Sorry to hear that. I remember in the CFO seminar that the fiancee will be the to buy you a ticket back to PI.

congrats!

Don't forget your CEMAR/CENOMAR - make sure its not expired...6 months is the expiration.

nope. No letter at all.

We submitted a letter from the bank. Bank statement for a whole year. Tax Return 2008-2010. We didn't even submit a IRS transcript. NO RFE in NVC and I was never asked for IRS transcript in USEM but I have it with me though just in case.

My husband is self-employed and we never had any problem. Passed and got the visa.

355 dollars - I-130

88 dollars - AOS

404 - IV Fee

I don't know if the fee in filing was changed but this the fee when we filed our petition.

The medical in St. Luke change depends on the dollar currency exchange.

That's not normal. Did you ever try to call the embassy? You should call instead of emailing them and ask what's really happening.

1. 4 copies of G-325a for each (beneficiary and petitioner)

2. Just put N/A or None

3. We did not abbreviate the country though.

congrats!

As long as you have your MNL case number, you can do an advanced medical.

congrats... that's a very fast approval!

congrats!

Port St. Lucie here.

NVC Stage is next after receiving NOA2.

no wonder why she didn't show up, that's crazy and scary.

congrats

I hear yah!

Steph, I suggest to wait until 7 working days. The normal wait is 7-10 days.

Glad to hear you got it. Riza had her interview on oct 6th. No congratulations, just said review. No problems mentioned nothing asked for. they did take passport and info for shipping. This sucks. We were planning on reception beginning of December in Gensan and be in the states married before the first of the year. I called the 241-571-1600 and was told just to wait. I have been waiting since March! ahhh thanks for letting me vent.

It took 16 days from the date of interview to the visa issuance (weekends and typhoon incident not included). The waiting is hell but after you got the visa then its all worth it like Tahoma said.

Just keep emailing them and call them so you will know the development of your case.

Hi Lorie and Dough,

Thank you very much and more power to you guys!

They won't even check your teeth in St. Luke. They will check your eyes though.

They need the passport with the stamp from SLEC right? What did you use when you had your medical? Maiden name or Married name?

Here's the telephone number of Cebu 2go Courier: 032-233-71-36, so you don't need to call long distance in 2go Manila.

When I called 2go in Manila, they told me I can call that number to avoid expensive call in their Manila Office.

You can get it online and it will be deliver within 2-3 days.
