This is exciting because Phil-Am familes have forged a space in The Foreign Embassy and Consulate General Discussion forum and have not had a place of our own until now. I wonder if the good forks in the Manila Embassy Thread would be apposed to moving the thread here.

Well if this is a poll, and you want votes to do so.. I'm OK with it.

Guess I did not look as to where this will be posted as a forum.

Hopefully it becomes number 1 instead of number 2.

It has had to be restarted a few times already..were on our way there.

Thanks to all...Randy

:dance: Update to all. I posted this under the AR Forum, but thought I would post here to help those wondering in the Manila forum, hope thats alright.

After faxing papers last week to their fax number listed on line at the State Dept, we got results. Thanks to those who informed me to try there.

Well anyway, last night , I received a reply saying that we would get results, and it would be resolved quickly. An hour later I received a reply from my wife saying Delbros had texted her saying delivery would take place in the next few days. Then the State dept sent a reply saying the issue was resolved, thank you for your inquiry into your case. Still no answer saying why, what, or anything. Would be nice to know what the issue was, so it may help others, but I don't know if I will ever know now. So anyway, it took exactly 32 days for the Embassy to release the Visa to Delbros. This is what is there as of now.

5/22/2007 6:06:22 PM SHIPMENT IN PROCESS

4/20/2007 2:57:11 PM SHIPMENT PROCESS IN THE EMBASSY

I want to thank everyone, and I truly mean that in helping me and my wife thru this, and all the others who have been given hope, and with our approval, I hope it gives hope to the others in AR. May there be fewer in the future, and may the days pass quickly for those waiitng.

God Bless All, and now pray for a successful delivery of her Visa, and a safe trip home to me.

I booked tickets for the 4th of June. N.W. Airlines

Hope it happens, Bring My Love To Me.

Happy Memorial Week to all and Thanks Again.
