  1. Hello! After his interview, how long did it take for his visa to arrive?

    My son's interview at the US Embassy Manila took place yesterday. His appointment time was 6;30AM. Here's his interview experience...

    He went to USEM at around 5AM (excited ata hehehe). Got in at 6;35 after the guard checked his appointment letter. When inside, a lady gave her a 2go form and a ziplock bag. Upon completion of the form, he was given a number while the woman placed his passport inside the ziplock bag.

    He went inside the building, frisked and body-checked making sure he did not have any electronic gadget in him. His number flashed on the screen after an hour and he had his biometrics / fingerprinting. After this, he sat and waited again. After almosy and hour and a half, his number flashed on the screen again this time for an interview with a Fiilipina consul whom he said was very strict or upfront. She asked him his name, dob, petitioner, co-sponsor name and his relation to him, my address, and how long i have been here in the US. She asked for a photo of him and me together. My son handed three and returned them to him afterwards. She didnt ask for any document. My son was told to sit again and wait.

    It took more than an hour again when he saw his number on the screen. An american lady consul was assigned to him. He was told to raise his right hand then a series of questions followed. This time though they were fewer than what the Pinoy consul asked. She just asked his name, dob, petitioners name, co-sponsor, my address, want he plans to do once hes in the US, and lots of YES or NO questions. My son said the american consul was very professional and nicer. She smiled at him and said congratulations. She even asked him how excited he is to see me (LOL).
    He was told to proceed to the 2go counter after.

    He was out of USEM at 12;30pm, hungry, sleepy, tired but very happy.

  2. I just received the approval notice for I-130 (IR-5), but it is not transferred to NVC. It states I have to file I-824, for my relative is living in the Philippines. On the I-130, number 22, I put N/A on the left box, but left the right box blank. Did I make a mistake? Can this still be corrected so I don't have to file I-824 and pay?

  3. Hehehe

    Sent my application Nov. 20. But guess what, I forgot to include the copy of marriage certificate. I received the receipt notice yesterday, and my status as conditional resident is extended for a year.

    You do NOT need to include that.....

    Our check was cashed yesterday so NOA should be arriving shortly (I hope), followed by biometrics...

    we have almost identical deadline... I am watching you closely just so you know:))) Our check was cashed on Tuesday too...

  4. My husband taught me too and same thing.... I was so upset when he raised his voice and treated me as one of his guys in military. But in the end, I thanked him because he was the best teacher....;) I was so nervous the first time I drove in interstate with my learner's permit because cars hit 80mph, but I get used to it. I got my DL last March.
