Anne received he CR-1 visa in the mail on Tuesday morning! One week exactly from her interview, which I'm very pleased with since she lives all the way down in Tacloban City. So after 297 days of being apart from each other we will finally reunite!! She's flying to Manila on Friday morning to get her sticker from the CFO and then her flight leaves Manila at 8:10 PM, she flies from Manila to Beijing, has a 7 hour layover, then flies from Beijing to Chicago, has a four hour layover then flies from Chicago to Atlanta and will arrive in Atlanta at 1:25 PM Saturday afternoon!!! I'm sooo excited!! So will she go through customs in Chicago?? and if she does will a four hour layover be enough time for her to get through customs and make it on her connecting flight? God I hope so

Best Wishes for a long Happy life together :)

Thanks Leatherneck from one serviceman to another and also mounir412! Also beejay thank you sooo much for your knowledge! Ya I called American Airlines and they said the same thing you told me, her luggage will transferred for her all the way to Chicago and then after she goes through immigration in Chicago they said she will need to collect her baggage and then someone will be there to collect it again to put it on her next flight and then she takes the tram to terminal 3 and go through security again. Also I will tell her to try and get all 3 boarding passes in Manila, that would make things a lot easier. Thanks again everybody! :D:thumbs:

You bet bahaynamin!

It's probably a little late now, but that's a great suggestion by bogdog. If you have the spare cash, meeting her in ORD then flying home with together would make her day.

I even learned from beejay's post, that's very helpful knowledge.

"The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!" - Eleanor Roosevelt, First Lady of the United States, 1945.
