Hello, We filed on Dec 9 for permanent residence for my wife through Manila. It has been a long frustrating process to get to this point but now looks like things finally on the right track. Sponsorship completed Feb 8. Received in Manila Feb 21. Request for passport, NSO advisory on marriage, and Appendix A on Feb 24. That surprised us to get this right away :D. Medical was done back in November. I am surprised, looking at previous months, many are getting their visas shortly after. Comparing to the expected 9 months on the manila embassy website, I am very optimistic about this now. :D

Good luck to all

I am surprised nobody is mentioning having to go to an interview. I wonder what the actual percent of people required for interview is. Hoping wife will not have to go for one. ::)

Hi IRENZ :)

21 days from the date of application transfer to VO, to VISA issue, that's spectacular! Record time! Congratulations!!!
I've been following your progress on your profile... I am also applying in Sydney. I was wondering what date your passport was requested. Did you receive the request by mail or email?

I hope to be celebrating along with you soon. :) :) :)
