Thanks, guys! I wish you all the best.

BTW, I was trying to listen ( you can actually hear it if you seriously pay attention to it)to other interviews for fiance/fiancee/spousal visa ( cuz ours is IR2), and they were routinely asking the same questions. How did you meet, when was the last time he/she visited, how do you communicate, show me your pictures together, what does he do for a living, what do you intend to do when you get to the US..Basically everyone made it in Manila, except for one who was requested to submit another document. Maybe they should just record their questions, as it's all the same. LOL. But that's good for us.

Good luck, guys!!

And Lidia, we are among the few left of the TSC blackhole batch. Go get it, gurl!!

congrats! and thank you for the insight :thumbs:

Sorry for the late post, was crazy busy getting tickets for the wife and baby to get here on Friday.

Yes approved and received visa the same day from embassy.

Wife got there at 8am and did not get out until past 3pm. Long day for her since my two year old daughter can't sit still for more than 10 mins.

Big shout out to Saylin for her free advise. And thank you to the countless others for their moral support and advise.

Good luck to everyone else.

Wife just got out and was approved...but they are waiting on the HK police certificate before they release the Visa...we were expecting that. I want to call this one approved, but I guess technically we are in AR. We are both still very happy :dance::dance::dance:
