As of December 9,2014, my wife got approved from her interview!! I just woke up from a nap after not going to sleep from my graveyard shift and waiting till my wife get to her interview until she gets done (almost 24hours). After all the waiting, mailing this, paying this and that, making this and that, sending this, sending that, our prayers, sacrifices and patience gave fruit! We're so blessed and thankful for all the help I got and guidance from this website! I'm not that active in this forum but surely my prayers are with y'all everyday. Surely, a lot of relief is off from our relationship with this long distance is about to come to an end. Thank you s much guys! I know that God made all thing possible! Even a few minutes of you time every single day is enough for Him. God bless y'all! Thank you! I will try my best to help our co-VJ members if anybody has questions regarding our visa journey.

congratulations.

This is the greatest lesson a child can learn. It is the greatest lesson anyone can learn. It has been the greatest lesson I have learned: if you persevere, stick w/it, work @ it, you have a real opportunity to achieve something. Sure, there will be storms along the way. And you might not reach your goal right away. But if you do your best and keep a true compass, you'll get there. Edward M. Kennedy,
