Arrived at USEM 6am with fear and butterflies on my stomach because of my problem about the affidavit of support that my fiance sent me..( he forgot to tick the I Intent blah..blah..)I'm worried that it will caused delay from getting me a visa...but I just prayed that it wont be a big deal to the consul...Inside USEM I get a number waited for about an hour until the Filipina Pre-screener get all my docs... called again for finger scanning..then last stop is the interview by the consul... He's really kind and not to mention "good-looking" =) He just asked me 2 questions The job of my fiance' and how did we met...I answer his questions with full confidence.... then a moment of silence...He browsed on our photo's... documents... ( I really wanted to faint while he's looking on the papers) then He nod... and said "OK ma'am You're Fantastic, U're visa is now approved..." I don't really know how to react hearing that "magic word" my smile never gets out of my face... :D ...I just said "Thank You sir and God bless you... " and He smiled.... Whew.... I step out of the cabin..still smiling.... i don't care about the people who can see me... I'm happy I get the PINK...!!! Thank YOU guys for all ur advice and prayers.... I'm ready on the next journey... wishing all who are still waiting will also get pink :innocent: ....=)

After you visa has been approved, can you request to pick up your visa/passport instead of via air21? If yes, how many days can be picked up? Question this 'cause I am planning to give my fiancee a mini vacation going to Hongkong 4-5 days after the actual interview.

But .... Congratulations!!! :yes:

Hey Congratulations Gzel!!! :thumbs:

Crissbess: yes you can request to pick up the Visa at the embassy, most times you can get it 2 days after your interview, but it depends on if your interview is not on a Thr/Fri....then you have to wait out the weekend...ideally you could interview on Mon/Tue and be flying out of PI with your Visa

Thanks for your quick response. Actually, our interview is on a Monday, and planning to go to Hongkong over the weekend, and flying from there to the US. I hope that will work.

THanks again.. !!

Yeah that’s the norm, but you should receive it on a average of 3-4 days, but can take longer.
