  1. You timing is about right if you do not run into any significant issues or get processed two quickly.

    You/she can already get everything that you will need for the embassy interview via the internet at http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwh3238.html

    There is no duration that she needs to be in the country but she will need to take medical exam at St. Lukes with at least a 2 week gap between the exam and the interview.

  2. For the appoint at St. Lukes. It is done on a first come first serve basis.

    DS-157 you bring 2 to interivew but it needs to be validated that you have paid the visa fee.

    When you schedule the interview she will get a letter. Otherwise everything can be obtained via the internet at the embassy web site

    Since your a K1:

    http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwh3238.html

    The page reference above will include the validation info for the DS-157

  3. You can bring in up to an equiv of $10,000 US but if you do read the fine print on the customs forms you will also find that there is a limit of 10,000 pesos if the currency is pesos.

    When I travel there I bring about $200 and covert it. Then as I need more I just use and ATM machine. It is safer than having all the cash.

  4. Until you get married your only option is the K1 which is for Fiances, When you get married you have 2 options, the K3 or the IR/CR1. If you check out the guides the differences are discussed although in most cases the IR/CR1 is just slightly longer to get than the K3 but the IR/CR1 is cheaper to get and the spouse is able to work as soon as they get the US which has certain advantages.

    best of luck

  5. I have done this many tiimes, >25.

    When she leaves the plane she needs to take all her personal belongings and carry-on bags. Yes even if the next flight is the same number

    Then follow the signs to international connecting flights.

    She will go back through security. They will want to see her passport and a boarding pass or ticket to the next international flight. In her case this is boarding pass showing her flight to the POE in the US.

    After security she will then need to look on the flight information board for her next flight # to see the gate and the departure time.

    She needs to be at the gate 1 hour prior
