I did all of that too except write another letter.....I wrote a letter when I first sent in alllll of the information. This time, I sent plane ticket copies, immigration stamps with passport copy, 65 pix of where they were taken and when on each photo, gmail printscreens, myspace's, ******** with comments......I think that we gave them more than enough!! What else do they need........a DVD??? Unbelievable.....this is crazy.......I've still heard NOTHING

wow...that's a lot of evidence...i think that's more than enough to prove your case. better call the USCIS to be sure it's in progress.

UPDATE:
yesterday, august 25, 2009, i had my medical check-up at St. luke's clinic in manila, philippines. i arrived there around 5:30am and wow i'm 73rd on the line...really most applicants go there so early...
anyway, here's what happened.
before 6am the security guard gave us a number and forms for the check-up. he let us go inside the building and fill-up the forms there. BTW, they look for 4pcs visa pics, photo copy of the notice from the embassy and the appointment letter for the interview.
7am they started to call by numbers, first for picture and finger printing. then next is for the data encoding, all in the first floor of the building.
next is payment at the 5th floor. then x-ray at 3rd floor. then laboratory in 4th floor where they will take blood sample. they didn't took my urine sample since its for preg test only but i noticed some guys also gave urine sample. after that is the physical examination at the 5th floor where they will check the eyes, height and weight and the vital signs. then a doctor will call you in a cubicle for further check and will let you disrobe...
next is to proceed at the check out counter in the 2nd floor where i left all the forms. they gave me the receipt and claim stub and my passport and told me to come back the following day for they result and further instructions.
that's what happened the first day, i finished around 12:30noon time, i started 73rd on the line.
next day, august 26, 2009.
i arrived 9am at the clinic and gave my receipt and passport at the guard in the lobby ground floor. he checked my files and told me i passed the exam, i'm now good to go for immunization. he then marked my receipt "for immunization" at the 2nd floor. i waited for about 15mins before my turn. they gave me 2 shots. after that, they sent me at the ground floor and wait for my name to be called, around 15mins, i was called again, let me sign 3 forms and asked me to wait again. 20mins after, i was called back and gave me the cd and immunization record. i left my medical result and passport at the clinic, they'll be the one to forward it in the embassy for my interview.
now i will prepare for my interview on sept. 15, 2009. wish me good luck folks...cheers everyone!

welcome. wow...same interview date with me? what time is his appointment? mine is 7am, we might meet there ...anyway, tell your fiance that in the medical, if they send him to a certain process, always look for the front desk attendants on that room/floor and immediately submit his papers to them, if not then he'll be waiting for nothing. good luck!

[francksgirl]

If everything goes well... ( already bought his ticket... )

Btw, We were able to choose what date to go for the interview and his medical exam is walk-in basis first come first serve. We didn't have to wait for him to receive the notice because the call center operator said that it's just a notice via mail that they received the packet and he is eligible to set an appointment for interview and that packet 4 is printed online.. He just needed to show the confirmation email stating the interview date that he printed out for his medical exam instead of the notice.

regarding the notice from the embassy, yes that is also what the operator told me when i call them, that it's ok to go for medical without the notice from the embassy and just show the email from them...BUT...BUT...BUT...when i arrived at st. luke's, the security guard asked for the notice from the embassy, good thing i brought with me (notice arrived at home a day before i left for manila) the notice. i showed him first the email but he told me that's only the interview appointment. it's ok i also have the notice anyway...just to make sure, bring the notice from the embassy, maybe the security guards are not familiar with the process that's why they thought the email is not valid...but it's logical, you can't have an interview appointment if your case is not eligible...
BTW, so you have a ticket already? do you mine telling me what website you bought it pls? im trying to search mine also. TIA...
maybe we could meet with your fiance during the interview since we have the same date and time...

[francis197902]

current status: waiting for my interview date sept. 15, 2009...

preparing for the documents needed for my interview, getting more excited...

to everyone, any idea how an interview is done? i'll be having mine in manila US embassy and it's a K1 visa...tia

[francis197902]

just for the update...

yesterday, sept. 2, 2009 i payed my visa at the bank and they gave me a validated DS-157 form. in the website, it says i need to submit 2 copies of the DS-157 so most probably the other form is not validated by the bank, would that still be ok? anyone got idea on this matter?
i'm still on the process of gathering other documents for my interview, soon everything will be ready. good luck to everybody...
