I’m a widow and with k2’s.And we are on k1 and k2.I had my interview last Dec. 12, 2011 @ USEM Manila. And after the interview I got a 221g and the CO asked for my CENOMAR reverification. The CO asked for it coz my CENOMAR stated that I was never been married but in fact I was married and my hubby died few years ago. After the CO checked my CENOMAR and I saw CO really looks confused reading the CENOMAR, he asked for my marriage certificate and the death certificate of my late husband and I gave the original NSO documents to the CO. He was very confused about my CENOMAR to the fact that I just got the latest copy of it. He asked me again if I was married and I said yes! He was convinced about the death and marriage certifcate that I handed to him because they were from NSO.After the interview I asked if we were approved..and he just said “NOT YET”…….and told me to wait for my number to be called…….And when my number was called to window 72, the lady gave me a white slip(... read complete review

It took a month and a half after my wife's interview to receive the approved visa. Quite annoying. I do not know if the delay was due to some problem with my wife's application of which we were unaware, or if there was a SNAFU at the embassy. No explanation was ever offered for the delay. Even with her November 8th interview it caused her to miss Christmas in America.

I think like any other government ran offices, waiting comes with the territory. the process at the US embassy reminds me of DMV or the social security office. Sit and wait for your number to be called, but the people were pleasant and the consulates were nice. I wish we didn't have to go through so many windows I think it was a total of 5 which included two interviews. I think overall the embassy was not that bad at all. I would have gave it a 5 but the uncertainty on when the visa will be available was up in the air and I wished someone contacted us about her NBI needing an AKA for miss spelled name on her birth certificate prior to reaching the consulate but I cant complain. That might be more of an NVC process. AS the embassy goes everyone is trying to get a visa and they get flooded with paper work and have determine a lot of factors which is not easy so overall I give the a four because the people that interviewed me and my wife were very friendly to us.
