Thanks everyone.

I'll be sure to get extra copy of vaccinations.

She submitted the police report and medical exam on Friday. They took them and also took her passport. They returned some pictures, timeline and other stuff. They kept two or three photos out of many photos that I submitted when I originally filed back in June 2010.

She paid for the EMS service and they told her that the VISA will be deliver in two weeks. Instead of a typical "pink" paper like most people received. She received a white paper stated that "...your VISA application was approved...do not make travel arrangement until you receive your visa..."

I'm very happy! It has been exactly 11 months since her interview!!!

Very happy news. Many congrats and God bless.kicking.gif

I bought the ticket in the US via Asian travel agents (http://uttours.com/). I usually fly with EVA and going from Seattle is $1400 round trip leaving on May 31st. They told me that I can get it around $1200 if I fly before May 20th. After May 20th, it's Summer price. My friend is also going back but in June and his ticket is $1700. One way for my fiancee is 920 on EVA website, but I have to wait 2 more weeks for the travel agent to give me an on sale price because we are coming back 3rd week of June. Too early for it to go on sale, but we already reserved my fiancee a spot and I don't know how they did that.

Congrats on the visa. I knew you could do it. Anyways it may be too late now but if u want to save money, you can let ur fiance fly alone to the US. Thu booked her airplane ticket with IOM and she paid like 900... but that was last month. Maybe prices are higher now because summer is almost here. Anyways, IOM is good because they provide travel assistance at every connecting flight and also at immigration checkpoints. Anyways good luck.
