it's okay... I'm 26 now, turning 27 this july... 22 is our age gap..hehehe

oo nga pala hehe...i was out of knowhere. By the way...asko ko din...ive read kc about 650 pesos, is that the documents verification? others pay only $131 for visa processing at BDO...I wanna ask only just to satisfy myself :) Im planning kc to pay tomorrow at Banco De Oro before my medical. Im just hoping that my medical will take only two days so i can go back home on Friday morning. Im still in Manila for my 2nd day medical on your interview date. Good Luck.

bedirisinghe, you file for K1, whereas Lecy is CR1/IR1 visa, so the costing is different :) K1 visa u have to pay the $131, whereas for CR1/IR1 we pay to USCIS/NVC in the US and we dont have to pay at the embassy anymore (except for the medical cost and courier cost). Good luck on your interview!

Lecy, all the best for your interview as well :thumbs: I was also very nervous (VERY) :) But it went well.. Im sure it will go well for you too. I have posted my interview experience with list of things to bring, u can check my topic if u like. But anyways, i think u are already set to go. :)

try to research more, kasi baka old post na yung nabasa mo, yung recent post na nabasa ko kasi tungkol sa document verification eeee... hindi na daw ganon, instead prepare for your cenomar... pero hindi rin ako sure..... pero ako wala akong binayaran para sa document verification....

ipagdarasal kong matapos mo medical mo in two days... :thumbs: and God will hear our prayers...
