. . .Well, I was unable to PHONE the NVC from Tuguegarao, soooo, I EMAILED them a week after the NOA2 & got a reply in12 hours with a MNL#!!! Highly recommended way of getting your MNL#. . . So then we paid our $240 & set up the interview which is Thursday the 13th at 7:30AM; Fiancee is at SLEC right now doing the medical; I will be at the USEM Visa interview with my Fiancee & then head home around 8PM later that same day. . . .We are aiming for her coming to the Sonora, CALIF ( any Filipinas near there??? ) area around the middle of February as she has some family obligations until then. . . Thanks to all who helped with answering questions that we posted !!!! Happy Holidaze!!!!!
