So we're flying out to HCMC from Da Nang this Sunday (April 17th). We have a biometrics scheduled on April 19th, and our interview date is about a week later on April 28th. I estimate that we'll probably be there a minimum of two weeks including a week to wait and pick up the visa. Linh's Aunt has a place she can let us stay at for the duration. Is anyone else going to be there around this time?

We've been busy putting everything together, sorting all our pictures, receipts, and paperwork we've been gathering and saving for the past 2 years. It's been a lot of work and a long road, but I think we're as ready as we can be.

Wish us luck! :dancing:

Is it biometrics, or a medical exam?
