Manila Embassy Interview/Visa Status

[jerrylee 0]

Hello guys! I just uploaded some of our wedding photos: http://www.friendster.com/davidandmae. They're not very good shots but these were the only nice ones from all our wedding photos. We didn't have a professional/official photographer and even our wedding videos got screwed up. The "cameraman" - David's brother, didn't press the record button so the entire tape was blank, nada, zero, wala. Oh well, what matter most is we are now officially married. Anyway, we got some pictures taken by our guests so we'll start bugging them and collect what they got.

P.S.

I spent $40 to have a long, black straight hair in the Philippines and paid another $40 to have curled here. And the manicure and pedicure? Boy, it was soooooooooooo expensive. We can have it done for 60.00 pesos with free foot massage at home.

:dance: Congratulations!!! :dance:

Hello, All

We were finally approved today after 8 months of paperwork, waiting, stress, and nervousness. She arrive at 6 am and she was done at 9:30. The Interview was very systematic and quick, and they only asked questions from the DS-156 and some basic questions about us like, our names, our ages, our occupations, and how and when did we meet. It was suprisingly easy. I know i haven't been very vocal in this thread, but all of you have been such a blessing to us in this entire process, just being able to visit this thread made us feel like we were not going thru this process alone. Your words of wisdom was just what we needed to get thru silence of "no updates" which could drive you crazy. I speak for myself and my beautiful future Bride, when I say

THANKYOU !

Alphonso & Beth

:dance: Congratulations!!! :dance:

Well except for the reply notifications I get in my email, I don't get to read much on on VJ recently. Fely keeps me busy helping with her garden and the constant house cleaning and rearranging just about every piece of furniture in the house. We cleaned out the cat's bathroom today (which they no longer inhabit). I never thought that room would be useable by humans again.

A week ago Friday (July 27th) we received a surprise in the mail -- Fely's SSN card. It took only 11 days from her POE date. She'll start looking for a job next week. Ah one of the advantages of entering the US with the CR-1 visa.

Congratulations to Princess and Eddie&Mary on the approvals, and to the recently married and other good news. And good luck for the upcoming interviews.

I'll be back again when I can get the opportunity.
