Hi Maricel. Good evening. Sorry to hear about what happened. Always remember that there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Keep on praying . God bless ..
Hello Bella! I hope you are having a great day so far. I’ve seen your comments and I apologize if I wasn’t very responsive for the last few weeks. Thank you so much for understanding and for the encouragement ✨
Godbless you too🙏🏼
Praying that everything will be fine the soonest for you and your dad.
Thank you so so much 🙏🏼 grabi na yung stress na nararamdam ko everytime I count how many months na ang tinagal ng process na to 😞
@@MaricelSuniegaI feel you, but keep pressing on. Stay positive. Things will get better soon. 😊
hi maricel i watched the part 1 and this part of ur vids. sorry to hear about ur dads experience, hope he can make it up til the end of ur petition for him. just update us what's up.
Hello! Just a quick update☺️ My dad has made it here in the US na po.
Thank you for turning the music off. Was just gonna exit out. Best wishes for him in the future.
Thank you so much for watching through. I apologize and I’ll take my music options in consideration for my future videos.
I appreciate your feedback . ✨
Hi ,its my frst time to ur channel, ive been looking for videos about this, my parents were documnetarilly qualified last may 2021.
Yung normal process kase is we wait for USEM to give us itnterview schedule diba? But now they gave us the option to schedule our own visa intrvw appointment online or over the phone with USEM pero unreliable pla sila. Your videos abt this is very helpful ,salamat and aantayin ko yung next update mo after ma kuha na ang cultured sputum result.sna by that time nsa USEM na yung dcoments nyo, i know how frustrating it is. I hope for the best for your dad's petition 🙏
Hello 👋! Thank you so much for commenting 😃. Yes, I was told by one of the customer agent ng USEM na Pwede akong mag schedule ng visa interview if May available slot. She even mentioned that I can do it myself online. One thing she didn’t mention was to make sure na yung case namin should be at USEM before getting a visa interview schedule. We have been waiting for almost 6 months na. 🥺 how about you guys?
Best of luck to you and your family too🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hello dear, so I followed your tips on how to schedule and I was able to schedule a slot. But then I found this new video of yours. If I am understanding it correctly, the slot I got is invalid? We got documentary qualified last March. Thank you!
Hello Ram! That’s good that you’re able to get a slot 🙏🏼! Per my experience, my appointment letter/confirmation was honored by St. Luke’s. Now when I called to reschedule my dad’s visa appointment, I was told that out case is still at NVC. So USEM won’t be able to reschedule my appointment unless they receive my case. I suggest you contact the USEM to verify. By the way, has the applicant completed the medical examination?
Hi Maricel, I just want to clarify something
If for sputum automatic ba cancel na agad yung Visa interview?
If cancelled na, do I have to pay for another visa fee to get an appointment?
Hope you will see this comment. Thank you.
Hello, do u have an update if the status in CEAC has been changed? -In transit - Ready.
Medical exam is valid for only 6 month, count day 1 from your father's 1st day of medical up to 6th month.
Once your CEAC status (at NVC) hasn't been changed for 6 months the medical will expire and you have to pay and do the medical Again. Since he was under Sputum test, there's a chance that he might be under sputum test the second time of medical(no matter if the result test negative for TB).
Idunno if case is Ok now so kindly disregard 😅
Praying for a positive results!
Hello Jude! Thank you so much for sharing this info here in the thread. As of now, my father’s case is still at NVC and we are still waiting for his sputum test results and expecting it around end of July. This journey has been very long and challenging. Thank you for your prayers 🙏🏼
Stay safe and Godbless 🙌🏼
Hello..question lng regarding validity of medical..yung 6 months validity is for US , tamanpo ba? is it the same with Canada validity ?
Hi MS i have questions my dad have sputum test and his interview is cancelled my father case is our country us embassy,can you tell me please how can i make reschedule for father they say that it's need to come to results 60 days after result back how can i make reschedule for him please give me suggestions
As i have understand if I'm right about the content of the email from NVC, they have to wait for the Embassy assigned for paper which is US Embassy Manila to send them available date of interview..for them to send it to US Embassy Manila..I'm also waiting mine is April 2021 docs approved..God Bless..
Hello Ditas! Yes that’s correct. The NVC will forward our application once our chosen Embassy will have open dates for interview.
I hope we can get slots for our applicants soon 🙏🏼 Godbless
Same goes to I-140 filing. Unless you CEAC status is READY and is already at US Embassy Manila, then you are eligible to schedule an appointment at the CGI website. This CGI thing is actually a new process, everyone was hesitant to book at first. But after several attempts of calling and verification, yes. CGI appointments can be initiated only when the docs have been submitted at USEM.
I hope your father will be cleared soon 🙏 And when he is already after 2 months, I also hope your father's paper will finally be at US Embassy Manila.
Hello Jennalyn. Thank you for sharing this info here in the thread. For sure other viewers will find it very very helpful. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I’m new to the process and I’m figuring things out as I go with some research.
I’ve been checking my father’s case everyday and it’s still at NVC. I’m really hoping and rooting that it will make it to US Embassy, Manila soon. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you so much 😊
hello i just want to ask how long did you got an interview schedule at CGI ?
Hi Maricel! You mentioned that you had 1 friend who got the culture sputum result in 6 weeks... May I ask if it was a positive or negative? I'm super anxious because SLEC sent me an email that my results are available (only 5 weeks and 3 days from day 3 of sputum collection)
Hello Lia. Yes I know someone that got their results back after 6 weeks and it came out negative for tuberculosis. With our case though, we didn’t received an email form SLEC that our results are ready. My friend that got 6 weeks waiting time was also in different category that’s ours. Theirs was an employment visa. I don’t know if that makes a difference. But I wish you luck and hope everything is well.
Godbless🙏🏼
@@MaricelSuniega Hi Maricel! Thanks for answering and giving me hope. I rescheduled to get mine earlier since in the email, it reads that I can reschedule if I'm not free on Sept 1, so I thought why not rip the bandaid now? I'll find out tomorrow. I really hope I'm like your friend. I'm glad I found your Vlog because everything I've read and watched said that if SLEC calls (in my case, emails) you that results are available before the original release date on the paper, it's usually you know... So I really have been very anxious. My application is for a work visa in New Zealand. My husband and daughter's were approved while mine got held because of this suspicion. I was negative in the smear results. Really praying that I'm not among the few people that becomes + in the culture. I just have a theory that maybe there's not as many applications in NZ to process in SLEC and that's why they're able to do it faster (I really pray that it's just that). Thanks again and I'm glad I found you! 🙏
@@Lia-ye8uu Hello! You are very welcome. I’m glad we’re able to at least give you a little hope🙏🏼. My friend got his 6 weeks coz he called SLEC every single week to verify also since his family got cleared with medical right away and they’re really wanting to leave the Philippines at the same time. And they’re nurses too, so that might be a contributing factor; people processing working visas get prioritized due to lack of labor force here in the US.
Praying for smooth journey for you and your family. Please keep us posted here in the thread. For sure other viewers are seeking answers in line with your situation🙏🏼
Best of luck to you 🙏🏼
@@MaricelSuniega I will keep you posted. :-) I'll find out tomorrow! Your friend's diligent in following up (haha!) I was just waiting until my due date and actually didn't want to receive word from SLEC that it's already available and to come visit the 2nd floor (Pulmo) for the results. Really praying I'm one of the few lucky ones! 🙏❤️
Hi sis. Did they call for the positive test result?
If your father's medical expires, be ready for another sputum test during his second medical. A friend of mine had did a second sputum test but the medical expired again before he got an interview date. I do not understand why our local medical is only valid for 6 months while the medical done in the us is valid for 2 years and lately have been extended to 4 years because of covid. And it cost almost P18k for the medical! Not counting the airfare, hotel, transpo and meals allowance that we from the province have to dish out on top of the P18k medical fee.
Hello Kerry. OMG! That’s mental. Actually just uploaded a Sputum Test Update for my dad and yes, I’m so afraid paying another 18k for medical and all the expenses to get there since we are from Davao City. And not to mention the time that it will take for all that process again. I had my medical done here in the US and it was very easy and straightforward. I hope your friend’s case has paid off and had granted visa. This US Visa journey is no joke and stressful. I can’t wait to finally be over this sooner than later 🙏🏼
Thank you for sharing this information. I know other viewers will find it very helpful too. 🙏🏼
Have a good day 🌞
@@MaricelSuniega hi maricel just want to ask of you already get an appointment with your dad?if ever you did was it difficult?coz my sister is having hard time to get a slot for interview
@@katherinetavera4186 Hello. As of today, our case is still at the NVC. So we couldn’t get an interview just yet. Is your case ready for interview now?
@@MaricelSuniega hello sis ? can i ask ? my Lola is having hard time to start her medical at st.lukes , they said they need her Health case number to proceed the medical
Hello..question lng regarding validity of medical..yung 6 months validity is for US , tamanpo ba? is it the same with Canada validity ?
Does that mean at NVC or In transit pa status nya? I'm not sure if it's the same with EB3, makaka sched ka lang for interview pag "ready" na status for EB3 visa.
Hello. As of today, it says “at NVC” pa😞
@@MaricelSuniega oh. I think it should be on ready status before you can book an interview schedule. Anyhow, I know Usem accommodate expedite request. Praying yours will be expedited.
Hi sis first timer here on your channel... for IR 5 interview din father ko...under sputum din sya...sa CGI website may open na schedule nung naka check ako, kaso mas maaga sa date ng result ng sputum exam kaya di ko nabook, im always checking hopefully maka booked na rin soon...
Hello Christine. Welcome to my channel. My father got his sputum test schedule right after his medical examination. If I understood correctly, your father is still waiting for a sputum test schedule?
@@MaricelSuniega Hi Ms Maricel yes po same with your father, my tatay got his sputum exam schedule after the result of his medical last April 2022, we are done already with the sputum exam last May 2022 but now we are still waiting for the sputum results then re-schedule of interview na...
hello and thank you for your channel. I have a question regarding my Filipina Wife hight school teacher. we are AT NVC awaiting interview. so we decided to risk it and take the exam at St Lukes for wife and step sons. well of course it expired. in january and no interview. She had to take the sputem test in a separate trip to Manila. Is there a way that you know of that she can get the retest of her medical and the sputum on the same trip? I cannot seem to get a contact that can tell me at St Luke's. Of course I am here in California. any guidance you can help me with is appreciated
Hi Ma’am Maricel! My parents went to SLEC yesterday (may 8, 2024) and they need to take the sputum test for may 22-23. The SLEC staff said that their visa interview on May 13,2024 is cancelled. How can we contact or atleast inform the us embassy or the NVC that they cannot push through on their interview? Or should we even contact them or not? Thank you so much!
Hello! What i did was, i contacted the US Embassy, Manila that my dad will have to undergo sputum test and unable to show up for the interview. And they cancelled his appointment. I think this is unnecessary but I did it anyway. You don’t have to inform the NVC coz your case has already been transferred to the US Embassy, Manila.
Best of luck 🤞🏼 🙏🏼
😊
For those in doubt, once you get a string of emails from NVC saying they passed the file over to USEM and another email from them regarding the USEM approving an Expedited processing, and a separate email from US Embassy saying "Congratulations" with a link to set up an appointment for interview - most often than not, the interview will push through. Medical exam of course has to be done beforehand (and passed before the interview)
hello! my expedite request was approved and i received an email advising me to schedule an appointment online but it has been 10 days and i wasn’t able to get an appointment, it always shows no available appointment. also if you call they will advise to go online.
@@velmaocsit8355 if there is no rush on your end, the online booking has a 2 to 3 month booking window to select from.
Hi Maricel, my Mom failed the medical exam St. Lukes said they will cancel the interview because she suppose to have interview July 27 but due to this sputum exam that result only will come after 2 months, now I have been trying to get interview appointment but there is no slot, medical will expire on December, so if I cannot get appointment before that, she has to go through that again?😢😢😢. Do you have tips how or when the best time to check online an interview slot? Please help. I am checking everyday but no luck
Hello Rhodora! Thank you for stopping by here in my channel. We are on the same boat. My father had to cancel visa interview for the same reason. Worst thing is, his medical certification will expire on the 27th of October. I have been religiously checking the appointment website everyday and no luck 🥺. I wish I have a top for you but let’s pray and leave it up to Him 🙏🏼 we only have 40 days till my father’s medical certificate expires. 🥴
I will be giving updates once we get some progress. Please keep us posted too🙏🏼
Godbless our journey🙏🏼

Hi maam good morning... Our case also is already approved from nvc and one of my friend told me that next step is call the nvc...
Hello Jenirma! If your case has been approved already, the NVC should send you an email to start your NVC processing. Have you heard anything from NVC after the USCIS approved your case?
Kahapon schedule ko ng medical,kaso sinabì sakin mag undergo ako ng sputum 3days, april 23,24,25 so cancelled yong interview appointment ko april 24
Hi miss maricel, I just want to ask how did u reschedule your fathers interview? Is it through call or cgi portal? Please help
Hello Rad. I was able to secure the interview slot through their cgi website. I checked every 2 hours. ☺️
Best of luck to you.
@@MaricelSuniega i just checked now and it says no appointment available. No idea if it’s for the month of September or the whole year😔 is so deppressing😔

hello, my mother just completed the medical exam and i booked her for August 9 at UStraveldocs, should we still go or should we call? her papers is still at NVC.
Hello John! Congratulations! But the US Embassy will not be able to push through with the interview if your case is still at NVC. If you don’t mind me asking, when were you guys got Documentarily qualify by NVC?
Hello Ms. Maricel my first time to your vlog hinge sana ako ng advice yung mother ko na cancelled ang embassy interview dahil sa Sputum pero after a month na cleared na rin nman sya.And finally may vaccine na rin. ask po ako ng advice kung anong magnadang gawin kasi ma eexpired na ang medical nya sa marcch 21 pero wla pa syang rescheduled ng interview and yung kanyang papers ay nasa NVC pa... Thank you in advance and God Bless.
Hello! I apologize for the late response. Any progress on getting a new appointment date for your mom? If not, let me know. I can guide you through 🙏🏼
Mam good morning po sa case po namin my appointment po kami kahapon kaso hnd kami na tuloy pinapasok kase po wala pa po daw ang mag documents namin sa US embassy from NVC. Ano po ginawa nyo para ma sa father nyo po? Sa case na ganun? Thanks po
Hello Jovelyn! Thank you for commenting and sharing your experience here in my channel. Actually, we are in the same boat. My father’s case is still at NVC. You will not be entertained by USCIS if they don’t have your case. Please check the status of your petition by clicking the link ⬇️. Also, please have your case number ready.
ceac.state.gov/ceac/
As of right now, you will have to wait for the NVC to forward your case. You can also send in an expedite request but that’s not guaranteed.
Best of luck to us 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@MaricelSuniega thank you po sa info🥰
Hello madam napaka informative ng video nyu, asks lng po ako if for non-immigrant visa b1/b2 dapat ba talaga magpa medical sa St.Lukes ?? thank you po sa reply madam
Hello Po. Sorry for the late response. Yes, in the Philippines, St. Luke’s is the only authorized medical facility for US Immigration related medical tests.
My brother's 32 year old fiance was told she would have to have a sputum test her and everyone that went today for there physical they were told the same as your father.
Hello! Very sensitive kasi talaga yung machines ng St. Luke’s. I was told even just a little mark sa lungs will be detected daw talaga
Pag natapos ko ung 3days pwede na kaya ako magpa reschedule ng appointment ko
08/28/2020 was the date they recieved our case and 09/30/2021 the time they send that our case is been approved...
Which service center is yours?
Hi, anyone here had the same experience as mine? Negative both sputum & culture tests however comparative xray came out and Dr advised seen lessen marks from the original.. now super anxious as will be having another xray aftr 3 months :(
Hello Alexandra. So St. Luke’s didn’t give you a go clearance to get a visa interview schedule I assume? As you have to wait for another 3 months to get another X-ray? Haven’t heard anything like that. Hopefully other viewers can see this comment and they’re able to share if they have the same experience.
Let us know how it’s going.
Best of luck to you 🙏🏼
I am adviced to cancel my interview due to sputum test.I dialed the number they give but it says it's not correct
Hello Lelith. I am so sorry I just now seeing this. Have you gone to your sputum test yet? If so, you can now start looking for a slot to reschedule your visa interview.
Also, I went through the same case in Slec. Subjected to sputum test din po ako.
Hello. Thank you for sharing that. Have you gotten your sputum test results yet? If so, how long did you have to wait?
I had my sputum test last April 18-20. Results will be after 2 months, June 17 to be exact. That's true that everything needs to be accomplished within 6 months (before medical expires)
hello..good day . question lang .. sa medical sa iom.. kinukuhanan ba both blood and urine para sa labtest?
Hello. Sorry for the very late response. Yes po☺️
Wondering how long the medical exam takes at st Luke’s for I 130 for female
Hello! The medical takes few hours.
Hello Maricel, so TB scars apparently stays in the lungs even if people are healed, and will be spotted in future X-rays. what if the person brings his/her medical history to the test if we already had any TB treatments in the past, and were released from the hospital. Will the doctor take a look at it and won’t ask you for further tests? Thank you for your answer.
Hello, ate? Nag undergo ka po ba ng sputum?🥹
Nag smoke parin na ang dad mo mam closer to his medical?
Hello! Sadly, yes and up to this date nag smoke pa din siya 😞😮💨. But thankfully, we received the Sputum Test Results. If you haven’t watched my recent update, I’ll leave the link ⬇️

ask kulang po mam pag 3days naba malalaman n result at my bbigay poba sila na papel????
Hello! For the sputum test, it will take 8 weeks for the results to come out ☺️
Para ngang may mali sa procedure nun nakausap mo na rep dun sa video mo na yun. Di mo naman gagawin yun kung alam mong 'di tama pagkaka-explain nya sa'yo, kaya feeling ko nadamay ka te. 'di rin naman ako expert tungkol dyan pero alam ko na hahantayin mo talaga ang email ni nvc kasi sila magii-sched ng interview ng tatay mo kasama lahat ng papers nya galing din nvc. Nako cheer up! Mangyayari din yan soon!🙂
Hello Pepito! Oo nga talaga. Yung feeling na, we’re supposed to get proper and accurate information from them kasi sila yung May training and more information about scheduling. Posting this to spread awareness na Hindi Lang dapat mag rely sa isang opinion. Kay next time careful na talaga. I believe everything happens for a reason kaya pinapapasa Diyos nalang namin ang journey na to. 🙏🏼 Hintay hintay nalang talaga tayo. Our time will come sooner than later🤎
