Mitch/Jezzieca

CONGRATS!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!

Well let me explain how this just recently worked for me..... Jezzieca has family in South Korea that we were interested in visiting on our way back here to the USA. I had all the same concerns that have been brought up here so I had Jezzieca go speak with someone at the South Korean embassy in Manila. They informed her that since she had a US VISA and a onward confirmed flight ticket to the USA that she would be permitted to enter South Korea for a stay of up to 30 days. I was skeptical of this simply based on some things I had read, but figured we would give it a try. I arrived in Manila on December 16th via Asiana Airlines ( for whatever that is worth) On December 19th we both boarded a Korean Air flight from Manila to Seoul. We landed that afternoon and when asked by immigration about her Korean visa she explained what the embassy had told her and about 3 minutes later they stamped her entry and we proceeded on for a 3 day stay. We just arrived here in the USA this morning via a nonstop flight on Korean Air from Seoul to Dallas, Texas. POE process in Dallas lasted maybe a total of 15 minutes (due to line) with no problems and we are both here now at the house. So I dont know if any of this relates to what is being discussed here , but just wanted to share my experience in regards to transiting through S. Korea.

I sent paystubs from previous 6 weeks, past 3 years W2 and employment letter and we had no problems....Interview completed on December 02...Visa received on December 05.

We have December 02 at 0700

I have always used Fedex......was $102 to ship the visa documents if I remember correctly, but well worth it for the peace of mind.

Well ... I sent mine from here in Dallas to the Vermont Service Center via USPS overnight mail...no problems with that. If I understand you correctly you will be sending it from Mexico. I would use Fedex, but that is just my personal opinion.

Mitch: 30

Jezzieca: 21

Congratulations on the baby! I hope that all continues to go well and that you enjoy each and every new experience that comes your way.

I agree with each of the above.... I have never had any difficulty getting a taxi from the airport going to the same hotel area that you are. I feel at that time of night it is simply safer and less stressful to grab a metered airport cab and enjoy what should be a less than 30 minute ride. Enjoy your time!
