Actually medyo iba yung situation namin. We didn't quite get a DM. I just checked our ECAS and it still says "in process" actually.

October 7, 2014 - Husband followed up via email to CEM saying that they had his passport since May and that he wasn't able to travel. CEM responded that they would return his passport for now which they did and nothing in it.

December 7, 2014 - Received a letter from CEM that visa was ready to be issued and to submit passport within 30 days and when submitted they could potentially hold it for 90 working days. This was a problem since we have our church wedding in Manila early Jan and our honeymoon to japan right after, which was already booked and paid for as well as our family trip to HK. We replied explaining the situation with all of our tickets and hotel receipts attached. We requested to either quicken the process or submit the passport after January 25.

December 12, 2014 - CEM replied saying to go to the Embassy on the 18th and they would provide same day service :)

So hubby went yesterday and now we have the visa!! We're very happy that the very long wait is over. Our process took total 14 months. They were either feeling very generous, or my other guess is - we would be out of the 15 month processing if we submitted the passport after January 25th so siguro pinagbigyan nalang kami :) Wishing you all the best! And Merry Christmas. Keep the faith and patience. You may not get it by Christmas but know they are working hard to bring your families together.

Has anyone forgot to send their imm5491e form(document checklist) with the application?

Will it be returned to me if it's not included?

We sent and have all of the requirements but forgot to in close the checklist?

Someone please help!

Check list is intended to make sure that you include all the forms required,
just reference for you that everything was included,
but it does not contain any specific information that is vital for your application,
I don't think that your application will be delayed or returned due to you missing the form,

But at this point what you can do is wait and see,

I am confident that your application will be OK without the checklist

Good luck
