We recieved traking # maybe 30 mins after interview, but I just recieved an email from "Manila IV Correspondence Unit" stating: "Due to certain issues which were unresolved during the visa interview, the applicant’s case was marked for further administrative processing in order to validate the essential facts.
Consular officers need to be reasonably satisfied that all identity and relationship issues have been addressed before a final determination is made regarding visa issuance."
not sure what this means, maybe document verifaction or maybe not satisfied with evidence we had for relationship. But I would think that if they were not satisfied with documents for relationship, that would have been checked on the MNL-IV-22 form, so i am thinking maybe just verifing documents........anybody with any thoughts please let us know



Hello,
ohhh..well,i have no idea with that and i cant share any!i just wish that they will be done soon!and we can be together with our fiance/fiancee!

hey everyone my husband told me that air21 text him a tracking number yesterday. i just called the embassy and said they did not issue the visa yet but our case is in the final review since air21 text my husband with a tracking number which means the embassy has already touched base with air21 that anytime soon they will be sending out the passport with the visa. i hope she meant what she said when she said within the next couple of days, that's a guarantee.



HI taj'
So when your husband before went to the embassy and hand over the air21 form they didnt give the tracking number right away?how many weeks did you wait until air21 txt your husband the tracking number?wow!hope he will have it soon!Goodluck taj's!
GOD BLESS!

MARK N RODA


after the interview, the consular just informed him that all our documents are complete but we are on review. he gave his address and contact details to air21 and was given the white slip. that was all...no tracking number or anything. our interview was last sept. 25 and on wednesday (philippines time) my husband received a text message from air21 with the tracking number...will call the embassy in manila again...and keeping our fingers crossed!



ohhh..at least air21 already text him..i still haven't mine..yes!i agree with you!!

I have read many post on here and others, and it seems to be a trend, that if they keep your passport the outcome seems to be good, so just keep hoping and calling, as soon as you hear something post it and I will do the same.......Yes TRIALS is what we also say

We are in the same situation, no explanation of why we are under review. I was also told to call back if we have not been contacted in 6 weeks. We did not pay air21 but the did text the tracking # and was told we could pay COD.



Hi joe_guillen,
well,lucky you!at least they give you tracking number..air21 didn't even text the tracking number so im clueless and i have no idea about it..all i know i told my about what happen to my interview..only medical result and immunization..that's the only lack but i turn to white slip..so when my fiance called the operator says could take about 6 weeks..and advice to call once a week..so were doing it the best as we can...we so much miss each other..but still there is word [b]"trials"[/b]so we still are hoping..that everything will be okay!but im so depressed.. crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif i do all have the documents needed..but..aww too sad.. crying.gif crying.gif

my husband was also surprised because they didnt ask for any more documents. he was also asking them to look at my tax returns, my paychecks from work and other documents that he brought but the consul said it was okay. they just looked at our pictures and our chat logs and phone logs. the consul asked alot of questions. the consul was pretty nice i guess...when he asked about my son's petition my husband said that we have already processed it and he said, then i guess i will see you again here for your son's interview. about my work he just asked if i work full time as a nurse...and if my husband ever worked in any country before.

ill keep calling every monday and friday though...



Hello,
ohh yeah same as mine didnt ask the other forms from my fiance..well for sure your in good shape..just need to wait for your son's interview..ohh everyday?hmmm wish my fiance do it everyday..hehehe..but he did once a week..hopefully their will be no problem w/ our documents..goodluck to you taj's..soon you will be together with your love ones..it takes time..

if he did not make it to the required income, the consul would have told you so. but since he didn't then you are okay in that area. usually they will tell you straightforward what you need to bring or need to do.



yes they didnt even bothered to tell me that..so i can show the documents that i have..ahhh i see now i understand,,thanx taj's..well,let just pray..hoping our case will be done soon and we will be together with our love ones,,...

Hi All!!!

I’ve wanted to post this but was kind of hesitant as I've read a lot of similar topics as this but here's my share of the Administrative Processing/Review Case.

I had my interview last May 22 and it went well... The Consul was very courteous and didn’t ask much. However, as we were ending the interview he asked me if I still have any business trips coming and all I could answer was that there’s none as my boss already knows about my personal plans. So he got a big stamp and marked my (still valid at that time) B1/B2 visa with “CANCELLED w/o PREJUDICE” then he pulled out a white slip and tick marked at the bottom box saying WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR FROM US. I asked him if there were any problems and he said there’s none and that I don’t have to worry about anything because I passed the interview. So I examined this white slip he gave and saw that there were no tick marks on the lacking documents part. So I asked him about the slip again and he said “just wait till you hear from us, your case is put under administrative processing and/or review.” He said my visa will be sent in a COD condition. So I left.

My question is what does it mean when a case is under administrative processing or review?... Is there a difference?...

I’ve read a lot of threads saying to wait because they usually process it after 6-8 weeks. Others would say call them every day or every other day or every week. We’ve already called once at the embassy call center and called Air 21. I’ve tried calling a number I saw on here that’s said to be a contact number at the embassy (Manila number) last July 3. It rang and an answering machine answered but when I dialed the local no one picked up. I tried to call the same number today but it seems like the line doesn’t exist anymore as I can hear a void tone.

Our case is already on the 7 week after interview date. Is there anything we can do to know our case status other than just wait?... Can anyone shed light on this matter? It will be most appreciated.

Sorry it’s too long a post… but hope you can share your inputs.



Hi Joyce/Jeremy!
I feel so sorry about your situation..as i've read your post here..i think i need to tell my interview experience w/c turn out to white slip and check here..wait until you hear from us..that my case requires further administrative processing/review.

Pre screener and CO was very nice and friendly..the pre screener ask affidavit of support,ITR (w/c i didnt give the co sponsor forms coz he didnt ask me)he ask my nbi clearance,cenomar,nso BIRTH certificate,baptismal..also along with the pictures,money remittances,cards..he ask me when we meet,if my fiance is divorced,how many kids in previous marriages,how many times we saw each other in person..and i know i did it well,so during my interview to CO he is very nice..he ask my name?how old i am..my petitioners name,when he start his job,..(w/c is i told him my fiance recent job)w.c is not written on his 129f form..coz 2008 he have 2 jobs..the one was written on his forms and the other one is not..first job he got it on october second on november..next he ask me if my fiance have previous cases w/c i said yes..and ask what it is..i said he have DUI's before..i know and im confident w/ my answers to both pre screener and CO..and at the end the CO told me that before they approved my visa need to wait my medical result from st.lukes.. i had my medical on 17th and 18th this month..and my interview is on 22nd..so give me white slip..im very sad that day..i dont even know what to do..when im out its like im walking in the air..like my mind is so blank..cant even think well..

So,when i go to window 37 he told me to wait my medical result w/c they expect that day..so he told me to go air21 to handover the forms..then went back to hotel..been crying a lot..im so worried..so on 25th my fiance called embassy and the operator says..our case is under review and it takes 6 weeks from sept.23...
I couldn't think why it takes too long..?until now im clueless whats gonna be happened..i miss my fiance too much..and he cant go here for now coz of work....so any vjr's here who got same situation as mine?im sleepless..been worried,i feel sad.. sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif

QUOTE (enjz @ Aug 5 2009, 04:47 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hello guys.... thanks to all of you! good.gif Got pink slip yesterday! kicking.gif

I will be sharing you my interview experience.......

My interview date was August 4, 2009 at 8:30am. A night before couldn't sleep.... so tense.... hehehehe.... but i kept telling myself why should I be tense since our marriage is bonafide (true / it isn't fixed or what - it is based on attraction and love...). But then, you can't help it.... imagining infront of the consul.... interrogated.... heheheheh just a normal reaction or feeling....

Anyway, the following morning, I said to myself, this is it.... I should go there.... hehehehehe.... at about 630 am forestrose texted me that she is already at the embassy while I am still at seven eleven heheheheh having coffee... I ate a bit since I was thinking that it would be a long day...

At about 7am, I was already at the US embassy. The guard checked my appointment letter and my ID. And then he told me to proceed to gate 2. Actually inside I don't know where to go, but I just followed the blue arrow indicating for IMMIGRANT VISA. (it's better to ahead of your sked so you will finish early)

Inside, there is a booth.... I showed again my appointment letter and then the girl handed me a no. and said to wait for my number to be called... that's the first step... I believe.... I waited in the waiting area.... and then someone called my name and told me to proceed to counter 16 for finger printing... while waiting for my turn... I saw forestrose ( I recognized her because we texted each other what we will be wearing hehehehehe).... at the finger printing....you have to state your name and your date of birth.... then the finger printing...... (there is someone who will be assisting you for that... so dont worry, just bring hanky incase your hands / fingers will be wet.... it cant be scanned..) After then, the one who assisted me told me to wait again for my no. to be called..... which will be the next step..... this step is the pre-screening step.... got 6045 no...., about 10 minutes my number flashed to window 25..... I felt nervous.... I said to myself, this is the beginning of the interview.... A Filipino lady screener.... she's quit strict..... she asked me few questions..... my name, date of birth, relation to my petitioner, where I met him, when did he come here, marriage date.... after which she told me if we have pictures together... so I handed her so many pics.... in a clearbook.... I pasted it hehehehehe. but then it is too many... she told me to just get it out of the clearbook.... so I gave it to her... after which she asked me if we have emails.... again,,, I had printed bulks of emails hahahhahahaha........ she told me to get it out from the clearbook because it can't pass through the window..... so I handed it to her....... (it seems she is so irritated hahahahha since it needs to be filed again).... hahahhahaha wacko.gif after receiving that emails she handed me the DS 230 (Biographic info that we have submitted and let me sign the portion that wasn't signed...) then she told me to wait for I will be called again....... After about 20 minutes of waiting my number flashed again at then I went inside the room..... and saw a handsome young American consul (he is handsome but my husband is more handsome than him.... hehehehehehe good.gif ) He greeted me "Magandang Umaga po" I also greeted back "Magandang Umaga po sir" I thought it would be all in English hahahahhaa..... I took a seat.... and he said to raise my right hand and asked me if I would promise to tell only the truth.... He asked me my name.... and then examined my papers..... and later asked. "Why didn't you marry at an early age? I told him... I haven't found the right man for me at that time until I found my hubby.... He just looked at me....maybe not satisfied with my answer..... He told me that I just wonder because many Filipinas would marry at an early age.... I answered again... that I haven't found the right guy for me at that time..... I wasn't thinking of age...... He again look at my papers and asked me .... Have you been out of the country and I said yes... I told him 3 countries and that I was there as a tourist..... He asked me again if I have a CEMAR.... and I said yes... I gave it to him... He examined it.... through that ultraviolet thing... heheheheh just like examining money if it is fake or not.... and after few minutes he stamped my papers... green stamped and told me.... YOUR VISA is approved"" And I said "Thank you, sir!" He told me to go to counter 37 and the girl gave me a pink slip... it states VISA FEE DELIVERY.... so I went and paid it at air21... which is at another booth....

I was so relieved! The first thing on my mind is to "Thank God!" And thank you all of YOU!!! kicking.gif

And to all who will be having their interviews.... GOODLUCK!!! And GOD BLess!!!

Could be bad timing as a terrorist immigrant was arrested in the US yesterday.
Please don't use capitals.
It's a GOOD sign they kept his passport. When my fiance was denied they took hers.
Did you get th reason?



hi,
Haole can i ask you?why is your fiancee got denied before?what's the reason?can u share it with me?coz im scared about mine..i dont have any troubles during the pre screener and CO interview they ask me few questions,but at the end CO said before they approved my visa he said needs to wait for my medical result and he give white sleep..he give me back the money remittances,cards,and pictures..and some other documents was ask by pre screener they keep it..also with my passport..im clueless!
