A brief update on our case. She had the interview July 15, and although she was one of the last to get interviewed before lunch her interview was soo easy and relaxed and visa approved! Perfect timing getting the interview that day too since July 16 the embassy was closed. Her status went immediately to AP, and on July 18 went to ISSUED. Timing again coz shortly after her visa was issued was when the computer glitch happened delaying visa processing! The following Tuesday afternoon, right when we're about to check her status, she gets a text from 2Go that her visa is ready for pickup! So we spend about 4 hours going to MOA just to get her visa (so traffic in Manila). Next day, we go back to CFO to get her sticker. We thought this was gonna be quick, but no...we waited over an hour there at CFO (both of us in separate waiting areas). Eventually she got it. When we arrived back to her place we booked our flight back to the US. Our flight left July 25, and her POE was at LA the same day. POE was very easy, we both went through the US citizen line. Gave the officer her packet and passport, he asked her some questions, flipped through her packet, stamped the packet and her passport and said congratulations on your upcoming wedding. And that was it! We had an overnight flight back to Iowa, arrived back to our place about 9am July 26. So tired we were! We just both collapsed and slept till late afternoon!

Well, fiancée has been here over a week now! She is adjusting slowly, and we are so happy together. Introduced her to Netflix, she loves it! Although she only watches maybe one movie a day. She loves the faster internet here as well. She spends a lot of time doing things around the house, and I found out she is a very good cook. Every meal has rice lol. A few days ago she got brave and started to take walks around the neighborhood. Last night, she baked cookies for the first time. They were so good! She wants to learn how to bake and start baking kind of as a hobby since she won't be able to work for a while. Also trying to get her interested in other things as well, so she's not completely bored at home.
