After the 8 weeks delay from SLEC, I finally got my interview last July 28th. My fiance was with me during my interview. I got pink slip ( thank you wizardfitz for giving me the tips to call the NSO, DELBROS and US Embassy to make sure if they have verified my papers :thumbs: )

On July 31st, I got my visa!!! :dance: :dance: I will be flying to US on August 16th at 7:45am NWA. My routing is Manila - Narita Japan - Portland - Tampa. Maybe I can get a companion by posting this hehehe.

Our lawyer told me to ask the immigration officers if they can stamp my visa for temporary work permit. He said it's a hit and miss thing and it wouldn't hurt to try. Is there anybody here who have tried doing it? My POE is Portland.

I'll take this opportunity also to thank everyone for all the help extended to us, VJ family especially wizardfitz(Mike and Maribel, for the tips), patientlywaiting(Maribeth and Randy for the chikahan blues), mysticjoyce(Sis Jocelyn, for giving me tips for my last visit to SLEC), sugar(for moral support), fitzee21(for the info), alizeyah(whom I accidentally met at the US embassy. Thanks for relaying to us "girls" all the info everytime you have finished the prescreening, consul interview hehehe) and to our lawyer (Eric T. Dean) He's there every step of the way and even called ST. Luke and emailed the consulate when St. Luke almost "stopped" me from getting my clearance.

Salamat sa inyong lahat! kitakits tayo sa susunod na yugto ng ating paglalakbay (AOS)
