My interview was scheduled on July 9, 2012, at 7:30 AM. I arrived at the Embassy at 7 AM. There were three lines entering the gate and the immigrants and K visa line is shorter and moving fast. By 7:20 I already got a queuing number (#6134), and had already dropped my appointment schedule, DS156 and DS157 (2 copies) and 1 copy of the DS156K at Window 39. We were asked to be seated and wait for our number to appear on the queuing board.
But as luck would have it, I am never really fortunate at anything random. I never win at raffles and bingo games... my number just never seems to get drawn. Finally at 8:45, I saw '6134' on the board and almost jumped out of my seat... I went to Window 43 for fingerprint scanning. It was a bit cold and I can\'t seem to get fingerprinting right so I was asked to rub my hands together and press on the scanner. Lesson: Take breakfast. That will give the energy and strength to press hard enough with results. If you are the type who ... read complete review

OUR EXPERIENCE WITH CRBA AT MANILA EMBASSY
I noticed that there is no reviews of doing the CRBA here. At least none that I noticed. So here it goes.
Our appointment was actually for 9:30 but we got there at 5:45 because I thought that it was at 6:30. Just a heads up, they DO NOT CARE what appointment time you have for ACS. The guard would let us through the line until 6:30 when they opened the waiting area. The second floor where they do all of the ACS stuff doesn't open until 7:30, so there is no need to rush to the embassy. You will just have to wait for nothing basically. At 7:00 the opened the door for the 2nd floor and let us upstairs. All the CRBA people and a 2000 number. We were 2001. They didnt start calling numbers until 7:30 though, so we waited a little while. Then we got called up pretty much right away. There girl was a nice young Filipina, and asked for all of our documents. She examined everything and made sure all the forms were fil... read complete review

The day of our interview we all woke up at 4:00am for an appointment time of 6:30. We arrived at the embassy by about 5:15am and the line for the Fiance/Immigrant Visas was already pushed back quite a ways. We were let into the line a few minutes later by the gaurd. They started checking everyones appointment letters and putting a sticker on everyones passport then into a plastic bag, then formed a new line. We finally got to canopy where they were checking the appointment letters and was caught by a nice surprise when the man asked my wife if this was our baby and she said "yes" and they moved us to the very front of the new line! We had to bring our 1 month old with us, which turned out to be a blessing. By this point it was almost 6 or so and they called the first wave of people to go through the metal detectors and security, then we had to wait in line again to get our number which was 5000 (its really too bad they dont call those numbers in order lol). We were then let into the em... read complete review
