hello there guys, just want to let ya know we got the visa, i do apologize for the many questions we had all the time,but thanks alot for being patient and answering all.just so you guys know, she was asked for the ds-156,ds-156k, ds-157,no ds-160.also her interview was about five minutes, she was asked many questions about me and my past,so badboys with past record donf feel discourage,i was in prison for 5 years in state and also done fed time,all drug charges,US cousul really wanted to know if she really knew me and my past,just want to thank all of ya with ya for your great support.

notation

I dont recomend ya guys shipping paperwork with DHL, i was told my fiancee would get documents one day and she actually got them a week later,night before the interview.

Also, i booked my girl at the bocobo for a whole week,she was flying in from Dipolog,first day she arrive in manila,at 1pm she when to medical,got first day done and was told to comeback next day at 1:30pm for results,so for the next 6days she relaxed and waited for interview day.we avoided the two trip to manila,whish would of been on trip for medical and one for interview,plus hotel and much more payments.

CFo gave her a lil hassle about being 21 and not bringing her parental consent letter, so if you under 23yrs,it is not required but cfo may still request parental consent letter.good luck to ya

i still have most of my 18dlls pin,so if ya guys need it PM

That CFO letter bit us in the ### too. All you others out there.....get it even if it is not required. Simple statement about giving advice/consent and signed by her parents. Have it notorized and all set.

Best wishes

I'm 23 so I brought my parental advise letter with me but they never asked for it. I know someone my age who was asked for a notarized parental consent letter. Silly how the requirements vary from person to person. Such institutions should have a solid list of requirements that applies to everyone and not the erratic "I need this, I need that, maybe this too for you."

Congratulations, Puppy eyes! good.gif
