Manila Embassy Interview/Visa Status

[David-and-Mae 15]

Please review Section 4.7 of the Manila Embassy K1 Visa Guide concerning document verification and PM me any suggestions. By the by, I found out that even lawyers are reviewing our Manila Embassy K1 Visa Guide to gain insight into the process. Go figure!!!

And I bet the question as to "why we're not getting too many clients nowadays?" has been answered.

and the moral of the story is a good source of info is from those what have been there and done it, maybe not a lawyer who might have his head up his... ooops sorry this isn't off topic.

maybe those who feel the need to use a lawyer should print out the guide and give to their lawyer in case they are not familar with the process in Manila.

My husband (then fiance) almost used the visa assistance service of Cherry Blossoms (since that's where we met). I told him NO, I'll take care of everything. He was surprised and could not believe it. So I told him that in my heart, I was so sure that we will end up together so I have decided to look for informative websites where I could get infos about visa matters even when he hasn't proposed to me yet. I was very presumptiuous at that time because I know that that day we met, we're destined to be together. I used to hang around at Asawa.org but somehow, that website got closed down. And then I found this website.

Without VJ and all the helps from my Manila Thread Family, we will never be this successful in our journey.

Heeelllooooo???? Seems this thread has gone silent here.

Well Mir's daughter, Krrystal, is at the Embassy for her interview this morning. Her appointment was for 7:00AM. We are both sitting here nervous and anxious to hear some news from Krrystal's Lola about the results. With Mirasol already being here, I would think the only problems might be technicalities regarding documents, which can be fixed with time. It's just so nerve wrecking...especially after all the hassles at the medical last week. The medical came out okay in the end, but so many delays.

Hope everyone is doing well in your place. Take care and God bless you and your families.

Good luck, Scott and Mir! Hope your daughter had a successful interview! By the way, when it's time for her to join you, are you going to pick her up? Just curios...

--Mae

P.S. This thread used to be the most popular and busy thread of all until they gave us our own regional forum. While it's nice to have our own space here in VJ, I still love our close-tie small family... the original Manila Thread... Sigh... I even don't see some of the active regulars anymore... Gone were the old days...

Thank you for the well wishes and your reply. In answer to your question...at least Mir will go home to get Krrystal. Plane fares are really high right now for July. We plan to go pick her up then in time for school starting here in August. Its about $1400+ per ticket each for Mir and I to go round trip to Davao and back and another $800-1000 for Krrystal's one-way ticket here. It adds up quickly. If fares come down a little then we might both go, but if they stay where they are at now, then probably just Mir will go. Krrystal will only be 8 years old then, so we would not even consider her flying an international trip alone....even if it was possible, which I am not even sure they would allow it that young.

I agree too....lots of changing faces here. I think the trend has been to start a thread by month for those that are having filings and interviews and such. I don't post here as much as I did before too....mostly because of time. I have been hanging out in VJ lately because of questions I have had about the K-2 process. Luckily, the people here have been so helpful as always.

Ingat ka!

It's now 7:36am Manila time. hopefully you'll be receiving some good news soon.

We are talking to Mir's mother on the phone now and everything seems okay. The interview is complete. According to Mir's mother....the Consul told her the "petition" is approved. I said, "Petition?" She said, "Yes...the petition is approved." Mir told her the petition was approved long ago, but we hope the Visa is now approved." She replied again, "Yes...the petition is approved."

She was given a slip and told to go pay Delbros, so I guess that's a good sign. She did not ask if the document verification was complete, so we are not sure if the visa will come right away or be delayed like others have been for the document verification. We're just happy to know she is approved and will get her visa.

Thanks again for the well wishes.
