First of all I thank God and praise Him for being with me all the way through this visa process and in any situation always. Im sure you all are experiencing the same from His grace. I just had my interview last friday May 23rd. I came there around 7am and i thought I was already late for the 7.30 am appointment but I guess not coz eventually my process was finished along with those who came at 6am. However it was a long day of waiting. The guards were telling us it was over-crowded inside so we have to wait outside until 9.30, phew!

Anyways, there was no much of strict checking of things as regards to bringing of foods or liquids inside the premises. They didnt ask me anymore to take a sip out of the water bottle or anything.They were just more concerned of the electronic things. So passed 11 was called for pre-screening and so it was like this:

Questions being asked: Name of petitioner, his first and last visit, where and how we met, what did i do abroad ( germany & belgium), what's my fiance's work... and then asked me to give the ff docus: NBI, BC,CENOMAR,POL.Clearance, Affidavit of support and pictures.That's all..

And then waited for the interview with the CO:

CO asked me almost the same thing as the pre-screener did. She was friendly and nice, she greeted me the moment I get inside the room,

smiles always while asking me questions, but still that never calmed my nervousness down :blink: She did a lil chat with me and asked me if I can speak German and I said yes, "she said thats great, it's a beautiful language!" and i said "yes it is"... She browsed thru our paperworks as well as thru our pictures of me and my fiance together and she said " oh he's cute!" and i was just like smiling and realized to say thank you to that comment a minute later , due to the nervousness again! And then she said "did you apy the delbros alerady?" and i sais yes! CO then said everything looks fine and that our papers are fine, and I felt so good as i heard it until she said "we just have to wait for the verification from the NSO just to make sure it's not fake and that you're not married 10 times!" well she was trying to be humorous with that but as soon as I heard the verification thing I knew it there's a chance for white slip. I said thank you and CO said your welcome, take care! So i went out and there I got white slip from the window nr 38 and asked to pay 250 for visa delivery...

So now Im just welcoming myself to the club of the "white slips" waiting for the doc verification... Anyhow, Im still thankful that it's turned out well all in all! And to God thank you so much for His unending loving kindness!!! To all who are still waiting God bless you and good luck! Thank you to all fellow VJyers who have helped me and my fiance through this process, we wouldnt know better if we havent seen this site!!!

Ok lang yang, white slip na mag-aantay, at least alam mo bakit ka nag-aantay... sa akin, my verification result was with them during interview and I was only given the pink slip minus the white one YET I am still waiting for visa one week after interview while one of those who had interview same day as me have already recieved their visa (she is on K1 also and also have 2kids like me) and will be flying out of the country this friday na.. while another one is has their visa on its way na... sakin, the delbros site still says "in process at the embassy"... well, that is life.... we just have to play the endless waiting game here. Sorry for the rant...

Congrats again, estudyante na sad ka soon.... btw, the one who just received visa, kanang ako gimention above.. she said validity daw sa iyang visa kay May 22-Nov. 22 (interview date namo was may 21)... i immediately thought about you... makapaso pa jud diay ka. :thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:
