I am starting a new thread to track cases from NVC - embassy to GC.
The best news for RN in China, Phillippines and India has been great and informative thread, but I think it is more appropriate and convenient if we start a new thread.
Also with the rapid scheduling of interviews for most of us, I am looking beyond the CP and anticipating the GC!
The August interview schedules are out already in India, and recently in the Philippines and hopefully in China.
Here is my case details
Category : EX Schedule A
USCIS receipt : April 2004
Processing Center : Vermont
I-140 approved : October 2004
NVC case number : MNL2004813XXX

NVC case completed : May 16, 2005
Consular Interview : August 29, 2005
Visa received : ???

I hope you can also post here your details interview experience.
God bless!
Thanks suzanne4, I will call the embassy in Manila as soon as I get my interview schedule. I am just hoping we could have her passport already by that time so that all her docs will be complete at the time of the interview. As of today, I still have to follow-up her birth cert from the hospital because they said they will release it two weeks after her birth, then I have to go to the NSO to request an NSO certified birth cert which is needed to apply for a passport here in the Philippines. Obtaining an NSO birth cert alone would already take 1-2 months, then another 3 weeks for the passport. I just hope we get her passport in time for the interview.
Does not matter with the date of the interview, you still have six months from the time that they grant visas to travel. And they will save one for the baby.
It's great to know a lot of Philippine nurses are really excited at their progress and will surely get their visas for the USA.
There is still a limit as to the number of visas per year that are issued. The EB-3 category has a total of 10,000 or just under for those that were born in the Philippines. Adding in the fact that most have spouses and children, it leaves only less than 3,000 for the actual professionals that are being petitioned and this category is not just for nurses either.
There are many more that are waiting than there are visas for years to come.
