POE is probably first week of May. Fiance is going to have to go live with an upgrade on the system in the company so he'll be working 7days a week... NICE!

I will be posting my interview experience in the Philippine forum as well but right now I have to get ready for work. Loads of fun... sad.gif

Take care everyone! I missed you all.

Dani - hang in there sis. Fiance and I will book a room when I get to KY for the Irish Festival in August. Will see you there! Keep your head up, ok?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresTruth & The Visa Process
I am so sorry for what happened. Well, that CO is probably the most stuck up individual in the world. I have a feeling she was the one who interviewed one of the VJ members here where she had to throw a fit and make a scene that she was being bribed by the beneficiary. How pathetic can it get? We all do everything the legal way and this is what we get. Very nice! I applaud the red tape and absence of fairness.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresIs it necessary for my fiance to meet my family?
I agree with him wholeheartedly. There is much higher chance for you and your fiance to get mugged in Manila than the risks in Mindanao. Mindanao issues are all overrated and exaggerated. I was born in Mindanao and lord, I love that place.
Going back to your question, no need for your fiance to have pictures with your family and if he isn't that convinced with Mindanao being safe, then at least bring him to some relatively "cleaner and better" place than Manila like Cebu and some other parts of the Visayas.

Good luck and God bless!!!

No need to have pics with your parents. Just have pics of you and him together, and take them in front of Jollibee's, Chow Kings, Jeepneys, etc...

I have made 3 trips to PI over the last 2 year, and spent about 2 months over there.

I stay in Mindanao region. And travel all over by plane, bus, Motorbike.

Tell him Mindanao is as safe as any place in PI. If he has only visited Manila then he has only seen the dirty and crowded part of PI.

Have him go to Cebu and take the SuperFerry to Camigium Island, it is as pretty as any place I have seen in the World.

You can get a beach front Hotel for $25 per night. Have room service for $3 per meal. Rent a motor bike for $10 per 24 hours.

It's is full of many spring to swim in. And some of the best beaches I have seen.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresGoing through a rought time, needing some sound advice.
Lee,

You are not alone. Your fiancee is not alone. I have just gotten out of the hospital about 2 weeks ago due to stress and a lot of it has top do with this whole crappy K1 process which is entirely too slow for my entirely too impatient self.

But you know I have realized that it really doesn't help any in making everything easier for me and my fiance (USC). All the more he gets worried and I am causing undue stress too.

Why don't you guys go ahead and divert your attention to more pleasant things like maybe the planning for the wedding when your petition gets approved.

It's not easy. I have been there. Still are struggling to get out of the depression. But no one really takes care of you but yourself. Relax and keep the faith.

Aww... You are most welcome! Welcome to the waiting club by the way. You can always come over and vent and freak out every once in a while. This forum has been very helpful for me and it's such a relief that I am not alone.

I would suggest that as early as now, you start thinking of things to get keep you busy as the whole wait could really wear you out and drive you nuts.

The wedding preparation always helps. Much love!

This is something I notice with CSC. They're bad when it comes to sending the NOA1. But the NOA2 always comes up in the mail I guess that shouldn't be a problem. The NOA2 is more important as that is what you will use when adjusting status.

Good luck nienna.

Have him look on the back of the cancelled check.. The case number is indicated there...

Why would he think they do not have the correct address?

No, the cheque wasn't cancelled or returned, they've processed the cheque and have the money but we haven't heard a thing from UCSIS, we don't have a case number. I thought they were supposed to send us notification that they have received our application.
