Hello everyone!!!I decided to post again after being quiet for sometime here in the JOURNEY...I chose not to say anything about the case before due to the depression I felt because of the delay that we got after my medical at St. Lukes due to the extension of waiting and undergone sputum test and need to wait for 2 months ..which was like equivalent to another year of waiting to be together with my husband..I will be honest that it wasnt easy for me to talk about it..and there were alot of questions on my mind before..why should that happened..but it helped me too.. to realize and somewhat look at the bright side of that delay.though I ready myself also of the truth that I might be sick and I have wanted to be cured too if ever so it became easy for me to accept..plus with the help of alot of friends here who gave inspirational thought and messages...Im really thankful for you guys..But then, God is really good and He made me realized that there is always a reason for whatever happening on your life...He touched me to open my mind that as long as i have entrust all my faith with Him that He will make ways and He will make things happen in real :yes: ..Things went okay for my medical after 2 months of waiting and I was rescheduled for a new date of interview on November 7...I will not elaborate anymore how was the interview went or the questions that have been asked to me..let's just say she really tested me how well I know my husband..but even me I wasnt sure how it went though I have heard my consul said"WELL MA'AM IT SEEMS THAT EVERYTHING IN YOUR PACKET IS IN LINE"... :) so i picked up her line and assumed I passed the interview though she was so unpredictable...unlike the consul in the other side booth who I have heard being so joyful...but I had the good feeling when I went out the embassy...and just to add on it for info please prepare a MARRIAGE INDEX on your hand on your interview day...you can never tell..but in my case I was asked for it..good thing I read it here and got from NSO right away because so happened the pre-screener looked for that paper to me..she even told me.."let me see maybe its just a marriage certificate" and when I showed her..she said "yes this is the marriage index..very good!" :thumbs: So,to those who are in K3 and CR1 visa..there will be no harm to be overprepared than sorry...It was really a big help to read posts here and learn because I just read it one day and there was something in me that never stop me to get it right away even it costs too much to get it just delivered I chose it for convenience...because I think it helped me to received my visa after 2 working days from the time of the interview...so then I told myself "WOW I REALLY PASSED!!!" :dance: because I had some apprehensions still after the interview..but God didnt make me feel that too long because I got the visa and it was so fulfilling...and we both happy..I know there will be alot of paper works still by the time I am with my husband but just to be able to be with him I know we can make it again..with all the prayers and guidance from our Good Lord...Just lift it up to HIM...So to those who are still on the process of getting their visas..for sure you can make it too just wait...patienty wait for it...

I also want to extend my BIG THANKS to all the people here and all your posts..it serves as a big help..also to those members who I got to befriend with...who answered my questions from the time I started my membership here until now..and those who answered my personal messages..thank you so much...
