Hi everyone here on VJ! I've been waiting for this time to post this message here.. finally, after the long wait, my husband's interview is done and he got approved! His experience wasn't bad at all, the Filipino prescreener was a bit strict but nice and the C.O was nice too, we were over prepared just like most of us here, he brought along with him all the letters i sent him for the past 6 years, our wedding album, chat logs, money tranfer receipt and tons of pictures! they only requested for our pictures and the CO looked mostly on the old ones, (when i was still a size zero and my husband looks like a geek! LOL) she requested for the picture that we were actually signing our marriage certificate and good thing that my husband brought everthing with him, most of the question are about how we met, who introduced us, how did i get here in the US and my the last time my husband and i saw each other.. He arrived there at 6am and done by 11am, requested for a visa pick up but not granted, but its ok, we live around metro manila so it wont take them long i hope.. This tuesday i booked his flight from Manila to San Francisco and it will be the beginning of our forever..

Thank you all my VJ friends with special mention to sis Rina for all the advices, prayers and support, hope everyone here will be finally reunited with their loved ones soon.. Merry Christmas to all of us!
