  1. Good Morning John. My name is Gary. I have a question to ask you in regards a arrest record, if you dont mind

  2. I wrote: "Methotrexate is a common med for Chrohn's.  Average pharmacy cost is $79/2.5mg pill.  Goodrex has a discount through Costco at $26/pill. "

     

    It's Goodrx.com  not Goodrex

     

    The place to check is pharmacychecker.com  I've used several companies over the past decade with zero issues (other than one who took 5 weeks to deliver the meds).  I always check who the pharmacy is and search their qualifications.

     

    Cipla is a common supplier, very high quality, a med bought here at $20/40/tablet from India 0.50 to $2- there, it's sick.   Also suggest to your friend if he needs, for instance xx milligrams (let's say 40mg) per day, will the doc allow writing a script for the 80mg/day dose, and can it be cut in half?  

     

    Heck I do that with rosuvastatin.  My doc however acts as pharmacop and so I say: yes I take 20mg, in reality I cut them into 1/3.  But you cannot do this with some meds!  I have access to lipid blood testing equipment so I played around cutting it into 1/4 for 2 months, so taking 5mg, then 2 months later, 10, then 2 months later 15.  After a dozen fingersticks I settled on 1/3 (that's about 6.3mg)  My HDL:LDL ration is about 2.2 which is brilliant.  If your friend is smart enough to act like a weasel he can get his meds for a small fraction but he must do it carefully.

     

    Good luck,

    Btw, I have dry eye syndrome and use Restasis.  My co-pay was $550/3 months, I bought it from one of the Canadian pharmacies for $130 shipped... that's sick when I can buy from a legitimate pharma for 25% of my co-pay.  Yikes.

      Thank you so much.  I will pass this on. I feel so bad for him (and anyone else in that situation).  

  3. Hey, Are you ok???

      Doing great. Just rushing to get all the arrangements done in time. Things are moving nicely.

  4. Congratulations John and Rose....

    A dream come true... I am so excited about my future with my fiancé . Life is good. We are a February 2018 flyer

    Again very happy for you and your new family.

      Thank you so much!  I really believe your journey will be much smoother than ours.  I’ll bet you will have NOA2 in early July!

  5. Congratulations on the NOA2, it has been a long road for you both....... I guess you have gotten used to making roads go faster!

    Wishing you the best of luck with the rest of the process, please keep posting so we can see how you are getting on.

    We are  September 15th, so it is getting a little tense right now..but at least they have got to our date!  I have my Police report, just working on medical history now.

    Again, I am really pleased for you both

      Your time is about to happen. I am so glad that USCIS has started to get their act together. I don’t want anyone to have to wait 9 months for NOA2. That was not very fun!

  6. HI JOHN!

     

    Very, very, very happy to hear about you and Rose. <3

      John & Rose

      Thank you so much!  It was a shock.  I had called the day before and was told they hadn't reviewed the RFE yet.  The next day the NOA2 showed up.

  7. yay!!!!! congrats so happy for you!!!!

  8. Hey John.

     

    I see you have stuff about the Philippines (below).  Are those two classes offered in CFO or are they all separate things required?  I knew about the CFO class.

    Thanks,

    John

     

    PHILIPPINES ONLY!!!  CFO (Commission on Filipinos Overseas) INFO - Can't leave home without it!

     

    PDOS (Pre-Departure Registration and Orientation Seminar) is for ages 20-59.  Peer Counseling is for 13-19 years of age.

    It is required to have the visa in their passport for PDOS and Peer Counseling.

     

    GCP (Guidance and Counseling Program) is for K-1 Fiancee and IR/CR-1 spouse ONLY.   These are the only ones that can attend the seminar without their visa.

    1. John & Rose

      John & Rose

      You only need the GCP if you are the beneficiary.  In my case there are two teenagers who have to take the peer counseling after they receive their visas.

       

      All you need is the GCP and you do not need to have your visa to do it.

       

      The CFO class for fiance(e)s is called GCP.
