Congratulations to those who have passed the interview!!!

My fiancee had her interview on 1 Dec but received the "white" because her police clearance from Japan was not ready yet. She received the call this morning that it is now ready and she is going to pick it up tomorrow and immediately turn it in to the USEM. We are so excited. I just hope that she gets her visa before Christmas. That is the only present I want this year!!!

Again, congrats to all who received the "pink". Good luck to everyone yet to interview or those waiting with the "white". I know how bad the waiting is, but one day very very soon we will be together.

also had dec 1 interview too but was already in white slip because they did not find my passport and medical reports that day! i emailed them last thursday and got response friday that they received medical reports and is now on review...and emailed them again yesterday and got response that is still on review..this process taking so long...and it's really not my fault that i dont have my medical reports that day because i am done with my medical oct 22! hoping i will receive my visa very soon..

hi philmae, still haven't receive your visa? anyway, on my part, i just tracked my visa a while ago via air21 website and it indicate there that the shipment left the AIR21 Gateway at CARGOHAUS... maybe i will receive it by tomorrow... thank god... i'm so excited... hope you will receive yours too as soon as possible...

hi lor,

got update yesterday and they said review not completed yet...and it's only the medical reports and passport that was lacking and taking so long

hows your visa lor?

I'm still waiting for our daughter's CRBA and US Passport delivery, I'll be submitting it back to the embassy (for my 221g) and hopefully I'll have my visa by around January next year. Not really in a hurry since me and my husband really planned for a February trip, afterall I wanted to spend the holidays here. :)

Have a safe trip mae, don't forget the pics when you get there :)

I'm planning to leave in February. My husband is coming on 22nd for Christmas and will leave on January 10th. I have many things to do/ settle pa so I can't leave right away but that's okay, I'm not really in a hurry anyway. Goodluck.
