hello my vj family, i just got home and i was in a hurry to share this good news we're approved and i got pink slip yehey!

was up very early 4am actually i didn't even get to sleep last nite, i was wide awake, so excited and at the same time was a litte nervous and anxious about the interview!

5am took a cab and got there (u.s embassy) 5:45am, waited and then 7am was in line and got inside!

inside--- another line for your number, i got my number 7024 and waited again.

about 30 mins.--- saw my number flashed on the screen.

my pre screner--- window 17, she was nice and asked me about 10 questions like;

---what's your name?---

---your petitioner's name?---

---how old?---

---i gave her my nbi and bc and phil's w2,itr and i-134

---i forgot the other questions hehehe ---

and then she told me to proceed to the next window, window 16 for finger scannning---finger scanned!

waited again for about two hours i guess--- after two hours of waiting, number flashed again says room 30

while waiting for my turn, i was praying

---meeting the consul--- eto na

hes very nice, blue eyed guy, kinda bald, in his mid-40s, kept on smiling at me and asked me to raise my right hand,

asked me my;nanz congrats!! sori late ako nakapag reply sa PM mo! anyways, congrats!!!!!

---name---

---petitioner's name---

---birthday---

and he was like "okay tell me about your love story" and smiled at me so i told him a little bit about "our love story"

and he uttered "oh that's wonderful, i want to see your pictures together" ---saw our pics and he was smiling and read all the captions

and i was blushing and smiling when he told me "good looking couple" i said thank you (payag na rin kayo 'wag na kayo kumontra)

and ofcourse te famous last words..."your visa is approved congratulations, wait for your name to be called and pay for visa delivery"

i was like in heaven wow what a wonderful day and a birthday gift from our dearest lord! ooppss september kasi birthday ko kaya consider ko na birthday gift sya sa akin

i would like to thank you all for your prayers and support, thank you so much my vj family, i wish you all good luck and a very happy marriage life to all of us

Hi Shes,

Kung may visa ka na..all u have to bring is,pasport and ur visa,photocopy of ur passport and visa,kung may previous kang kasal or ung fiance mo u have to bring a copy of it,,650 peso ang total fee and makuha mona na din kagad ung sticker at certificate...di ka na din mag dala picture kasi dun ka na picturan!!!

Hope this help!!!

God bless,

Irene

so u mean pag may visa na...these are the docs needed:

ORIGINAL VISA PASSPORT WITH VISA

PHOTOCOPY OF PASSPORT WITH VISA.

eh bat ano yung cenomar at bc of both the beneficiary and fiance? if ever pwede bang photocopy nalang mga bc at cenomar?

cenomar eh kinuha na sa USEM yun diba

birth certificate of both the beneficiary and petitioner, CENOMAR..etc .etc..

i heard they ask these 2 during the seminar? how true? ano ba talaga requirement dun? is there anybody here who just had the seminar this Aug? can u share the documents we need to bring?

hello shes, Congratulations,

anyway heres what they asked me, i had my seminar Friday last week

BC -authenticated

Cenomar

Fiancee devorce decree

Fiancee BC

NBI

copy of my passport

copy of my previous visa

copy of my previous CFO seminar stamp

bring the original, and photocopy them all, all they need is photocopy,

i had my seminar just me myself and the person who does the seminar, i dont have anybody or some applicants, just myself, may i can say, one on one, and so my interview,

but the lady is so nice to me, it took like 20 minutes of seminar and and im done,

goodluck.....

my ORIGINAL

CENOMAR

BIRTH CERTIFICATE

NBI

was taken by the pre screener...tatanggap ba sa cfo yung photocopy of all these? AND THE BC OF MY FIANCE? pwede bang xerox din, natural he cant give me the originals?

This is exactly why I am flying back for the interview this week. Michelle is very shy. I don't want to have something like this happen to her without me there to defend her. This woman should have been terminated on the spot. The scary thing is that people like this ultimately have our lives and futures in their hands, but don't seem to care. Maybe the embassy needs to re-assess their hiring and training practices in the future. People like this shouldn't be allowed to make decisions about other peoples lives. She's obviously got some serious mental issues to deal with. But anyway congrats on finally getting through the interview.

when i had my interview there are some filipinas with their USC fiance/hubby. we noticed that they took long during the pre screeening and inside the room compare to the filipinos who goes by themselves only.

if i may suggest...dont show up to the CO or pre screener with ur USC partner UNLESS an emergency situation happens that needs the USC's presence.

hmmmm..sound weird for me, i mean heres your Man for you on your big day, i cant understand why theyre not making it big deal!!!

i hope they try to appreciate how hard, i mean spending time, money, effort for our Fiance to get here, just to be with us,

i hope theyll realize, and make it as big deal!!!!

cus they really dont require the USC to be present during the interview. so i guess we cant blame them if they say they just want the "applicant" inside...

birth certificate of both the beneficiary and petitioner, CENOMAR..etc .etc..

NEW POLICIES WHICH ARE BETTER IN MY OPINION

congrats ulit sa atin. hehehe! i'm really glad that you and bernette were there. it wouldn't be fun without you guys. i'm really thankful din na naging smooth ung interview natin. just let me kelan ung cfo nyo and i'll do my best to join you. badtrip kase boss ko. d ba naman sumagot sa email ko about my resignation tas tinambakan ako ng work. oh well....i didn't stop bugging him until he forwarded my email to the HR. congrats again and God bless!

oo girl mag PM tayong tatlo sa kung kelan tayo mag cfo. hay nako sana maging ok kan na sa situation sa work mo. sa u.s. mo na pag patuloy ang kasipagan mo girl

like u am so thankful that you two were there! nako baka maloka ko dun kung wala akong kausap

Hi every one I just want to share a good news cyra (shes), bernette (russellmarie) and I were interviewed today and we all got pink slips only. Thank you so much for all those who have been very supportive through out this journey. May God bless us all!

CONGRATS SATIN!!!!!!

My husband and I are soooooooooo happy! :dance:

The CO was a young pretty american girl. She never smiled or even looked at me (nasayang lang ang facepowder at lipstick ko! lol!).

girl hindi nasayang !!! PINK SLIP KA NAMAN EH!.. congrats!!!!! yehey!!!!!

thanks to all of you girls!!!!!!!!!!!!! relax and have d confidence. definitely 2 of ur best weapons during the interview and syempre prayers!

So nice that you had fun! I just cant believe this line... she told me i dont have to be nervous at all and if incase i start to feel uncomfortable, its ok to tell her. Definitely doesn't sound like the lady consul I had for my interview. But it was also at wondow 29. Hmmm, maybbe she got a warning so she made a sudden change of attitude or as my fiancee said...her she changed her entire persona!

REally, same window Ria?

Shes, do u think it's the same lady per Ria's description?

DEFINITELY NOT THE SAME. well i dont know..but my experience with her was so peaceful. very soft spoken and very kind..me and marie even thought of what if we asked her if she got friendster or myspace..hahhah! but ofcourse we didnt do that and we wont! its just that were so very comfortable with her attitude towards us.

aay yung bc,nbi and cenomar pala kinua din sa pre screening.

:dance: yes.. to dance is the perfect way to start my story..

my ever loving father drop me off at the yellow cab located infront of the USEM entrance gate. in there, i meet up marie bernette (girl sori baka wrong spelling) then together we went to the USEM entrance. we were already talking about the dv upon crossing the street. hahahahah! then at the "waiting area" we saw Jas!! we were so very excited when we saw each other it was fun talaga!! we were talking about random stuff about the DV then the guard told us that we can now get inside the USEM. today was a very busy day at the USEM!!! grabe! there are alot of applicants! mostly families..

so we went inside...it was jas and marie who went inside 1st but i still saw them at the immigration section anyway. the 3 of us were inseparable! our numbers were in order and we stayed together til we got out of the USEM

so yun, after getting the number we just sat and waited for the instruction, there was a lady who stood infront and gave us some instructions about the forms..like there should be no blank in any of the forms, that we have to wait for our numbers to be flashed on the screen..etc etc... our names were called for the finger print scanning and u know i was called twice for this..but the 2nd time was just a mistake..i just told the lady at the window that i already had mine scanned minutes ago, they checked it from their records and okayed with it. i went back to my seat and waited for my number on the cue board.

when i saw my number flashing on the screen i went to the given window number and had my pre screening. the lady speaks in tagalog so nag tagalog din ako..wala, she asked for the DS forms, I-134, bank statement, employment sertification, ITR and W2..she asked for my name, my fiance's name..his work, the time of our first meeting, times he visited me here in the PI, asked for some pictures and my course in college and if i already took the boards and how much i spent with it.. and she commented "nako, maganda future mo pag andun kana sa u.s." sagot naman ako..."aayy nako thank you Lord for that!".... it was a fun talk! so then i went back to my seat..the 3 of us were all waiting for our CO interview.. while waiting, we were talking and making fun of each other.. were nervous but not serious about it we were having so much fun at the usem.

my turn came..window 29 (where marie also had her interview) i was the one who followed her. the lady IS SO NICE!!!! I have never thought that the interview can be that casual and fun! she asked me to raised my right hand and i raised my left! (me stupid) i said, "ooppss..im sorry" she smiled and said its ok. i just answered her a clear "YES" after she stated the swear. she told me i dont have to be nervous at all and if incase i start to feel uncomfortable, its ok to tell her. she also asked me beforehand if its ok if she speaks to me in english and i told her that theres no problem with that. so yun...she asked me the petitioner's name, how did we meet, how do we communicate, times he went here in the PI since we got together. her eyes opened wide when i told her how many times he visited me...she was like.."oh! he comes here too often to see you"..i told her .."oh yes!" (kinikilig pako nun!) then she asked for my fiance's job and its nature..so i told her..after that she browsed through the I129F docs for a while then smiled and told me.."ok, i dont see anything wrong on this, your visa is approved, you can just wait for the instruction for the delivery of your visa!" and i was like.."aawww..thank you, thank you so much...ur so nice.." she was smiling the whole time! when i stood up from my seat i told her that shes so very nice and im so thankful for it, then she said no problem.

so i got out of the room with a big smile on my fazzz!!!! hahahaaah! i waited again for my number on the cue board for the slips...(eto na!) exciting dito!...let me tell you that..during the pre screening.. i noticed a document with my name and fiance's name on it.., on its side, prints "VISA APPLICATION" theres a BARCODE on top and a print that says.."NATIONAL STATISTICS OFFICE" ..when i saw that, i got excited...i thought that that could be the verified documents and during my CO interview i saw the same document again..hahahaah! and when i was called again to the window that issues the slip.. AGAIN, I SAW THE SAME DOCUMENTS! from there it proved to me that YES THAT WAS THE DV FROM NSO BECAUSE THE MAN JUST GAVE ME A PINK SLIP!

it was on a folder and when he opened it and saw that mysterious document that keeps on saying hello to me on my interview, he said.."your visa is ok, just pay for the delivery. wag muna kayo mag pa schedule ng flight hangga't wala pa yung visa nyo ha"..then he stapled the pink slip on my confirmation email! yehey!! he gave back to me the photos and the confirmation email i handed over to the pre screener.

after that i paid the delbros then the 3 of us went out of the USEM with all smile!!!!!!! jas went to work but me and marie went to moa to eat!..we were dead tired and hungry already! but its worth it!!!!!!!

we went to moa and bought slippers for myself! grabe ang sakit na nga paa ko sa high heels ko ha! i called my sweetheart on the phone and told him the good news! - he was about to cry when he heard it.. (aaww..) but yes, ANG SAYA SAYA!!!!!

I thank the Lord for the success of my interview. I know his hands were working for me and my fiance all through out the process of our K1 application and will continue to work on us for life. All the Praises to him!

By the way I went there with fellow vjers Cyra(shes) and jas(jas noel) and we all got pink slip!!!

special mention! were the PINK GIRLS!!!!

This is for you Wyatt..I Love YOU!!! See you soon!!!

ayan...insipred ang girlash...tayong tatlo very inspired kanina! to God be the glory! ma ichika ko na nga din story ko!

girl congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! il see u on the seminar!

(si jas tulog pa ata )

shes congratz na kita good luck sa'yo and god bless you

nanz

girl thnx ha!

Hi..good luck sa interview mo.

Btw...hndi na ba need to bring the copy of the papers that our fiancee filed???

My fiancee gave me all the copy and he put in a folder and he brought it with him when he came here last May.

uuhhmmm.. i never heard someone being asked to show the I-129F during the interview. i guess theres no need naman..nako ang bigat nun kung dadalin ko pa yung copy ng fiance ko..but as far as i know theres no need po

You're good to go... good success sa interview.

thank you po

in think that's complete.. dala kang pera pambayad mo sa Delbros pra deliver sayo visa after 3days or less. And super easy lang ang interview at wala namn dapat ika nerbyos.

AYY oo syempre diko pwede kalimutan ang money..tnx!

you're good to go sis!!

why are ur DS 157 forms like that? isnt it that they only asks for 2?

1 validated by the bank and 1 printed from the internet?

i had HPV, DPT, MMR, Tdap. my bad, i forgot what vaccince dose should i get next..

does anybody recall the schedule?? sorry ha..nakalimutan ko po tlga..

When i had my medical, they gave me TDAP, MMR and Human Papillomavirus (anti-cervical cancer).

The nurse told me that i need to have another shot of TDAP after 2 months to complete the immunization. He said that i can also have that shot in the US and the next shot for TDAP is called TD.

I am not sure if that is what you are asking about? if not i think we can call SLEC naman to inquire about it
