Could you hear Coyotes there too? I bet you hear Coyotes everywhere you go. Peek-a-boo...I see you. I wonder why the OP never posts on this thread anymore. or Maybe she still does.

Hello Everyone!! I am just new here. and I found this site very helpful..

I am a CEBUANA, from Lapu-Lapu City Cebu.

My Fiance is from Hawaii.

We are still getting started on our journey.

We just met for the first time in person, last feb 26 to march 6, his been here for only 10 days because of work.

But even though our time together is so short. its not a hindrance for us to fall deeply inlove with each other. He met my family first in Cebu, then we went to Boracay, He proposed to me there, We went back in Cebu and got engaged there with my family. and now we are getting started for the fiancee visa..

I already send him my papers, so probably we will get ready and send our form I-129F on the 16th of April.

But we are a little confused about the filing fee.. I saw a news about changes in the visa fees effective this April 13..

So we need a little help about this..

Hope anyone here could help us..

Thank YOU So Much!!

May God Bless Us Always.. :-)

Filing fee is different from visa fee. If you are filing for a I-129F you need to pay $340.00. http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.eb1d4c2a3e5b9ac89243c6a7543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=db029c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD&vgnextchannel=db029c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD

My fiancee is from southern Cebu and I am from Downeast Maine. I would welcome any emails from people in the area as she'll be here in a month and I'm sure would appreciate some welcomes from Pinays who have been here awhile and can help her adjust. Maraming (daghang) salamat...K.
