As you all might have read in my fiancé's old post, I was given a 221g slip (blue form) on July 1, 2010. I hurried back to the Embassy on the soonest day possible which was July 6, 2010 and submitted the lacking document. (Jordan's pay checks) I called the U.S. Embassy last week and I was told that my case was still under Administrative Review. I decided to call again today since I just got home and I was hoping for good news to start my weekend with. I called the U.S Embassy and talked to an agent named Bella. She broke the news to me and said that my visa was approved on July 13, 2010. I should expect my visa in the mail within 7-10 days.

I truly believe that there is a rainbow after the storm. This happens to be the most luminescent rainbow that has entered my life.

To those who got blue slips like I did, please don't lose hope. I know how disappointment that comes with receiving a blue one when you aim for a pink. It's a bitter pill to swallow but it can be remedied by submitting the appropriate documents.

To follow up on your case, call the Embassy at 3012000 and do it at least once a week. This is a local number if you need more information regarding this matter, you can email the Embassy at ConsManilaNIV@state.gov

Thank you so much Tin, Sherryl,Shiela and to the other lovely ladies I've met on this site. Also, heaps of thanks to Tahoma, Happy, Jason, Joy, Rox and baby Tyree! tongue.gif

I ended the call by telling the lady that she just made my day and I incessantly thanked her. I ran to my mom's room, jumped on the bed and gave her a big bear hug! She asked me why I was crying hysterically so I told her that I finally got approved. The tears were brimming in her eyes when she asked me when I intended to leave. I looked at her with a quick retort, "I don't wanna leave yet." We just started laughing and then I called Jordan.

I know that I'm rambling so I'll end it here. Thank you for being part of our journey. I'm on an emotional high so excuse me as I hug everyone in my house.

THANK YOU EVERYONE! good.gifcrying.gifkicking.gif

My aunt is leaving on the 28th and she recommended that I get PAL flight 102 or 103. (I forgot) but I have to further discuss this matter with my mom and Jordan. My mom wants to go to Vegas so I can leave with her and my aunt on the 28th or let them go ahead and just follow. If I get my visa before the 28th then I'll go with them. I wanna go somewhere in the Philippines before I leave though. My mom's bugging me to go with her but Jordan wants me to stay here till the first week of August.

It's really nice of you to give her that. I've got lots of plots to visit before I leave as well. Best wishes to you both, Jason! Rose and I might leave at the same time. lol.

So when you plan on leaving ? I gotta wait around 45 days before my Rose gets here since she wanted to be there for her dads 1 yr death anniversary and I got no problem with her dong that.

@aurora07 Hey you! Thank you so much! You're working that hat! good.gif I'll be sure to contact you if I do end up in NY. That would be awesome! good.gif

GOSH! I DIDN'T NOTICE THAT I DOUBLE POSTED! SO SORRY! whistling.gif I WAS SO EXCITED THAT I GOT MUSCLE SPASMS OR SOMETHING! rofl.gif
