hey guys, I am so , so happy, my visa was approved this morning!

i arrived at the embassy past 6 , my interview was at 7am , sorry mga sis, i can tgive you exact time as I am not wearing my watch ; i got inside the embassy and was told to go to the ticket both and showed my appointment and the lady gave me my number, sat down and waited for my number to be called ; when my number was called i went window 19 , a guy prescreener greeted me good morning , then asked if i have my brth and marriage certificates and NBI clearance , then asked me if I have ever been marrid and said no , so he asked me if i got a CENOMAR, and gave him , then aos , tax return 08; after he has asked for the necessary docs, he askked this time for proofs , w-2 or employment letter or pay stub , since my hubby is self employed i said no w-2 so i gave an inch thick of form 1099 from IRS, then asked for wedding pics, letters , and receipt of remittances ; then began asking questions ; where i met my hubby, age , how many times has he visited me those questions think is sop i noticed that he is srcibbling down some notes on a small paper , then said good luck on my interview .

it was not long after when my name was called for fingerscanning , have to do it twice , fingers dont register on computer (?) i guess ; then went to take my sit and wait for number to be called for interview with CO; I never expect it that maybe after 5 minutes and then my number flashed on the board and told to go to room 33 , and the dreaded moment has come ;

the CO who interviwed me looked like strict , doesnt smile and and very serious on his questions; the standard questions were there , date of marriage, age both me and husband , his last visit , where did we meet , but my experienced with him is one that really made me nervous ; I read posts here of interviews most often take only 5 mins , but mine took i think 30 minutes , as there are other issues like

1) age difference, I am 48 y/o and hubby is 73

2) I have remamined single , no kids until recently 2008 that i got married , I would like to think that this issues were a factor to my case as he asked me a lot of questions with regards to my hubby , his medical conditions , and by the way my husband was married 3 times so I am the fourth and according to him ,trying to make it right this time , long story short , the CO really gave me hard time inside that room , I was so nervous that there was a point in his questioning that i feel like my visa will be denied , but thank GOD , he approved , as the saying goes all's well that ends well ,a big sigh of relief .

after the interview went out of the room and the lady told me to go to window 37 for my pink slip then paid Air21 then i went out where my gay brother was waiting for me , this has been one hard , stressful and nerve wracking journey , more than one year!! but it was a journey to forever happiness .

I would like to thank you all guys , you have all been helpful and i am really really happy to have found this site ; oh by the way ,I saw enjz too , she got approved too ; again trhank you , anfd for all those still waiting , dont forget , patience is a virtue , there is sunlight at the end of the rainbow , ay ganon ba yun?

maraming , maraming salamat poe , dios mabalos , dios ti agngina . Good luck to all and God bless . :):):)

Congratulations. It is time to start packing and get on the plane to our beloved country. Have a wonderful trip. We are so happy for you.:)
