I am a little worried because with me just starting a new, good, full time job, I'm not going to be able to take any vacation time to go to the Philippines to be with my wife. I've been a student for the past three years, and have just finished. I've been working for a month now, and I am now making over the guidelines for the poverty level.

Will it help if I have a letter for the interviewer explaining my position? My wife and I talk everyday online, and we talk on the phone at lease 2 to 3 times a week. I hope it does not keep us apart. With everything her and I have been through, we don't want to be apart any longer than is necessary.

From everything I've read here, it shouldn't be a problem as long as you can prove a bonified marriage/relationship and have evidence to show it. While it does HELP to be there for her interview, it is not required and a lot of visas have been approved without the significant other present. A letter explaining your situation wouldn't hurt to send with her to the interview but I'm sure as long as she can explain it to the CO it should be fine. :thumbs:

Anybody feel free to correct me if I am wrong?

Yeah that's a good question, I think I will be in the same problem, my hubby won't be able to come here whenever we get the interview (we are still at USCIS stage) due to work, but I was also wondering if its BETTER than he is with me at the interview or if it doesn't really matter?? Because I have read in some other threads that in some embassies they DON'T allow the spouse to come in for the interview, only the beneficiary is allowed to enter.

THANK YOU
