receive your NOA2 approval then contact NVC viahttps://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/ask-nvc.html to update your email address as well as your beneficiary's email address. This will give you an email alert when your file arrives at NVC, your case is assigned and when the file leaves for your Embassy.

     

    2. Checking on your embassy case number from NVC:

    It will take 7 - 10 business days for NVC to receive your file from USCIS after you receive the NOA2, then another 2 - 5 business days for NVCto get your file in there system and produce your case number.  Call 7:00 am eastern time for shorter wait times.

     

    1-603-334-0700 or 603-334-0888. Operator assistance is available Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 12:00 AM (Eastern Time)

     

    1 for English, then 7 (or 5, but I would go 7 as they would tell you if you should call 5 instead after they receive your case.)

     

    Best time to call:

    Right after they open which is around 7:00am US Eastern Time, Mon-Fri. Most have had luck getting the phone answered after the first ring if they called right at 7am.

     

    3. How long to assign a Case # from NOA2

     

    Currently it's been taking about 2 weeks for USCIS to send the file to NVC. Then it's been taking about 2-3 weeks for NVC to assign the case number. Then it's taking another 2-3 week depending on the Embassy to receive your case. Your mileage may vary!

     

    4. Follow Similar VJ members timelines.  Use the tools here in VJ to answer "when I am going to get etc. etc." question. Near your picture there is a link for your timeline. Select it and once you're on the next page near your picture  you will see "follow similar timelines" and it will populate 12 other couples who are near your dates. Scroll down and you will see a "spreadsheet" style page showing all the variables for measurement for when others from your Embassy are getting the same notice of approval or action.  Try it. It really works!

     

    5. Follow similar VJ members timelines from other countries. And if you want to follow those from other countries that have similar timelines as yours there are several tools available to you. Go up to Immigration Timelines on the blue ribbon above and select it. Once you are on the next page looked to your left and you will see a box that states, "find similar timelines" and select it. A list will populate with those who are processing close to your timeline. When they start to change you will soon be behind them.

     

    I followed those that were in my group to give me an idea where they were in processing so I could judge if I was ahead or behind.  It's pretty accurate, maybe within a day or so.

     

    If you choose to follow those twelve members then you will get an email every time their status updates.

     

    I hope these tips help you along your Journey. So lets share our experiences, our tips and ask questions.
