Hey Fam!!! Sorry I've been on hiatus for so long. I've been having some internet issues and I've been a extremely busy with my little girls lately. But I got some great news! My baby just called me an hour ago while he's at the football field coaching kids talking about our petition. Too much noise on the back round and I couldn't hear him that clear. I heard he mentioned about our "petition" and I always get a mini heart attack everytime I hear that word. :lol: The call got disconnected but I didn't try to call him back, I logged on USCIS quick and here's what I've read: :dance:

"On August 8, 2011, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283."

Praise you Papa God! This is so unexpected... I've been worried about "denial or RFE" but Thank God, there's NONE. Our K1 has been approved after 73 days!!! Now I'm lost, we have no idea what to do next. :lol: Only thing we know is that our journey doesn't end here. So let the journey continues...

OMG I'm so happy for you, Ate!!!! YAY!! :dance:

Currently.... they have issued Ice the incorrect GC and we have tried 4 times to fix it. First time they had us send it to the incorrect address. Second time they said we used an expired form, which was the form they gave us. Third time was "oh sorry we lost the last page, can you send it again?." Fourth time is the gov is shut down. Will this ever be corrected in time for Ice to get the permanent GC? Stay tuned to find out. T_T

Ok here is a little thing kind of like Sabrina started before....Excuse me if we already talked about this....But I was just thinking what made you fall in love with your fiance? (L)(F)(L)(L)(F) . Ok I will go first...Besides his smile :D:D , he is such a smart and caring man, always putting family before himself...I could go on and on....I just cant wait to hug and hold him in my arms once again......missing my babbbyyyyyy..... :crying::crying::crying: But God is watching and he is in perfect control.

I don't know when or why we fell in love because it was so much over time. I think it's when I realized that he treats me very well compared to others before me, or maybe the way he looks at me, or maybe it was when he was up with me at the laudry mat at 2am. It's hard to say when, but it happened. :lol:

On another note....I wish we were with the CSC. :(

Thanks TeamKat!!! :yes:

Thank you Tom!!! What would I do without ya? :) This really got me nervous! We were expecting approval around September or November cause our case is kinda complicated... My biological father is an American and we tried to claim my citizenship in 2009 but because of lack of cooperation from both sides specially from my side, our case wasn't pushed through. I just hope they won't roast me about my previous case on our interview day. :lol:

P.S. How do you guys do the quotation thing? I'm such a noob please forgive me and my dummy self. :bonk::lol:

Britt I been here so long and to tell you the truth, I dont even know how to put my pic on my posts like the other guys :bonk: I guess I was too shy to ask anybody....he he he he!!!:rofl: Dont worry about your past on that! If they dont ask,then you dont Tell!:yes: :yes: :thumbs:

We got our case number from NVC today! They're speeding up apparently! YAY!

Congrats to you Both.....Stuart and Thea!! Now for the Final 2 Steps!!! Good Luck!!!:dance::dance::dance::dance::thumbs::thumbs:

Well today marks the 3 month for my application process at VSC and I also finally broke the 200 mark in igor list. I'm hoping they get to May files soon. Good luck everyone. It feels as if time has stopped. The less time is left in approval the longer it takes..so it.feels that way...

Nicolette Thanks!..."I found out 30 mins ago our case still at NVC for "Normal" Processing the Operator told me. They just scanned it LATE last Night, I Called them early this Morning and it was at that time I got my NVC/Manila case Number.It took actually 21 days from Approval Nicolette, but they tell you to wait "15" business days before you contact them.I dont listen to that.I called everday sometimes 2 times a day until i got our case number. ALSO.....since our case is still at NVC and just received by them yesterday.......August 8th, I will call until i know the case is on the way to Manila, then i will bug them....he he he he!!:rofl: As long as we got that Case number, we can go ahead later this Month with medical since you NEED that case number before you can do your medical.

But God is watching and he is in perfect control.

Me and my baby have the cheeziest love story. :blush: But I fell in love with him because he's so amazing, and sooo irresistible! :P His eyes, his lips, his smile, the sound of his voice, his kindness, the way he calls me beautiful like it's my name, :blush: the way he makes me smile like no one else does, the way he calms me when I'm worried, the way he says "Mahal na mahal kita Kulit", :D everything that I fell in love with from the start, which now I love a million times more! :blush:(L) He's also the best Daddy ever! And would y'all believe that our first kiss was the night before he left? Yes he's super gentleman too! And the mere 5 sec of our very first kiss, I KNEW HE'S THE ONE... :blush: I'm sooo blessed to have him in my life, he's the most amazing guy in the whole wide world and He's all MINE. :P:yes: I still don't know what I ever did to deserve him but I'm so glad it happened that way. :lol: He's my King.

OMG I'm so happy for you, Ate!!!! YAY!!

Thank you Lil Sis... God is good. He showed up once again. I am very grateful. :)

I think I figured it out Tom! :lol:

"Contrary to what the cynics say, distance is not for the fearful, it is for the bold. It is for those who are willing to spend a lot of time alone in exchange for a little time with the one they love. It is for those knowing a good thing when they see it, even if they don't see it nearly enough."
