What we thought was going to be a stressful day turned out to be a Blessed one instead. Here’s our timeline:

Hotel: Red Planet Manila Bay (few minutes walk from the Embassy)

4am: woke up and ready by 4:30am
4:30-5:15am: reviewed and checked all documents
5:30am: arrived at US EMBASSY
5:45am: guard asked all the 6:40am people (Fiancé) to fall in line.
Guard asks to see the appointment letter and once you enters the gate, another guard hands out plastic bags to put your passport in (Bio page visible) and asks for DS-160, puts a sticker in it then to a room where you’ll have your body scanned and checked, wait again then you enter the main building where they do another body scan. Since he was first in line, he was able to proceed to the Fil Consul window right away.
Filipino Consul: DS-160, NBI, PSA BC, Cenomar, MRV Slip/receipt

My Fiancee went to the Embassy at 5am. She paid 30 pesos to sit on a chair outside to wait for the Embassy to open. Around 6am, they had everyone line up in a group, according to their appointment times. Then the guards let them in one group at a time. She got through security check, then a tagalog screening interview, then afterwards fingerprinting, and finally the final interview, which only took 10 minutes. She was interviewed by 2 consulates. She was then accepted. She was out of the embassy by 8AM. Thank you, Lord!

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Had my interview last Thursday (26/7/18) and to my surprise, my passport is ready for pickup next day (27/7/18). It took them just 5 hours from the interview to change the status in CEAC from “Ready” to “Application Received” to “Administrative processing” then “Issued”. This has been the fastest part of my entire k1 journey and I totally didn’t expect it.

The flow was just the same as other embassies. But here are some points I have observed based on my experience:

1. She was very particular with my i134. She looked into each page. I can’t confirm if she was trying to determine if it has a wet signature (my i134 did have the wet signature). Thankfully I brought the original itr and w2 to support it.
2. She requested for a proof of ongoing relationship from day 1.
