Hi, my fiancee is scheduled for the biometric screening tomorrow.
Is it required to bring the I-129f form with her to the appointment?

Final interview Manila Philippines May 27 2025 6:30AM
I left the hotel at 5:20 am. The embassy was a few minutes walk. I sat outside about 30 minutes then they opened the door at 6am. I went inside. I prepared the DS 160 with my passport. Passport was stamped. Once inside we were security screened. I then sat and organized documents. Passport, DS 160 PSA, cenomer, 2x2 passport pictures, Payment receipt, appointment letter, medical envelope. Police clearance from OFW and Philippines police clearance. We waited 5 minutes then lined up at window 61 for pre screening. It was a Filipino. He had me give the documents I already prepared.
He asked my name.
My Fiancé’s name
Was he married : Yes
Show me the divorce decree. He looked it over many many times and questioned if it was original. He kept asking then took it inside. It was like they were looking at a fake dollar.

Took just over 2 hours. Pre-interview Filipino clerk didn't like that the approved packet has photocopies of divorce decree instead of "dry seal" (this misname for embossed seal) certified copies. Interview with American officer was very short and pleasant.
End result was that we were approved but would not be processed until we sent the consulate an LBC with her passport, a form and the certified decree copy. It cost 140 to get an international FedEx send them 480 peso for the LBC. Annoying but it's done, just a little over a week delay to our plans. Good thing we left a 3 week buffer from the interview date when booking travel.

Pre screening was the worst part. My Fiance did not have her orignal birth certificate so we had to rush back to the hotel to get it. The pre screen agent gave her 30 minutes or he would give her a 221g. My fiance and I returned back to the hotel and back again to the Embassy in 15 minutes.
The interview took about 10 minutes, very conversational. The Consular made it seem like 2 friends chatting. It was window 64, a middle aged American Woman.
