Title: Visa Success? Post by: Taliman on December 12, 2001, 05:00:00 AM Hi all, well Christine had her I-130 Interview
at the US Embassy today. We filed the Petition back in Jan through NSC. Just got off the phone with her. Here is what happened: US Embassy Interviewer: "Hello Christine how are you?" Christine "Doing fine thanks" US Embassy Interviewer: "So your here for your visa?" Christine "Yes Maam" Interviewer:"Do you love your husband?" Chrstine:" Of course I do" Interviewer:"Ok your papers are fine you'll be getting Christine: "Thank you Maam"
Now if they follow through we can really celebrate! Question for the board. Thanks again to everyone. Title: Congratulations! Post by: Dave H on December 14, 2001, 05:00:00 AM ... in response to Visa Success?, posted by Taliman on Dec 12, 2001

Congratulations Dingo! Another survivor of the long visa process… The visa is on a separate document and they don’t keep the passport at the interview. They will take the visa from her when she arrives at the port of entry in the U.S. Ray Title: Re: Separate Document - Ray Post by: Taliman on December 12, 2001, 05:00:00 AM ... in response to Separate Document, posted by Ray on Dec 12, 2001
Wow Thanks Ray that is just what we needed to hear. She called the embassy for the 2nd time and went in person again today to make sure they don't need her passport. For some reason we started to think that they somehow "grafted" the visa and picture INTO the Philippine passport itself. Thanks for clearing this up.

Hi Tess and Stephen, Well no Visa in hand yet so we'll have to wait for that. I'm hoping for mid-january or just before the 1st of the new year if were reallllly lucky. Glad you and your wife have remained active on the boards for so long even though you are now together. maraming salamat Taliman Title: In her passport n/t Post by: donb2222 on December 12, 2001, 05:00:00 AM Title: Re: In her passport n/t Post by: Taliman on December 12, 2001, 05:00:00 AM ... in response to In her passport n/t, posted by donb2222 on Dec 12, 2001
Hi Don that's not good to hear since they did NOT take her passport. She has the SPOUSAL visa so not sure if this is different process from you Fiance Visa She called the embassy after she returned to her hotel to Verify they don't need her passport they said "nope don't need we will send visa"....now I'm confused and a little concerned. Anyone have any ideas? thanks Taliman |
