Fiance completed the CFO today. Apparently its a 3 hour seminar. I can only imagine what they have to say in there. She already completed her medical yesterday, received her immunizations and all her documentation but had to go back to St Lukes for K2 immunizations and a TB test reading. The amount of time it takes to go through a simple examination is crazy. She didn't get home until 9pm and left about 5am to go there. Our loved ones go through quite a bit of hell. It's all about hurry up and wait. But our loved ones in the PI (Philippines) take all of it in stride because its always about the waiting. Even harder on my sweet K2 and she has been a trooper. Next is the interview..... Monday August 22, 2016 is the final obstacle to get here.

It only took 8 days for you to received the visa. I just want to know coz I've heard that people got it 2 weeks and all that. We don't want to book a ticket yet until the visa is on hand, We don't want any surprises. Tickets now are very expensive. Ughh!

Good for you though you booked the ticket already. Finally she's coming! I can't wait to see my Fiance though. How I wish I can travel now. :cry: missed him a lot.

Good luck!

Yesterday I received the letter from the NVC with our case number and instructions to wait to be contacted by the embassy and that it could take several weeks for the embassy to send anything...

Meanwhile we got our case number weeks ago by calling and since then have booked and attended the medical, filled out all forms, paid all fees, and are getting ready for his interview on Tuesday... SO happy I found visa journey and was able to avoid all that unnecessary waiting! Planning to have him here in a little over 2 weeks now :)

It came to the US! But I believe that the London embassy will send a letter as well to the UK citizen- he has not received that yet though.
