Sorry to hear this. A friend of mine thought his fiance was going to be here in December, but then her TB test came out positive as well. So they have to wait for six months now as well. Hopefully everything goes quickly and you two can be together again.

Hi everyone,

Well we got the dreaded news that Michelle's culture came back positive. Even though she does not have active TB, they discovered bacteria in her culture (probably contracted/inhaled it during OJT from nursing school). In any case, she has already started the 6-month meds treatment...every day at St. Lukes, Manila. So sad that we need to wait another 6 months to start our lives together but happy that she will be completely bacteria free!

My question for the VJ family is:

What do we need to do to extend the NOA 2 approval which expires next month, well before she completes the treatment? Does St. Lukes communicate to the Embassy, or is it up to us to apply for an extension.

Thanks again,

Michelle and Jeff

I'm so sorry to hear about this Michelle and Jeff :( I'm just so glad that you two are so positive! Keep it going! Time is so fast, before you know it, you're next to each others arms as hubby and wifey! Good luck and God bless!!! :)

Well...you need to contact the embassy about your intention to pause the process say 6 months but after one year...you will receive a letter from the embassy about the case...which is you have to start all over again. I have a friend who got such letter after abandonment of his approval and the his home embassy notify him after a year concerning the expiration of his immigration benefit and that he need to re-apply again. So, with what i mention you now know the direction to go. Take care.
