Well I just got the call from my wife and she got her pink slip!

Here is how it all went and took like 3 minutes.

9/4/09 at 6:30 am was the scheduled time.

Questions were:

What is your name? What is your birthday? When were you married? What is your husband's name? Where does he live? What does he do?

"Congratulations and welcome to the United States of America" the interviewer said. :dance:

He said the visa will arrive in under 10 days. She told the American interviewer "ohhh, you are gwapo, like my asawa" I am sure glad she waited to after the interview to say that and not before :blush:

I want to thank this site for all the information. One great point she took with her was to look into the eyes of the interviewer when answering questions to show you are not lying.

Anyway all, once the visa comes to her in the mail the plane ticket will be purchased. I am off to look at the message boards on plane flights. Any people planning on flying from Manila to the West coast of the USA in 2 weeks?

I am so happy and so in love!

Hi ski4evr.

Congrats to your wife for getting the pink slip!

Hope you can help us answer this: From the time your wife was notified by the USEM that she can call and schedule her interview, how far in advance was she notified? did the operator offer the earliest possible date (if yes, what was it...if known)?

We're just trying to figure out how soon we (our daughter and I) can be home. Waiting for USCIS to transfer our case to NVC and for NVC to transfer our case to the USEM.

Thanks for the inputs!
