I am the Pet-itoner :) I do all the work here while she is there asking for status. Life is just too cute :yes:

About us:

Me:

Gender = m

nationality = non penoy

Fiancee:

Gender = f

nationality = penoy

Not fair, she did some work. She obtained and signed the documents she was responsible for. :bonk: (she just corrected me...) and also she gave me the order when to do the filing :yes:

It is so encouraging to read everyone's story! I am the petitioner and doing most of the work, but often times we will both work on it together over web cam and just talk while we're working on it.

Finally mailed the first part off this week! The journey is just starting. :)

Best of luck everyone!

Just out of curiosity ...i was wondering who all you VJers are ? Are you the beneficiary or the petitioner ?

In my case i'm the beneficiary... my husband doesn't have the patience or the time to deal with all the paperwork that this visa journey involves...so i took it up on myself to gather, inquire and find out what needed to be done to bring this journey to a good end ?

So who are you guys, who did all the legg work...who is on here ?
