Sorry for your loss (F) , caillen

Danoco, I have found tickets one way, all the way from Manila to Indianapolis or Chicago, or Detroit for 800 $ taxes included ( NW own online site ) . The combination AA and JAL flights from manila are the cheapest way to go but have nasty connection times, or alot of connections, June flights for them holding in the 570-650 USD$ range. I got a line on a travel agent in makati I will check on next week

Remember the reason for the season folks. God Bless and good luck

Hello Everyone,

We have been very quiet for last few weeks and Lorna went to Interview Tuesday April 11th. They only asked her three very basic questions. How long you know Robert, when did you meet and how many times he come to see you? Thats it? Its Lornas opinion that if your paperwork is perfect in the sense that its all properly filles and correct, the interview is just a formality.

So we had booked a flight in advance on china airlines for April 26th because of Easter Week the whole place shuts down for three days. Lorna should get the delbros next week and the following week she will be flying to usa.

Thanks PW and everyone for your input and wish you all the best. We will see you on the other side in the AOS section.

Robert & Lorna

01/22/2005 to 02/02/05-- Met Lorna

02/22/2005 to 03/29/05-- Visited Lorna in Tagbilaran

05/03/2005 to 06/07/05-- Built Room Additon in Tagbilaran, Bohol

07/11/2005 to 08/11/05-- Vacationed in Bohol

09/12/2005------------------ I 129F

09/14/2005 to 11/02/05---- In Bohol, traveled to Mindanao

11/09/2005------------------ 2nd NOA

worries,and very depressed.

Do you think it will not cause any problem again of my birth certificate

in applying for the AOS.Its the reason why i was put in AR because of the

preparation date was earlier than the date i was born and registered.Do i need

to bring with me any additional and supporting documents or an affidavit of discrepancy?

Yeah, the passport is outside the brown or yellow envelope when it is delivered and no need to open the brown envelope. Like in my case, the one who deliver my Visa gave me my passport and the instructions that if theres problem with the visa like wrong spelling in it, there's number you have to call. But as what I saw on mine, my passport is inside the plastic not in the brown envelope in which brown envelope can be open only by the immigration officer in your port of entry. :yes:

If there's cut on it, never mind, thats what yellow or brown envelope looks like when it is delivered to you. There's some part or corner that is being cut. However you cant really opened it cuz there's an instructions on the other side of it that only your immigration officer can do that.The most important thing is you have your Visa delivered. Good luck to you guys who still in a row..... :thumbs:

Hello there guys! Hi pw...how's everything? It's been awhile since i post in vj...I had my visa interview last april 4 & my fiance is with me during the interview...until now I haven't got my visa from delbros...they said its not yet release by USE and when I called USE it is still being processed...we were not told personally by the consul if we are approved or not but we saw the approved sticker on our case folder...we were not told we are on AR...and I can't think of wny reason to be on AR...it's just frustrating coz the others got their visas after 3days & to think some of them live in the province while I live in manila...so anyone here who's experiencing the same thing...i know how you are feeling right now. I just pray that things will turn out ok...God bless to all of you!
