Just an update:
Arrived in the US: 02 May 2007
SS card received: 14 May 2007
Green card received: 24 May 2007
that is so fast Helen! Congratulations.
I wanna thank you for all ur advices...i hope id get my visa soon so ill be relieved...
Godbless.
-
What is the validity of the visa upon issuance? what i mean is should I need to go to the US within 3 months or 6 months upon issuance?
-
How can I track my visa delivery from Delbros? Can I get their website?
thanks.
Go to Delbros main page and input your MNL case number with '01' at the end. For example, if your case number is MNL20079999999 you would use MNL2007999999901. You can also call them directly or send an SMS message with your tracking number followed by the word 'status'. Good luck!
thank you...could you please give me the link to their main page?

Hi Jeng! I brought 2 photo albums with me when I went on my interview, the consul only looked at 1 album though. I was asked to open it on half then he pulled it out on his end and vice versa when he returned it to me. He looked into all the pictures in that album. I asked if he wants to see the other 1, I been told thats enough, lol
thanks gracy...did you sign already the DS 156K? It says there though that "do not write below this line"? lira's tip was to sign on the DS forms including the DS156K?
-
is it okay to bring a photo album for the pictures?

Goodluck Maria for our interview tomorrow and to all who will have their upcoming interviews! Godbless us all.

Hi guys, just stepped out from the car. Im happy to announce that Im approved :dance:Its been a long day for us left in A.C 3:00 AM, we got done 9:45, and its 5pm now. Both consuls that interviewed us were nice. And at the end I ask if Im approved, he said "yes" and I asked him if I can show him something he replied "yes" again, I showed him Byron's medical certificate that he have a laceration on his head and bruised rib cause of the allergic reaction he have to Neproxin and he fell on the floor his head hit something hard and that I wished to finalize my travel arrangements so we can be together specially this time when he really needs a companion and so on and forth. To make the story short I'll be picking our visa next week.
After the interview I sent an sms to Ate Cora PW so we can meet up but unfortunately she wasnt feeling well. I hope your feeling better now
Then I treated myself at Getaway spa<I figured I need a break with all my frustrations and finally the interview was done>, pythomer treatment, its really great lost an inch on both of my thighs, arms and waist, they will measure you before the treatment then after it. I'll definitely go back in there. P2000/session.
I would like to thank everybody here with all your help and for wishing me luck. The rest of may batch you can definitely do it guys, just pray hard have faith and knowing that you got all the paperwork needed you'll be fine. I was surprised I got done early some of the applicants like the ones that have 6:30 am appointment were still there waiting, cuz of paperwork problems, wrong input, no pics etc. Really a great advantage being a member on this site, were making friends and being updated the same time.
Ate Cora pls update me
Congrats! U deserve it!

Thanks thanks a lot Helen...you were a big help for me! together with the other guys here...btw, where does the interview actually takes place? is it in a small room? just you and the CO? or is it happens over the counter with mirror?
Both with the pre-interviewer and the CO-> it will be a counter with window. With the pre-interviewer, there's no seats, so you will be standing, but with the CO, there are 2 seats per counter so it is more or less relaxing... (maski mangatog tuhod, naka-upo naman)...
To add a little....the Consul window with seats is in a small room with a door opening to enter inside the room, but no door. You are separated from the Consul in the room by a wall with a window in it and a pass-through slot for handing over documents. If you wonder if its private....ummm....nope. The applicant that is next up after you will sit in the chairs outside the open doorway and can hear what is said inside. Not that we listened or anything.
Scott (and Mirasol)
Thanks for all the advices. I dont mind if the person next to me hears everything i said as long as i am approved when i turn my back to her...
Pls include us on your prayers...you are all great!
God is good.

Hi guys,
I finished my medical last may 10 & 11...hmm...i think i passed it..i got no additional procedures or check...xray film was given to me and had MMR & varicella vaccines...the releasing nurse just told me to take 2nd shot of varicella and bring the xray film to the US POE...m relieved, i passed, right?
a lot of thank yous to Helen and PW...your advices helped me a lot and gave me encouragement...
Helen, i think we had the same doctor, she was not thorough on me and asked questions so fast...
please continue praying for me for my interview on the 22nd...i still have lots of worries in my heart but i wanna be positive, i have my high faith in God...fyi, the last time my fiance and i saw each other was on oct 2, 2004 but we filed the applxn in nov 2006...will this be a big problem? i hope the consul will understand our reason..we have reasons of course...pls pls pray for us...
thanks again guys...
That's great news Jeng! Congrats! Good luck on your upcoming interview. About the long year gap (2004 to 2006), just answer them with confidence and justification and try to look them "eye to eye". They are mostly busy typing and looking at their computer (the CO), so when the CO looks at you, have an "eye to eye contact" and smile. You will do just great!

I'm just excited!!!
Thats great orion! Lira just landed in manila for tomorrow's interview! God Bless us all
Goodluck to Lira!
Godbless you both.

Thank you very very very much Helen! This is so encouraging and educational.
I hope the doctor wont be that thorough on his/her test. yes, i will get medical certificates and bring records. however, both you and PW mentioned that i must not offer them unless asked to. Thought there was a form that i had to fill-out to disclose the illnesses i had...if i dont disclose and they find out and i showed them the medical certificates and records, won't it be a problem? wont i be in trouble for misrepresentation? it is clear that if i brought med certificates and records, i am knowledgable of my illnesses which i should have disclosed in the form...
my interview will be on the 22nd of may and i scheduled my medical this 10th. do i have enough time? i really pray that they wont notice it so no further exam will be made.
again, ur advice is very much appreciated and thanked for.
Jeng, you may disclose about your Thyroid problem since you were treated and work-ups were done, and present the Medical Certificate from your private Doctor. About the cervical/peri-auricular lymph node, if they notice it, then deny it. Tell them you have not noticed and not feeling anything wrong with it. I don't think they will notice though. The panel phycisian on my case did not ask me to fill-out forms regarding my illnesses, she ask some diseases and I just said "NO"... (she wouldn't know anyway and I'm sure I don't have any communicable illness). If you can have your medical next week, it will be much better, so you have more time to relax before your interview and not think so much about your medical (just an advice).
Hi Ate Cora! Please update us We got our visa too Delivered by Delbros 05/04 in Bacolod City. I have to start packing now Thanks to all of you who have helped us through...the good advises and encouragement and prayers! See you all at the AOS forumCoco Puff

Thanks so much Helen and PW.
By the way, I had my annual med exam too last Saturday. I had my xray too. Is it possible that if the result is okay, ill tell the SLMEC that I recently had my xray and they wont do it again this thursday? will they rely on it or they will definitely have an independent xray?
Godbless you always!
Hi Jeng all i can say is good luck to you on your medical. Helen and Ate Cora had given u good advices on what u can do.
If u had an xray recently, inform them and bring your result with your negative. From that they would evaluate if u gonna have an xray or not. Anyways they ask if u have previous xrays and if so, they ask when was that and if u have the results with u so show it to them. Im sure u'll doing good in your med exams...hope to meet u at the USE on the 22nd, we have same sked .
Thank you Maria. When are you going to have your medical? Are you done with it already?
Anyways, let us try to meet on the 22nd. It will make a difference to have someone with you over there to get through that nerve-wracking experience of waiting...are you gonna be with your fiance?
see you and Godbless us.
Im done with my medical last apr 19 and 20 with some of Vjers. Im really hoping to meet u on our interview, i'll go alone, my fiance will not be with me coz of his hectic work skeds, he really wanted to come though but i understand his situation. How abt you? will he be with u?!
Here's what u need for your medical exam:
1) passport
2) 3 pcs colored (2x2) photos with white background.
3) $95 or its peso equivalent
4) black ballpen
5) appointment letter (original and photocopy)
NOTE: Memorize your case number, passport number, fiance's address and tel# coz always ask on the forms. I suggest to do it in the morning if u can
Nope, he wont be with me... :-(
Btw, are the doctors there already old or still young?

What should I bring to my medical on Thursday?
Do I already need to bring the DS 156, 157 and 156K forms?

Jeng, SLEC will do their own CXR exams even if you just had it recently. What they will do is they will ask for your previous CXR plates and do comparison, so it is better to bring the CXR results and plates with you during your medical exam. Good Luck, you'll be just fine!
Thank you so so much Helen.
Godbless you.

Thank you so much for that very well advice. My doctor actually mentioned the TB lymph node which can be a possibility but since no biopsy is done, nothing is confirmed. If ever, will it be a ground for denial? i hope not...well, good thing that i am kinda chubby so its not obvious, hehehe...however i have this one more concern, i had a throid problem history..i had slightly hyperthyroidism but it is normal now since it was detected earlier (2 yrs ago) and i took medicines..though i had cyst on my thyroid as well but it is benign...should i declare anything even if i am fine already, other than this mass on my left neck?
i am so paranoid with this medical but i believe that as long as nothing is communicable, ill be fine.
TB Lymphadenitis is not a ground for visa denial. Treatment is the same as having PTB. Biopsy will be needed to confirm the diagnosis and appropriate treatment can be started. If your Private Doctor had already suspected about it, then have a Medical Certificate from her and PW is right, don't offer the info unless they (Panel Physician) asked you. And about your Thyroid problem (hyperthyroidism and cyst), are you still on treatment? Again, get a Medical Certificate from your Doctor stating the diagnosis and treatments given to you and for how long you were treated, and laboratory exams done (TSH, FT3, FT4, thyroid scan, others). And again, don't offer this info unless asked by Panel Physician. Both of this diseases are not a reason for visa denial. But they may do further exams if they will find out. So, don't tell them unless they noticed it and asks more info from you.
You'll be lucky if the Panel Physician will not be thorough with their exam. As in my case, she (maybe because she was tired) only touched my anterior neck area (the wrong way to palpate for the thyroids), did not palpate for lymph nodes, did not do well with the rest of the PE, she did not even auscultate for my lungs. Then when she asked me at the end of her PE, and asked me what's my highest educational attainment, and I said; "Doctor po"... she have this surprised reaction and on her face and felt like she was ashamed or something with the way she treated me. She is professional but not that corteous towards patients/applicants. Well, I understand she/they are tired with so many applicants to see and check and because of this, they don't really follow the proper procedures for a PE.
Don't worry too much. You will pass the exam! Just relax and be confident when you enter their examining room. Panel Physicians cannot deny an applicant due to medical grounds, they can only make recommendations and remarks. It will still be up to to the CO (adjucator) during the interview. Have your medical done atleast 2 weeks prior to your Interview (a month if possible), so if they need to do more exams, you have the time before your interview.
Ingat and Good Luck.

Thank you very very very much Helen! This is so encouraging and educational.
I hope the doctor wont be that thorough on his/her test. yes, i will get medical certificates and bring records. however, both you and PW mentioned that i must not offer them unless asked to. Thought there was a form that i had to fill-out to disclose the illnesses i had...if i dont disclose and they find out and i showed them the medical certificates and records, won't it be a problem? wont i be in trouble for misrepresentation? it is clear that if i brought med certificates and records, i am knowledgable of my illnesses which i should have disclosed in the form...
my interview will be on the 22nd of may and i scheduled my medical this 10th. do i have enough time? i really pray that they wont notice it so no further exam will be made.
again, ur advice is very much appreciated and thanked for.
