Title: Just got call! Visa approved! Post by: The Mog returns on July 23, 2002, 04:00:00 AM Just got off the phone with Jicelle, her mom got the call yesterday from sis in Calaoocan City that her visa arrived! Its the greatest feeling. I want to thank all of you here for all you support, advice and tolerance when I got a lille rough around the edges during the frustrating waiting period. And a very special and sincere thanks to you Ray Bacon.
It seems like the Embassy approves visas in spurts. I guess maybe things are not so bad, I mailed off the K-1 petition on Feb. 7, so a little more than 5 months to visa, and that was WITH the dreaded "request for further documents"!... Thanks again my friends, you have all helped me a lot.... :-) yayyyy! Title: I know the feeling Post by: Bear on July 23, 2002, 04:00:00 AM ... in response to Just got call!

Hum, what service center are you going through? I went through NSC and had first NOA in one month, and second NOA after two months. I think any day you will get that nice formal looking letter in your mailbox. Title: Re: Re: Visa approved!

Thanks for sharing your story. Will you go to pick her up or await her arrival here? Jim Title: Re: Good Luck Mog Post by: The Mog returns on July 23, 2002, 04:00:00 AM ... in response to Good Luck Mog, posted by Jimbo on Jul 23, 2002
Jimbo, I cant really afford to, but I will go get her, she is only just turned 23, and a little scared of an international flight and entering the US on her own. I think it will be kind of fun, and I want to wish her parents goodbye and give them some small pasalubongs (gifts). Hoping to return for a church wedding after a little while, as with everyone Im sure, and this economy, money is tight right now. Its just such a relief, not being in the dark anymore. I think there is definitely something pyschological going on, a mental torture of sorts, with the not knowing a definitive date or time frame for these approvals,and the difficulty to get through to the Embassy that make the time periods and the waiting seem so distorted and long. |
