    TShayne got a reaction from Chancy in Police certificate from Kuwait   
    My wife work in Kuwait then went home and we married shortly after. In Kuwait you can only get a police clearance if you were still residing there. For her interview we just printed the requirements to get a police clearance in Kuwait and also the Reciprocity. My wife presented that when asked and no more was asked about it.

    TShayne got a reaction from Genski92 in Fiance wants to be OFW.... opinions please   
    My wife was working in Kuwait when we met. At that point she had 10 months left in her contract. Her first employer provided no food for her. Her second employer was abusive. So after 4 months she was on her third employer. The basically bought her. Took her passport and she had to serve 2 years with them. They seemed to be an ok couple, but her days were 630am to 10pm or later. One day off a month and in dollars she made 318 dollars a month. I tried to buy out her contract so she can go home and we could plan out our wedding. But no agreement was reached. So, It was also a long wait for her return. But the fact she did not have her passport, she could not leave. So had to wait that out also. Once she returned home to the Philippines, we eventually got married in 2018. The question was brought up what to do while waiting. After discussing to prevent any more problems, I told her to stay home and i would give her what she would have made overseas. I would choose wisely, cuz with uncertainty you could get a letter that your interview is within two months. If she can’t leave a foreign country, then it’s all for not. My wife had her interview in December and just arrived here. It’s a long process but don’t allow her to go too far cuz at some point things will move again and you need her there to be ready.

    TShayne got a reaction from Adventine in Travel from Philippines to the US (Texas) During Covid   
    We are looking at Japan air from Manila to Japan the American airlines to Dallas. There are two American flights out of Japan to Dallas. AA 8439 fly out in the morning from Japan and arrives 7am Dallas time. According to flight activity log, there are 4 flights a week . Over the last couple weeks no cancelations. Flight AA60 leaves Japan late afternoon and arrives around 2pm. The activity log for it, shows its a daily flight.  But the last two Tuesdays it was cancelled, and once on Sunday. But again that is as of today. Hopefully nothing will change so we all can get our loved ones here.

    We are looking at Manila to Japan to Dallas.  American Airlines being the last leg. No covid test needed. 4 hour layover. Right now cost is about 650. Still too early to buy as our interview is still two weeks out.

    Talked to a gentlemen at the NVC late yesterday evening. He took the time to explain the cancelation email and the process. Being our case was ready at the NVC and we were in line for an interview, once the case was removed from the system, it generate the cancelation notice. He wasn't sure why the case was still there but he said give it a few more days and if there has been no change to contact the NVC again. He was very nice and gave great detail on everything I asked. This morning at 6am I received an email from the NVC that our case is now "In Transit" to the embassy. Great News!!!
