CONGRATS!!

[PhiLandShiR 18]

Congrats.

She passed the USEM Interview.

Now lets see what she thinks about that place ya'll call Iowa?

She's gonna go thru culture shock big time......

Maybe. She sure is excited about making that snowman though.

She has watched the snow fall on my web cam so knows what its like and is always asking if its snowing or not.

She never liked the hot weather there in Phils so I expect she will adapt with no problems.

I am so very happy. Shir passed!!!

Congratulations...im so happy for both of you.. Pls include us in ur prayers so that we can pass and be happy like u guys.. Again, I wish u both lifetime happiness. God bless you.

Thank you everyone for your kind words and thoughts in all this. Without all of you, we both would have been lost.

Shir says that most of the counsel questions, all 5 minutes of it, were about our wedding plans and gown selection. I guess if we have all that planned we are serious about this.

She got the really nice counsel who looked like Lady Diane.

The pre-screen made her nervous cause she started with, "So tell me your story"... a free style question like that is hard to answer. She was very nice though.

Thank you all so much.

yes my fiancee had the same problems as well with the pre-screen..lady was a filipina and asked why i havent been working lately....she told my fiancee 60+k in stocks and $140 grand in the banks which clearly shows that money has been steadly accumulating over a time of 5 yrs is not sufficient enough but its up to the officer inside that makes the decision...my fiancee even had my condos title in hand and estimated value in hand....my fiancee then felt really bad and her hopes were down, but the officer didnt even say anything about that stuff...pfft what a bunch of horse ###### with the pre-screens!!!! ....why is it that i hear that the pinoys/pinays working at the embassy are the ones that are the headaches and intimidating the applicants??? those filipinos working in the embassy should be happy more hardworking filipinos are trying to come to america....filipinos are knows across the world as hardworking, intelligent, kind human beings...

Maybe so, but our tax codes are a mess and I can't say I can blame some girl from the Phils who does not know all the details about them.

As long as the decision is made by someone who understands the details I don't care. Those girls do the best they can.
