Btw, I suggest to those flying with little kids (2-12 y/o) you can apply for tax reduction (50% off) at Department of Tourism (Kalaw Ave.). Just present them your child's passport. Pay for P200 (processing fee). So you will be saving P600+ pesos which you can add for your terminal fee (P750) instead. Just a tip.

Rei: I know there's a DFA kiosk in the airport. Balikbayans can waive the travel tax but have to pay the P200 processing fee. Probably it can also offer the the reduction for kids. :)

OMG!!!! I MISSED YOU ALL!!!

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THOSE WHO GOT THEIR VISAS...I'M SO HAPPY FOR ALL OF YOU ESPECIALLY KAY JRIZAL AT STEPHNRIA (MGA ORIGINALS) AND ZARJO (LEGEND), KAY MAILENE DIN..I'LL BE HAPPIER IF PRETTY MOMMY, CGEM, MINANG GET THEIRS....AND SYEMPRE, SA LAHAT PA NG NAIWAN...DON'T LOSE HOPE...VISAS WILL FLOOD THIS WEEK...I MISS DOING THIS... WAIT! :dance: :dance: :dance: visa cult dance for luck again to those still waiting...

jamesnrei, goodluck on your exams...i sure know you'll make it...how's your dress? ang hirap pala ng wala dito, napapagtsismisan :lol:

jrizal, kelan flight mo? grabe ka ha, nakapagtayo ka ng consultancy firm kagad, nauna ka pa sa mga negosyong plinano namin....

pinglocalhostess, yes, im here november 30th technically coz my flight from HNL-LAS got delayed, arrived 12:10 am (30th), supposedly arriving 11:35pm (nov 29th) and day 1 here, i was already driving around...woke up and realized my hubby left for work, he left some money and car keys so, im off the road day 1, hehehe...btw, i didnt have a hard time at my POE (honolulu, hawaii)...i was just asked by the filipino immigration officer two things (how long have you been married and what's your husband's name)...i was thinking, yun na ba yun? then he wrote A1 on that blue card he handed me (the one you fill-out) and told me that i will have to go thru agricultural (same experience you had but, they didnt open my luggage or something, my luggage were on TSA locks so i really dont know if they opened them or what)...come vegas, my hubby was already there and we were wondering if that's it for me coz i told him about the A! on my blue card..he said, maybe that's it coz the moment you get out of those doors you're in vegas and the moment you got in honolulu technically you are in the US...tama ba? parang it was so easy for me, feeling ko tuloy may na-omit ako process.... :worried:

guys, does anyone here know what's next for a k3 visa holder (though i'm checking other forums later pero syempre consult muna ko sa pamilya ;) )..my hubby and i went to SS office here in henderson, nevada and we were informed that we need to file the EAD and the SS office worker (a filipina) happens to not know specifics..she just told us to call the US Homeland Security about it but she's sure that i will be needing my BC. MC, passport and employment authorization form...batorney (este, attorney) manny? ano ba suggestion mo? i can't wait to work!!!!!

to everyone, keep the faith and you'll be on marathon soon, hahaha...nbfsb, hindi ka pa ha?

p.s.

hindi pa po ako nagmamarathon, ONE A DAY (get the hint) na multivitamins ko here..nakalimutan ko kasi magdala stresstabs....hahahha

and yes, i suggest you take your undies coz malamig....but weather here in vegas is manageable, just like weather in baguio, cool lang...

till next time muna, hubby is in the kitchen prepping dinner...he basically does everything coz i dont know a single household chore, hehe...malas nya!!! maybe pag nasa mood ako, in time, ill try to learn some... :lol:

trinidad-lohner: Si Ria yung Legend. Si Zarjo yung Pioneer. Naku, baka magtampo pa yung dalawa sa iyo! :D Also, si Christian's Gem got her Magic Text after we parted ways at CFO yesterday. Had my passport stickered and si Ria got hers also and had it stickered also yesterday. It was a great day for the three of us. I guess our cheeseburger was the lucky charm! Hehehe...:D :D :D

BTW, I'm leaving on Tuesday 10:00pm via PAL so that it will be a direct flight. :)
