We started this K-1 Journey on April 19th and just found out a few hours ago that my fiance got approved for her Visa at the US Embassy in Manila. Just be patient and you will also achieve your goals with this crazy process. She will be here in November after tying up some loose ends.. Thanks again to everyone for the support. Check out my timeline if you want to see how things progressed from April up to now..
