It is done! The wait is over and coming to take her away! (Hee Hee Ha Ha Ho Ho!) Life has been a whirlwind recently so time to post and bask in the glory of our success . . . After so many trials and tribulations, it is finally done. I arrived in Manila November 1st so we'd have time to organize ( no need, Rassel had it all done ), to role play and . . . well . . . umm . . . get 're-aquainted' with my wife who I've not seen in-person for nearly a year. We showed up early @ the American Embassy at about 5:15AM for the 6:15AM appointment. I'm not sure who was more nervous - her or I!. A Filipina security lady claimed that I could not attend my wife's hearing while we were going through the security scan. I just shook my head 'yes' and smiled at her. We sat in line and waited, stressed and waited . . . she upset at the apparent random ordering of called numbers. When our turn was up for her to get sworn in and 'Biometricized' (finger print scan) we both went up there . . . .Then more waiting . . . Then the Phlippines interview . . . . more waiting . . . finally the American Interview . . . 'Approved!!!!' filled out the form for the 2Go delivery and went our merry way . . . We had our paperwork together, and every piece of documentation you could imagine - and then some! I left on the 7th . . . and her visa arrived in SM iloilo city on the 9th!!

I'm glad this is over with! I'll post more detail info as I get time . . . thanks again VJ'ers! I appreciate the help that everyone has offered . . it has made a BIG difference.

Warm Regards,

Mark and Rassel!
