I would like to thank my fellow VJ'ers, without y'alls helpful advices and experiences my family will not able to reach this great moment. My wife's and son visa's got approved yesterday 10:30 am at manila embassy, The consul was very nice to them, she asked a couple of question. "Who is your petioner?", and "How did we met your husband?", "Have you been out of the country?" and for my son question was "What is your name?" and "How old are you?". after that the consul said congratulations your visa is approved. she claimed its was merely 3 mins of interview.

Again Thank you and good luck guys to your Journeys!!!
