Wow Thank you everone for your kind comments..I raelly appreciate it so much..Im so thankful everything is over and I thank the Lord above for all of this... thanks for all ofyour help

oh yea and crys, what I mean is that they strongly encourage that you pay for the delbros document verification fee at least two weeks before your interview date,because it usually takes around 2 weeks for nso to verify all the documents.. you pay for the delbros delvery fee on the day of the delivery... good luck on your journey

Hi everyone just wanted to say that at 430pm yesterday my we got a text from delbros that the delivery guy was outside our door with our visa.. what a great feeling..I couldnt believe it..Oh my gosh and the thing was delivered on a motorcycle...hehe..thats crazy here in the pi, but its ok because it works..hehe..

Well my wifes interview was on feb 21st, and we recieved our visa about four days after that.. which is so relieveing, So were making our trip to the cfo today for finalization..

BUT HERES The Thing... I never knew that we had to pay for the delbros document verification.. at least two weeks ahead...

and I remember reading the post on here, that if you pay it late,it will be at least a 2 week delay to issue the visa,

Well I know the Lord haneled this is his own hands... because I payed for the document verification on feb 20th right at 345pm right before metrobank closed, and we had our interview on feb 21st at 630am, It was only a 15 hour gap between the document verification and the interview, and we still got our visa within four days after the interview..... I dont know if they just waived it but they never mentioned it in the interview, I dont maybe because I was in the military and maybe that helped? Idk... but maybe this situation can help some people and give some people hope if they payed theyre document verification late and they would still have a regular estimated time of their arrival...

Has anyone had he same situation before? I mean Im so happy for this and I know it because of the lord.. because I was so worried because I was thinking I would have to wait another 3 weeks for my wife to come back with me in san francisco 1st.I thank the lord

and all you vj members for your help

My wife will be leaving on march 1st..thanks the lord for that.... I hope this topic will clear up some stuff about document verification and how it really affects peoples cases..take care and thank you

Hi everyone just wondering for the ones that have completed their cr1 visa interviews in manila... I got the packet with all the interview requirements and got it all listed down..

but I was just wondering for the ones who completed the cr1 interview..What documents exactly did you bring to the interview... I read all the requirements but just wanted to get some feedback on the ones who have completed their interviews thanks any help would be appreciated

I really liked how family oriented Filipinos are. America most families aren't.

Yeah thats true, majority of american families these days worry to much about materialistic things and depend on it for happpines. True Happiness is being happy with the things we have and not the things that we dont have. It just causes more confusion and stress, either way in the end family is always there.

what do you mean there is nothing there anymore??? as i recall, they had restaurants.....mini concerts.....people all over walking til sunrise....i was planning to take hubby there.

i love bora!!!!! it's my favorite place in the world!!

Maybe he meant the Restaurants, bar, mini concert stuff..

The new mayor told em to go.. What was he's name again.. Mayor Lim!! That's right..

Yeah it's Mayor Lim!! hmm boring Baywalk now

Yeah I was there in november of 07, It was closed a little before that, I mean no more bands and little restaurants. my wife said something about the trash and other stuff that was being thrown in to the ocean and some other hazards. I really miss going there at night and listening to the bands and nibbling on sisig..haha.. and plus that was where my wife and I had our first date.... Well Im sure they'll figure something out....

Im not from the pi, Im from Guam which is pretty similar in culture, but Ive been in the pi for awhile and miss so many things:

Miss

1. my wife and in-laws, cool friends Ive met over there.

2. kare kare, batchoy, Dinuguan, lechon kawali (my favorite), crispy pata, sisig, goldilocks lumpia..the list goes on..haha..

3. riding the jeepney's, and cab's

4. waking up in the morning and hearing side cart motorbikes and loud jeepneys driving by our place...

5. definitely all the sm malls and having dinner at baywalk and fun nights at greenhbelt and cowboy grill..hehe..

6. shopping at greenhills and bacalaran

7. P650 "brand name" shoes..haha..

8. seeing people enjoy and appreciate the most simple things in life and dont complain and just work around it, not too many people like that here in the u.s. Its taught me a lot and was a good experience.

9. all the street food...

love about the u.s.

1. the weather and the clean air (san francisco)

2. no traffic

3. sight seeing

4. job opportunities

5. many more and will find out more once my wife gets here..

Hey man... Don't feel like a stranger here..

I too grew up in Guam!! As a matter of fact when we were petitioned back in 91 our Port of Entry was Guam..

That's my island bro!! (che' lu!!) hehehehe.. Stayed in that Island for 8yrs.. Lived up north in Yigo!! Outside Andersen Airbase..

I know the Chamorro Culture..

BTW I miss the red rice from KFC and some Finadeni sauce.. hehehehe

Hey Erick, Wow Chelu its such a small world..huh..lol.. wow man thats crazy... Thats nice to know man, thats weird cause weve been messaging each other and you have lived in Guam before and know what Im talking about..haha..thats cool man.. Yea I stayed in mong mong, born and raised in Guam, half chamorro and Maori(New Zealand). oh so you stayed in Anderson area.. I used to go to the Anderson back roads and street race when I was younger and naughty..lol.., but no more...... Wow thats nice to hear man.. Yea I miss finadeni and the red rice...all the healthy food..haha.. Where you originally from in the pi?

its better if you get a state drivers license..It will save you on car insurance in the long run also.. I think the rate is almost doubled compared to having a state license..

HI everyone Im fairly new to vj, but Ive been waiting for my wife to get her visa inerview scheduled.

I just wanted to know if anyone else got there case completed around the 2nd to 3rd week of december and if you did.. has anyone had their interviews scheduled for feb? thanks everyone hope anyone can help... any info or input will help and happy new years..thank you

Hey congrats Roserick.. haha welcome to the club.. I just got my case complete automated message on dec 17,2007.. and hopefully any day they will forward it to the us embassy in manila.. so were only a couple weeks off.... I hope we both get our interviews in feb..goodluck and congrats.. i love the feeling how its counting down..haha.. congrats again

Your not alone, Im gonna be spending our first anniversary alone also, but we still dont have an interview yet..things could be worst but Im thankful to God for the strength it has given us.. be happy you have an interview and can have a countdown... hope you feel better

i feel you buddy, its hard on the heart man. Just be strong, dude time keeps going and never stops. Im still waiting for my sweetheart to come here, its like I never feel complete and can never enjoy things unless shes here, but just pray to God to keep you and your wife strong, God is the link, and true love is strong...

hey everyone im new here on this forum, iv been following my i-130 since feb when we filed it, we payed a lawyer to do everything for us, and everything was going good untill. my lawyer sent our final packet in with ds230 for completion of the case, they recieved it on nov 5 and I called the nvc automated system and it said,

"THEY REVIEWED MY PACKET AND THEY FOUND MISSING OR INCOMPLETE INFORMATION" AND WILL SEND A CHECKLIST LETTER. I was really dissapointed in that because we payed a lawyer to do it and thatts what we get, more delay! idk is that normal, have many people experienced this, if so how much longer did you have to wait. t

this is nightmare for me, the last thing I wuold ever want to happen, any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
