11 days and my fiance and I will be heading to the Consulate in Ho Chi Minh City! We are preparing and praying for the PINK! I am leaving for the interview on Sunday in the US. I've got 7 days to prepare her for the interview. I am hoping for the best. This will be my 3rd trip to Viet nam in 8 months. I met her from introduction from her aunt here in the states as I have known her for about twelve years now. My Father who is a decorated Viet nam War Veteran accompanied me to Viet nam to meet her and attended the engagement ceremony along with her Mother and Father. I then returned to Viet nam on July 22, 2007 and stayed with her until Sept. 11, 2007. During that time I was teaching her English as I am a certified TEFL teacher. I also spent alot of time with her extended family while I was there. Also during that time I was there we found out that we are expecting and the baby is due in May of 2008!! We all hope that everything works out for the best. I prepared all of her paperwork myself and submitted everything they asked for and I have a paper trail for everything they might throw at her at the interview. I've heard stories about this Consulate both good and bad and if there are any troubles then perhaps I can rectify them while I am there. Our case is very clear, neither one of us has ever been married before, neither one of us have any children yet, and neither of us has ever been in any legal trouble, and my income is more than enough to support her and our new child. Both sides parents attended the engagement ceremony. I want everyone to know here on this website that I could not have known as much about this whole process without you all! I am not afraid and not worried about this, what happens happens and I will be with her every step of the way and I will keep everyone posted when she completes the interview and keep us in your hearts and your prayers and we will do the same! Thank you everyone and we will do our best on November 26!!!
