DV paid in AUGUST, Visa pending as of OCTOBER 7

[pie 0]

pie if you will take a look on the list, boknat has the same dates with you, and boknat's DV is with the embassy already, so there is s chance yours could be at the embassy too. Your petitioner should call the embassy for updates. Or you can do what twilight did, apply for CENOMAR now and try to get it ASAP and take it to the embassy. Try to find her post on this thread on which window to go, find it between page16-18, i can't remember...

bevs, PingLocalHostess is hanging us on suspense here. I saw her too, but she's gone again.

A10n BOKNAT now....teeheee... ...any update on ur visa status??tnx pls..

kamusta pie. i haven't contacted the embassy since last night (it's 7:10am on monday morning here in the states). i'm probably going to give it some time and try calling them back on thursday (friday in manila). i must have tried calling close to a hundred times until i finally got a hold of grace. ay nuku! sobrang mainit ang ulo ko! i can honestly say that it was well worth calling since i found out that it's under review at the consulate. i'm pretty sure you're in the same batch as us.

anyhow, i'll post any updates whenever they happen. good luck!

tnx 4d prompt reply,boknat... ...guess,we really hve 2lean on each other huh,along wd d vj'ers here... ...keep us posted pls...God be with us all...

btw,hve u tried tracking ur status online wd delbros?any changes since u mentioned its under review now?tnx pls

Okay i am back! *whew* Lol Oh my God..... i felt like a crazy stalker waiting for the Delbros dude. If only im not shy, i woulda hugged him so tight hahahahaha. I think i asked 3 other guys if they were from Delbros... shameless! So i texted the dude and told him im wearing this dress blah blah. He was quick, he had me sign some stuff.... just glanced at my ID for 2 seconds.... and he gave me the packet. So now visa on hand . Im happy BUT i want you guys to get your visa's too so we can all go celebrate together. Anyway, Matt was extremely happy .

So i want to thank jamesNrei, Bevs and trinidad-lohnerfor bearing with my rantings and to boyceedith, JamesRachel, HoneySkin, STEPHnRIA, JoseRizal, Godismystrength, nickoftime, jettyglenn, ....... ALL of YOU.... for giving me support. Now i can stop being sulky and send uber positive vibes that all of you will receive delbros text this week. Laws of Attraction..... it has to work.

jamesNrei: Ahhh you just have to get your visa! The hide and seek with the delbros boy was fun hahaha. I was kidnapped by my family as soon as i got home... they had me go to relatives... saying bye and stuff. Ermmm i hate goodbyes. They all say they'll miss me (prolly coz noone will fix their computer's for free now Lol). My mom is panicking... its like it just sinked in that im leaving the country next week. Im waiting for my dad to get home from japan this week. My brothers are like..... can i have this and that Lol, darn! Congrats to your son... weeeee he is so brave. My dentist before never and he looked pretty scary with his scary tools *shivers*. We'll work on the charity box when we get together hahaha some of us could dance or sing . I had to have my braces removed... will continue that in the US... i hate to think about the fees .

Yeyyyy we are doing the CFO on the 27th. That will be fun Weeeee, id love that. I really dont need nbi clearance? I got police clearance and SSS ID. No drivers license.... lazy. Then we all go for lunch or dinner? Weeee where?

trinidad-lohner: If i cant find a job in the US. Ill carry a banner that says "GEEK for HIRE" Hahaha. Oh right, they picked and they were asking if "pwede hulugan?" May mag-ask pa kung pwede 4 gives Lol .

bevs: It took me awhile to get back on.... my bro dragged me away as soon as i got home.

jettyglenn: When are you going to Manila?

Hiya to the newbies of the list.....

Hi Ping, congrat`s, wish we fly together but wont happened now. We same POE guess it would be nice fly together but as i said wont happened. Good Luck, Anyway there and dont forget your halloween costume to your Hubby.

[trinidad-lohner 0]

hi naku, ping, inexcite mo kaming lahat!!!! hahaha...CONGRATS!!!!!

pumayag ka na kahit gives o hulugan, sayang din, hehehe...pero wag ka ng umasa babayaran din ha? u know, ganyan pag hulugan tapos wala ka pa, hihihi....only in da pilipins, isa sa mamimiss mo yan....hehehe

bevs, jettyglenn, jamesnrei, pie, twilight, christian's gem, and everyone here, dont worry, susunod na tayo!!!!

jamesnrei, ok ako dun sa may la salle taft para di na ganun kalayo kung pastamp tayo sa CFO...i just take taxis now coz i sold my car na, hehehe...excited!!!

btw, i spoke with my hubby about ping's visa coz i was uber excited on the monday developments and then he asked me when was ping interviewed...i told him sept 12 (nanghula lang ako kasi i think i remember ping being interviewed after me, sana tama)...anyways, he was so frustrated and wanted to call the embassy right that very moment...he said he's gunna tell whoever picks up the phone that he will have this issue aired on NBC (bec my brother-in-law is a news producer of NBC network in the US)...naku po, i had to calm him....he asked me if i think it'll help...i told him to just calm down for awhile and wait within the week coz Lorraine told him last Friday to wait within 5 working days...i dont want lorraine to get pissed and get back at him by putting our case last....pero sarap talaga ipa-news noh...hehehe...he believes it all boils down to corruption...the DV is a new process and is a way to get more money from us since the docs we submit are from NSO (i submitted mine with NSO receipt pa ha, kulang na lang i-attach ko pa yung envelope ng UNISYS that held my docs, coz i ordered my BC and MC online)... sabihin ko kay hubby go na niya yung news pag wala pa this week, hehehe

basta, let's keep the faith....nafifeel ko this week na, yahoo!!! (madam auring, is that u?)

[trinidad-lohner 0]

jamesnrei, ping, ill join you on the 27th if i get my passport within the week...let's do the 10am then lunch or the 3pm then snacks, coffee, til dinner, and nightcap, hehehe?

anyone here is welcome to join us....

btw, dun sa mga taga-bicol, wala bang taga camsur? i really wanna go there and take my hubby there...pareho kaming addict sa beach at surfing...hehehe..mukhang maganda, maganda ba talaga? next destination sana namin yun or siargao...any suggestions or comments? (teka, di pa nga ako nakakaalis eh pagbalik at pagbabakasyon ko na iniisip ko, hahah...sabi nga ng mga sisters ko, feeling ko daw yata magbabakasyon lang ako ulit....hehehe)

[pauLjeN 1]

i just got the magic text from Delbros, says my visa is prepared for dispatch already! and i just checked Delbros website: 2008-10-20 18:34:11 SHIPMENT RECEIVED AT DISTRIBUTION CENTER... i'll be having my visa on hand this week! im having mixed emotions now... happy and sad i started packing here na..

Guys, dont ever lose hope. Progress is here already and for sure lots and lots of good news will fill this timeline.. God's answering our prayers.... I hope all of you will get your good news soon..

nawala ka sa chatroom

[PingLocalHostess 1]

JamesRachel: You are almost up... no worries.

trinidadlohner: Thanks . Yeah, ive been thinking about complaining too. But then im more afraid of they might hold my case coz i complain. They might give you some trivial reason why its taking longer like under review. Or worse, they might put me on FPU. :/ So i just waited.... but i hated the wait. It was an understatement when i said i was stressed. But if you look at it, there is movement... compared to the last couple of weeks. So im thinking they might be moving their a$$es now. Maybe they are not systematic. What i hated the most was NOT KNOWING whats going on.... it sucks assuming stuff. You mind will play tricks on you... could concoct worse case scenarios. We need to keep our sanity on check hehehe. We dont wanna be flying to US in a straightjacket. Sorry, i was talking with Matt when you messaged me .

jamesnrei: Ill be staying in Moonlight, Parañaque in my mom's friend's house. Im like a lost sheep in manila Hahaha.

PauLjen: Wow for sure, you'll have it in your hands in a few days.

jettyglenn: I already added you in friendster.

Its moving fast people. I have a good feeling about this this week.

[trinidad-lohner 0]

jettyglenn, i was trying to find kasi the interview experience of stephnria which you suggested me to read...tapos when i got back sa chatroom wala ka na...

ping, what's FPU?

[PingLocalHostess 1]

FPU - Fraud Protection Unit (i think)

Im in the chatroom if you wanna talk..... i cant seem to sleep. My body clock is based on CST.

[trinidad-lohner 0]

ping,

di na kita inabot sa chatroom...

me too, i cant sleep...but nothing unusual for me coz i got sleeping problems since junior high...i just stopped my sleeping pills coz i dont wanna be addicted to or dependent on it...i just use it when badly needed or if i got an early appointment the following day...been changing sleeping pills very so often coz the pills tend to not work for me after 3 days of taking it....

im on PST naman though i chat with my hubby everyday between 3pm and 6pm (PI time) coz he comes home 12mn (that's 3pm here)...he works from 2pm til 11pm kasi or sometimes he stays till 1am sa work...he's got mondays and tuesdays as days off (you know, vegas, hehehe) and wednesdays his admin day so he goes in for a few hours lang then goes to his baseball game at 7pm...so, today, he sleeps in coz it's his day off.... i dont wanna call him yet coz he deserves to catch up on lost sleep staying up with me everyday, hehehe...

[PingLocalHostess 1]

Im in the chatroom, idle hahaha.

Lucky him, you are considerate. Im such a #######, i call him all the time. Sometimes i wonder if he regrets having US unlimited calls. He never complains though coz he knows i misses him terribly. Ah so your hubby likes sports... mine likes martial arts.

Ive always been insomniac. I cant sleep more than 4-5 hours. I havent the slightest clue why. So i just google away on my computer. I have to restore everything before i leave so it'll be like brand new.

he said he's gunna tell whoever picks up the phone that he will have this issue aired on NBC (bec my brother-in-law is a news producer of NBC network in the US)...naku po, i had to calm him....he asked me if i think it'll help...i told him to just calm down for awhile and wait within the week coz Lorraine told him last Friday to wait within 5 working days...i dont want lorraine to get pissed and get back at him by putting our case last....pero sarap talaga ipa-news noh...hehehe...he believes it all boils down to corruption...the DV is a new process and is a way to get more money from us since the docs we submit are from NSO (i submitted mine with NSO receipt pa ha, kulang na lang i-attach ko pa yung envelope ng UNISYS that held my docs, coz i ordered my BC and MC online)... sabihin ko kay hubby go na niya yung news pag wala pa this week, hehehe

basta, let's keep the faith....nafifeel ko this week na, yahoo!!! (madam auring, is that u?)

mrs.lohner, it will be a sensational news, but as ping said they might make it even harder for you. why not after you get the visa? They removed the DV already, so it will be useless?

seemed like the ones interviewed sept 12th are the ones getting their visas...

jamesnrei, you're next to post good news....

i don't want to expect, but my gulay give us our visa now! lol... oh, at last,my fiance will call thurs if we won't hear from them on that day.

called the PRISM at taft, we can go there even without passport, bring photocopy of birth certificates, and 2 valid id's and photocopy,pay P250. Mon-Fri 10am, 130pm, and 330pm, lasts for 2-3hours they'll give us a yellow certificate. Then we proceed to the CFO office at Quirino Ave. we pay P400 for the green certificate and stamp they close at 5pm. So it will be better to attend the 10 am session or 130pm we just have to rush over to Quirino. The girl I talked with said those married to a foreigner or fiancee attends the seminar, so i think you really have to attend.

jamesnrei: Ill be staying in Moonlight, Parañaque in my mom's friend's house. Im like a lost sheep in manila Hahaha.

Moonlight??? maybe it's Moonwalk? I am not familiar with moonlight?

Hmmm I think you guys are still sleeping after the late night chat. What's the latest scoop?? The two of you are insomniacs! I can just imagine when we go out you two will be all wide awake, when I will be snoozing by 11pm! lol
