CONSUL AT THE USE ARE VERY KIND AND NICE TO TALK TO. I WAS VERY NERVOUS DURING THE INTERVIEW FROM STEP 1 TO THE FINAL INTERVIEW. THEY DIDN'T EVEN GET ALL MY DOCUMENTS , THE PRE INTERVIEWER ( FILIPINO ) ASKED ONLY FOR THE BC, NBI, LETTERS,PICTURES AND AFFIDAVIT OF SUPPORT. WHEN I ASKED HIM THAT IF I NEED TO GIVE HIM THE OTHER SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS HE SAID NO ITS ENOUGH YOUR FIANCE INCOME IS PRETTY ENOUGH. SO I SMILED. BUT ITS NOT THE FINAL ONE ....... SO THE FILIPINO GUY TOLD ME TO SITDOWN FOR THE MEANTIME AND WAIT AGAIN FOR THE FINAL FINGERPRINTING...... SO WAIT WAIt WAIT..... NERVOUS NERVOUS NERVOUS.... WISHING THAT WILLIAM IS THERE TO COMFORT ME AND MAKE ME SMILE AND FEEL BETTER BECAUSE IM REALLY NERVOUS .

THEN THEY CALL ME FOR THE INDEX FINGER SCANNING.... THEN SITDOWN AGAIN THEN WAIT WAIT WAIT........ AFTYER A FEW MINUTES MY NUMBER FLASHED IN THE FLASHER BOARD. ......7015 ( THATS MY LUCKY NUMBER )..... :D THEN I WENT TO THE COUNTER 28 THE FIRST COUNTER IN THE RIGHT SIDE WERE WE ARE SITTING DOWN. GOSH MY HEART PALPITATE VERY FASTER ITS LIKE MY BP GOES UP TO 180/180 HE HE HE HE ......

THEN ITS TIME TO GO INSIDE THE CONSUL BOOTH...... THERE IS THE CONSUL .... MY GOSH ....... :hehe: NERVOUS VERY NERVOUS. BUT WHEN THE CONSUL GREET ME ... HOW ARE YOU CHONA? I FELT BETTER AND I KNOW THE CONSUL IS NICE .... SO I GREET HIM BACK " GOOD MORNING SIR " THEN THE INTERVIEW START.......

FIRST QUESTION: WHERE IS MERYLL? 9 MY DAUGHTER WHOS INCLUDED IN THE 1-129F

HOW DID YOU MET WILLIAM?

WHAT DID YOU DO THEN

THIS THREE ??? END MY INTERVIEW FOR ABOUT LESS THAN 2 MINS.... THEN THE CONSUL TOLD ME THE MAGIC WORD....

WELCOME TO AMERICA!!!!

then he told me to sitdown and wait for my name to be called for the VISA instruction........

I was praying for all of us there , we were 7 in group most of them from visayas region..... God is good he made us all happy that day..... congratulations to all of us......

Congratulations ! :thumbs:

Best wishes to you both and to your new life together. (F) (F)

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
