I have her email address. One Dina is safely here, I'm gonna shred her
-
No. CFO lady asked for my FBI clearance and a CENOMAR ON ME. Dina emailed those in yesterday.
-
When is the request made to view it and by whom?
-
Yes she did
-
She needs to go back to the office again?
-
With apprehensive optimism, we feel Dina's CFO Certificate is in the works. How does the certificate evolve into a sticker??
-
I like the layout of that.
-
PAL seems to be the only direct to Honolulu. And price is almost double flights that stop in Seoul or Tokyo first. Other than the greed component. I don't understand the economics of aerospace.
-
I'm looking at both Kayak and the PAL website. Are there useful sites I am unaware of? Dina does CFO in 2.5 hours. She wants to take a week or two to recover from the chaos of the last month, then she'll be ready to hop the big bird.
-
Saipan specifically.. Since the chain is a US territory, I'm thinking it would be ok. We're looking for somewhere exotic to go to and still stay in the US. American Samoa is another possibility. Guam is out. Too military.
-
Email on phone. Visa in hand.
-
Does email always arrive? And if so how long after ISSUED does it take?
-
Dina has been told that not only does she have to wait for email - she has to show email at VAC in order to pick up. Truth or conspiracy theory?
-
Now Issued
-
So "Issued" doesn't mean it's ready for pick-up? She needs to wait on email??
-
Fast workers.. Now Approved
-
Yeah you're right 6-10.. The progression is Received to Approved to Issued?? And once Issued, Dina can pay VAC a friendly visit??
-
Literally in the last hour, the update date changed from 6-4 to 6-14
-
Should we be concerned the interview was a week ago today and we're still in this state?
-
I want to verify what I think that means (interviewer said Dina qualified for visa). As I understand, it means VAC received the case and visa is awaiting production. Is this correct? The interview was a week ago today.
-
Are there any documented sources (not hearsay) that state how long VAC will hold a visa for pickup??
-
It is
-
Dina and I were rewarded for our persistence today. She chose to pick up at VAC. She was told 1-2 weeks. That seemed like a long time compared to what I have read in the past. Does anybody have recent experience with this? She's gonna crash tomorrow. The next day she needs to decide if to leave the Embassy/VAC area or not. She has a sister 10 bus hours away she can visit if it's really gonna be a more than week. If only a few days, then she stays where she is and rests/shops/sightsees.
-
Also, will she be required to attend both?
-
Dina has her interview tomorrow. She decided to stay in Manila to pick up visa and do CFO before returning to Leyte. I assume it's risky to schedule CFO before having visa in hand. That said, once having the visa, how quickly can she expect to score an open slot?
