Is the timeline 2-4 weeks for passport and delivery issuance guaranteed? Or sometimes it takes more than that? Still waiting for the delivery of my kids passports from Feb 9 interview.

It is most likely a glitch in the system. About a year ago (maybe longer) CEAC started showing a refused status right before turning to issued. Nobody knows why but it has caused some anxiety. If you didn't get a 221(g) at the interview and they kept the passports everything should be OK.

I am very hopeful that that is the case. I am having an anxiety attack here. My kids are so excited when i arrived. Haven't seen each other in 5 years. Hopefully everything goes well.

Hello,

do any one here have a good number to call or email of the us embassy Manila? I have dialed the number bout a hundred times and whenever i get lucky to talk to someone, the line cuts off. 
my kids(IR2) had their interview last week and the Consul stated that he is recommending approval and to wait to 2-4 weeks for the passport delivery. I checked the case status yesterday and it was changed/ updated 2/17 from Ready to Refused. Please help. I just came here to pick up my kids and i feel bad to have their hearts broken since there is a chance that they will not go with me this time if this is the case.

You're welcome Here's a recent experience from another member, in the Philippines sub-forum. It may help put you more at ease:

 

 

Thank you for looking for this threads for me this is helpful. I appreciate it.

Thank you so much. We have waited for this moment for years. And we did not expect this update. Hopefully they will grant my children visas soon as i just went home to accompany them at the interview hoping to go back to us with them.

Please help and enlighten me. My kids appeared at the us embassy in Manila last February 9. The interview went well and the officer said he is recommending approval and to wait 2-4 weeks for the visa/ passport. Even after the interview, CEAC status did not change. It stayed as Ready Status. This afternoon the status changed to Refused. What should i do? Should i contact the embassy or wait for them to contact me? We did not receive any 221 G slip or any white slip. Please help. 

Hi how many days did it take when you received the visa?

My kids just had the interview and the consul stated that he is recommending approval. We did not receive 2 white papers as you said. What are those?

No.  I know my answer doesn't really make sense but still, "NO".  Just skip the asset section and there's very little difference in the forms anyway except the number of pages.

Alright i will just use the regular i-864. Should i list the other 2 kids on the dependent children.

Correct.  The form will get that right for you if you complete it correctly.  For each child, count one intending immigrant and two existing children.  If spouse is also immigrating count all three children on the spouse form and enter 0 for spouse on the same form to avoid counting twice and BECAUSE the spouse is already sponsored on that form/affidavit.

 

May I use I-864EZ given they each have separate petitions? Or I-864 is okay? I meet the income requirements.

Hi, i have filed 3 i-130 for my 3 stepkids. What will be our household size for each i-864? Is it 3 or 5 since it’s me, my husband and the 3 kids which are all being sponsored with separate petitions.
