Hi Everyone!!!! :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

Woohoo!!! Good News! I got a call from my fiance earlier that the embassy was already processing and printing my visa...then after 30 minutes the embassy called me to pick-up my visa on thursday feb 14,2007 , hehehe!!!

I'm so happy! Yey, I can make it on my saturday flight, woohoo!!!!

God is good! Thanks for eveyone who congratulated me and for those who helped me thru our visa journey....

God bless all VJers!!! luv.gif

Hi honeybear... just want to ask... What particular Embassy phone number did your fiance called that gives such an information that it was already being printed? I have called the Embassy call center twice and all they can say is that its still in process. Im really interested if i can check on the real status because i dont want to reschedule my March 7 flight again.

Thanks and God bless. Hope you can help me with this.

rlpolo...same here,

I spoke with the call center the morning our visa was delivered..they gave the standard reply..

Co has it and it's being reviewed....

4 hours later the visa was in my fiancee's hand...

IMO, the call center is useless

Congrats Sofia.

It appears, a request to pick up the visa is the way to go if you want it fast.

Enjoy!
