GAH!!!! SO excited for you.  Sending you all my love xxx

Thanks so much Lucy!  I can’t believe today is finally here!  After everything we’ve all been through, it really is surreal to have my love coming here to stay.  I don’t even think I’ve really fully processed that yet.  It will be so nice to just settle down and get into our own little routine after this, even the dishwashing part you mentioned.  :wub:  Lol

I would like to offer you additional help at no charge. You need to make yourself familiar with this website http://www.visaconnection-philippines.com/k-1-visa-application.html that will walk you through everything you need to do to process your visa once you have your case number from NVC for the PHLIPPINES. The website was created by a Philippine VJ member (Hank) and it has helped hundreds if not thousands to get their visa with little or no hiccups. It's free to use.

 

Also, the ppl here in this thread are all coming from different Embassy's and their time lines and process is going to be different from yours. So asking about SLEC to someone processing through Germany will be no help to you. So, there is a sub-forum where most of the Filipino's go for help if the guide creates some uncertainty.

 

Found here http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/129-philippines/ A lost of are over there helping so stop in and get familiar with the thread.

Thanks for the great information.  I really appreciate it a lot.

Good morning :D

So what happens in a situation such as mines? I received an email from NVCResearch that they do not have record of receiving my petition 😣😔🤤 I am so frustrated with this ordeal.

 

They are going to work with USCIS to locate your record. If they can find it then the process continues where it was left off. Otherwise if they can't find it then chances are they will ask for you to submit another copy. I think they will find it. I doubt they permanently lose applications but they get missed placed on someone's desk. Stay strong. This will soon pass and you will be working on preparation for the interview.
