VISA APPROVED today! :D

The pre screener is nice to me! although I heard that some Filipino pre screeners were rude compared to the American consul.

He just asked me my birth certificate, cenomar, and nbi clearance. Then he asked me how I met my fiancé, how many times he visited me and the last time we saw each other. He then asked me the affidavit of support and he encircled the income of my fiancé and then he asked for the 1040,and W2. He asked me what's my fiancé work, I told him he is in the military and he asked me for my fiance's Statement of service and Member Data Summary. He told me to prepare my proof of relationship wd my fiancé and wait my number to be called.

When my number flashed on the screen that was the time I felt nervous. My hands and feet were sweating! LOL!

But I still managed to greet the consul good morning and smiled at him.

She just asked me 2 questions, what is my fiance's job, I told him he is in the Military.

And the last question, where is he stationed at. And then she smiled and said my papers were good and congratulated me!

YAYY! I guess I'm really really lucky today! :dance:

There is a pride most will never understand, it is a series of late night phone calls, I miss yous, see ya laters, sexy dress blues, lots of tears, endless prayers, care packages & love letters, countdowns, homecomings, best friends you've never met, dog tags, Skype dates: a military thing, you will never understand.
