think i sent in far to much info but it worked then helped her with her forms

I had been there twice to meet her once last may then again in october

Yesterday she had her visa approved

Cost me time and about a thousand dollars and some months of waiting nothing much happens at first. Then medical two trips to manila She passed her interview no problems now we wait for her to have visa delivered
