Another odd thing I am finding is that ALWAYS - the first attempt at logging in fails. EVERY time. Edge or Chrome - same behavior. Second attempt always gets me in. Anybody else experiencing this?

Mahalo all.. On to the next yet undiscovered point of confusion.

That's what's so confusing. If we didn't pay, would we not even have access to that site?

We already paid $265. I was under the impression that other than the medical, we were paid up

I can't pinpoint it, but my gut tells me something ain't right in how we're trying to schedule. Please tell us if we're on the right track or not. This is what we do.. We login and we land here. The fact that "Fee Payment" is blank is messing with my head. I don't get why that box is even there. Is it intended to be a payment status? If so, why is it empty? If we didn't pay, would we not be able to login? We click "Schedule IV appointment, and we're taken here. We click the drop down and only see "Manila OFC". Selecting this gives us the infamous "No Slots Available". Are we going about this correctly? Mahalo, Bill and Dina

Dina paid the $225 and got a confirmation code in an email. I assume that she keyed it in properly to get to that point in the website. I was just troubled by the screenshot I provided. I would have thought under "Fee Payment" it would have said something like "Paid in full". But when we go into "Schedule IV Appointment", we see "No Slots Available". So can I assume all is good?

My question was 'which form should I use' not 'do i really have to fill out anything'

Mahalo Jim. I didn't email you directly as I did not want to be perceived as a major pain in the ### (I am ok being modest pain in the ### however).

I-134 or I-864? I see both mentioned seeming interchangeably.

Please define "outside".

20 years is a long time. You wouldn't recognize the airport. Sadly you wouldn't recognize Hawai`i period.

We decided on Honolulu. After thinking about it, Guam was a huge gamble. She would arrive in HNL at 10:20am. Flights to Maui are every 30 minutes till 9pm. And Hawaiian is very accommodating about moving you to an earlier/later flight than what was booked.

Nice thought but not practical. I would have no way to get into international terminal without a ticket. The best I could do is meet her at the gate she would be leaving from. And by then, she's past 99.99999999999% of the difficulties. She got 'em. Also I think me getting a ticket only to turn around and come home would raise suspicions.

She agreed with me on Guam. But now what I am reading about having to get bags changes everything. My gut says getting bags, going thru immigration, rechecking bags and getting to gate in 2.5 hrs is way too risky. There is only one Guam/Honolulu flight a day. You miss it, you're screwed. So would this be the sequence of events using Honolulu as the POE? - 1. Hop on PAL and fly fly fly. 2. Grab bags in Honolulu. 3. Go thru C&I. 4. Go to inter-island terminal. 5. Either fly out or try to get earlier/later flight as necessary. bc
