Medical Experienced:

Day1:Aug 20 08' wed Arrived at st lukes 2:50pm along with my daughter the guard greeted me "good afternoon ma'am" he checked our appointment letters ,our 2x2 photos and passport he instructed me to go to the reception area at the reception area the woman gave me 2 sets of paper need to be filled out one for my daughter and one for me.then the woman checked our paper and she told us to proceed to the cashier i paid 18,350 pesos then we proceed to the immunization room for skin testing (TB) urine(Pregnancy Test) then extraction of the blood(Drug Test) then the doctor asked me the ff: does she had immunization when she was a baby?any hospitalization ?what kind of illness? any history of Tb or primary complex ? any surgery? when was your last menstruation? when was your last sex? any vaccination ? had chicken fox before? then when were done at the immunization room we're being advised to be at the US counter then the woman called the name of my daughter to proceed to room8 for physical examination the doctor asked the same question from immunization room does she had immunization when she was a baby?any hospitalization ?what kind of illness? any history of Tb or primary complex ? any surgery? and then she told me to undressed my daughter then made her lay down on bed checking her stomach and she checked also if she had hemorrhoids then were done for her physical exam. we went up for my x-ray took only like 10 to 15 minutes after the x-ray the man told us to come back on Friday afternoon thats it for my day1 came out around 4:55pm

Day2 Aug 22 08' Fri 3:40pm the guard checked our receipt stub and advised me to gave it to counter A then to the immunization room for my daughter , the man told me from counter A that "ma'am wait for your name to be called" so while waiting for my name to be called we went to the immunization room the doctor measured and checked the skin testing of my daughter that it turned out positive although it was very tiny.she advised us to go up to x-ray room to find out if her lungs is clear then she said if her x-ray will turned okay then she can have her vaccination ,while attending for my daughter's x-ray i heard my name called but i could not hear it very well what floor i should go because the woman voice who page me was like breaking out.so i started to asked from the ground floor to the fourth floor but they answer me the same "no ma'am your paper is not here" i asked one personnel that i heard my name for second time but it was not clear for me what floor i should go but he was just telling me " wait ma'am they will page you again and listen to it carefully" but i had waited and waited i never heard it again so i started to asked again from ground floor until i end up unto US counter and the woman there told me to proceed to room number 7 for physical exam since i haven't yet get during my day1 because i had my period that day ,inside the room number 7 the doctor asked me almost the same question during my day 1 when was your last sex? your last menstruation? have you ever tried marijuana? do you drink or smoke? do you have any surgery ?any hospitalization before ? any TB history and she asked me if i had any infections like UTI then she made me naked checking my breast pressing down a little on my stomach then checking if i have hemorrhoids(almuranas) waaaa then after that i heard my name was being called again at the immunization room for vaccination means i passed my medical only i could not be able to get my result because i need to wait for the result of my daughter's medical examination so i got 2 shots for MMR and for anti tetanus advised to come back on Tuesday since holiday on Monday 25th of Aug .so that's it for my day2 came out 5:20pm

Day3 Aug 26 08' Tue about 11am again the guard checked my receipt stub then we proceed to counter A then need to to wait for the name of my daughter to be called i started to get worried because it has been 2hrs from waiting still my daughter was not called yet i was thinking something is wrong with her x-ray about 3pm i went back to counter A i asked the man i was waited for like 4hrs now but still she was not yet called so the man asked me"are you done with yours ma'am ?" i said "yes" "do you got the shots?"i said" yes" then he said "okay ma'am just wait at the second floor your daughter will be called there for immunization "so because i was so excited to know the result i asked him quickly so it means she is fine right? but he replied to me just wait there ma'am while waiting i met anabelle(angelbelle), maricar(andy&maricar) and prettynpink just forgot to ask her true name i was having fun talking to them especially to anabelle so about 5pm her name was called and i was very happy because i heard that she needs to proceed to the immunization room it means my daughter also passed

so we need to go down to the ground floor waited our name to be called for the result after long waiting we got our result and on hand the x-ray film and they asked a few question like what is my name ?your b-day and when my daughter was born then the woman said they will be the one to forward our result to the Embassy along with our passport when we came out it was raining so we need to buy umbrella from the man outside the St. Lukes, we came out from the St. lukes past 7pm, that was all for our medical experienced hope it will help those applicants who will have their medical soon.

My interview:

Sept 03 08' the whole night i didn't sleep because no matter how i tried i cant be sleepy i was nervous, excited and a little bit scared for my CO if she will be mean to me like some other vj member encountered during their interview.i really have a problem of getting up early so i asked my husband to wake me up my 4am also to anabelle in case my husband could not make it i even asked filiricans to call me about 4am i thought i will have a good sleep that night

Sept 04 08' Thu 4am My big day ! my phone was ringing it was my husband wishing me luck and praying for us for a good consul after we talked my phone rang again it was anabelle trying to awake me she doesn't know i was fully awake the whole night

arrived at the embassy with my daughter about 5:40am i saw the guard i was still walking going to his direction he already asked me what time will be my interview so i said "6:30 " so he checked my id and our appointment letter then were sitting at the waiting area along with some other applicants about 6am the guard started to open the door and he said " you can come in now by 5 " so we need to group ourselves by 5 so the screening started then we proceed inside the building the room was wide i saw windows numbered 17,18.19,20 were sitting in front those window then the guard advised to get ready our appointment letters and we need to get our priority number from the 2 little booth located at the left side of the room so after that, the monitor started numbers can be shown and what room you should go, i saw my number 6017 flashed at window 21 i put my suit case, my thick clear book and my album in front of her i had pretty filipina pre-screener she was nice and she talked to me like she was my friend then asked me the ff questions:

your name?

who petition you?

when did you met him?

how? which website?

when did you get ,married?

how many times he visit you?

does your husband married before?

how many times ?

my daughter interrupted me while we are talking and she heard it my daughter complaining that she wanted to pee she said

Is that her daughter?

then she asked again, how many times he visit you?

when she was done asking questions she look at my documents and she said ok let me see the pictures of your wedding and so i started to retrieve some of my pictures from my album but she stopped me and said "i need only few pictures" i thought she will ask more proofs from me but instead she talked to my daughter " keystill you can go to the bathroom now " and she asked her "do you know where and how ? and my daughter answered "yes" and lastly she said thank you ma'am you can sit down now and wait for your number to be called that's it for the pre-screener!

then after a few minutes i was called for finger printing at window 16 from the window 16 i only sat down for like 5minutes the interview started, i saw anabelle get inside the room number 32 for interview she was just inside for like 3minutes only, i said wow! that was quick!!!! 2 more number flashed after anabelle then my number appeared also at room number 32 i guess this is the famous number

i had a pretty consul she was chubby her hair fixed very well i greeted her good morning and she replied to me and said "have a set" then she was reading what the pre-screener wrote on my paper and started to asked the same question

The additional Question:

why he got annulled instead of divorced?

do you know the name of his ex's?

do you know where his ex's live ?

what does he do for living?

and she look at my daughter and said is that her daughter? do you have pictures of you with her? i gave her 3 pictures of me together with my daughter but she said" i want more" i said "that is all i got here ma'am" then she said ah okay then writing down on my paper something and said

okay just wait outside your name will be called again i was there only for like 3 minutes my co was very fast asking questions after a few minutes i was called at window 37 i thought i got only pink slip wew! i got white and pink slip and on my white slip asking me the medical records during my pregnancy and delivery to prove to them that keystill was really my daughter i was like felt so sad because i was in my hotel for 17days run out of money and need to get my medical records i gave birth in cagayan de oro city it was really frustrating to me i don't even know how to write anymore my address on my delbros delivery paper because i was suddenly out of my mind started to worried what i should do to get my medical records from cagayan de oro city anabelle told me to calm down it was really frustrating seems i don't want to talk to anybody that day but ,i realized we are still being bless because i know i can provide the documents that they need from me and at least we are approved and I'm very glad i met filiricans she stretched out her hand for me .

But good thing is that i submitted already my additional documents before i left manila last Tuesday Sept 9 08' only i was confused because on my white slip i got also DOCx1 is that means DV?

My purposed of posting my experienced here to help some of our vj family to get ready of everything that possibly the consul needed from them. just hoping that visa will be here soon
