Think we got most of our ducks lined up, just one possible problem.

Got all the documents we'll need, NBI Clearance (took a month since she has a "common name" , CENOMAR, BC's, the Japanese Police Clearance (took almost 2 months!) got our interview scheduled for Aug 26 at 7:30am, I booked my trip 22-27 Aug, hotel reserved. I'm going to print out all our DS forms and the rest of the package this weekend.

April did the CFO yesterday, sorry no review, didn't get any feedback from April except that she went. She's going for the medical today, staying at a nearby hotel with her Mom for support. Hope it goes okay, cause she was sick last Friday and said she still has a cough. I also hope she doesn't get anyone else sick!

After that I'm planning on going back next month to bring her back sometime after the 15th (haven't bought tickets yet) so that she can stay for her Sister's and Aunt's birthdays.

Thanks to everyone here whos' offered advice and support!

QUACK!!! Think I'm quacking up

One more hurdle completed, well at least I think so. April was told to come back today for her immunizations, so I'm assuming everything went okay at her medical exam. Now I just have to get off my okole and put our package together for the embassy interview.

Oh, and she said they did give her a hard time at the CFO semminar (don't know exactly how), but she said she didn't get out till after 2pm and was the last one out.

Okole...I just read that a realized you are from Hawaii. I am on Maui. Yeah you are right, the CFO people really suck! They gave my wife so much grief, made her come back 2 times. Then when we had to return to CFO after she received her visa it took 3 frickin' hours just to get the CFO sticker put into her passport. And the stuff they teach there is from the 1950's. Pre-VAWA. What a joke! But in the end it was all worth it. My wife and I are here together on Maui now for almost 1 month and I HAVE NEVER BEEN HAPPIER.

Aloha,

David

Maui huh? Haven't been there for quite awhile, but my brother lives there, so will probably take the fiancee there to meet the In-Laws before we get hitched.

I scheduled my fiancee for the same date. You guys are going to run into each other. She has her medical tomorrow.

Did your fiancee have to return again to the CFO thing? Was it pretty easy to schedule?

Thanks

[April-n-Gary 17]

Didn't have to go back to the CFO, they passed her the same day, just took a bit longer it seems, she said they asked a lot of questions about us. Don't think they can schedule the CFP seminar, just have to show up and take your chances, think they only do 30 a day for the US bound people, 15 in the morning, 15 in the afternoon. First come, first served.

I'll be with April for the interview, so I'll keep an eye out for your fiancee and say hi.

Good luck with the interview(s)! Joan and I are in Waikiki. Give us a shout when everyone is back in these Islands!
