Hi. During my visa interview at the US Embassy in Manila, the consul who did the interview looks like Princess Diana and she was wearing a white suit that day. Must be my angel and yours too. I think the one who interviewed you and the one who did mine is one and the same. :thumbs: She was all smiles all throughout the interview and it took only 5 minutes. She was done with her questions in five minutes. Yes, she was very nice. Congratulations and goodluck to you and your family. Marie

http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-zvMHC3A8erQ...1visaexperience

Finally the long wait for our inteview has come: SEPT. 10, 2008 @ 6:30am. I have 6 kilos worth of solid evidence w/me today AND THEN, it was ironic because they only asked our pictures and remittances! :lol: U can just imagined how heavy carrying 6 kilos all the time plus w/ a 5 yr-old makulit na bata pa. Anyways, though many have had a very different interviewing experience than me, it is quite true that we had a very nice pre-screener named: MAE window 18, and she was very accommodating and considerate. My consul however was a young american woman in her 30's or early 40's! behind window 27, and she indeed looked like Princess DIANA! She was very soft spoken and when she looked at our pics taken from different tourist spots here in phils. she said: WOW! He's a very handsome guy... (she said so with a very wide smile.) I said: "Thank You maa'm" LOL! She browsed everything one by one, then she looked at our photo album on our wedding and stated more than twice; oh dear, he is handsome, and the 3rd time: He is handsome smiling looking on our wed pics (nagka-interes yata sa asawa ko, is it because my husband is a latino? w/ evenly tanned skin and nice body built?) me and my child looked at each other and smiled everytime we heard her comments. I felt relieved though 'coz my prayers has been answered to have a good and nice consul and not the mean/evil one. Our interview only lasted for about only 5 minutes, the ff:

Raised your right hand BLAH, BLAH, BLAH!

Who is your name: RSAG

Petitioner: my husband, ORG

When did u meet: July 03, 2006

When did he visited u: Aug. 31 to Oct. 01, 2007

When did u get married: September 17, 2007

What u like most about ur husband personally: (seems she is very interested with hubby! hahahaha): I go he is a very loving, understanding & caring person. He loves my entire family spcly my child, he likes our culture and he gladly adapt it, a good provider and God fearing and loves to eat RICE coz of ME. Consul said: "even if he is a U.S. Citizen? He must dearly loves you so much.

Do u know the personal background of your husband: He was a former Head Correctional Officer, Florida Estate Prison; a former Sergeant E5 in the Army w/highly confidential clearance, a Licensed Realtor and currently working as a Senior Sales Manager Timeshares Company.

How much he sends you monthly support? $xxxx

Where is the Father of the child? Passed away In what year? 2004 Do u have a Death Certificate?

She gave me a Pink and a White Slip and the white slip not because of my DV but for doc x1 verification regarding the death certificate of my child's father and I was sure glad I was able to reproduce the NSO death certificate and also showed it to the Consul when she asked for it, otherwise I would of had to reproduce additional documents. Though, it shouldn't be that way coz I never marry my child's father di ba? but still she wants to authenticate the validity of such docs. Im positive & confident we will get our visa sooner or later USEM kept our passports and asked to pay delbros for visa delivery.

I would like to take this opportunity to express my deep gratitude to those V.J.'s who prayed for us and wished us good luck during the entire process leading to this DAY! our BIG DAY!. Thank to everyone of you that left me offline messages and even called me to ask how the interview went!, Also thanks so much to those of u whom never tire of answering my never ending questions :lol: NAMELY: boyceedith & dear; 0opink0o (Dian, na mas excited pa yata sakin na mainterview ako), hannyperez (ang friend kong lukaret sa vj); prettynpink (pim na maganda & very cool person); Shape & gurl (my bestfriends sa VJ); jegu ryu (pretty & sexy Ann); Pushbrk (help me alot when Im still a newbie); marieford_20 (kaya mo yan sis); marjorie; cassanova21 (thanks for ur help), kennethea (thanks for always being a friend to me); mamalou (noa2 is coming); amorsiempre (ur cool & kind); mhal2008 (thanks for the word of wisdom & moral support); MJ3lasvegas (Jov, i have a great time reading ur pm's); Nimfa & Rodge (I enjoyed my time w/u guys); lostgurl18 (thanks for the tips/infos); MARIA (salamat sa tawa at kasiyahan); shaman_goddess/iloveyou16; dbears (thanks sa concern) & OFCOURSE TO MY EVER LOVING, KIND AND SUPPORTIVE HUSBAND & NIKKI. Sa mga hindi ko nababanggit pasensya na po pag di ko nailagay, basta MARAMING MARAMING SALAMAT SA INYO LAHAT SA VJ KAPAMILYA AT KAPUSO.

Hokey Smoke!

Rocky: "Baby, are they still mad at us on VJ?"

Bullwinkle: "No, they are just confused."
