    Thumbs up I am so GRATEFUL to be a FIL-UK family!

    Hello everyone at last the long wait is over, finally after 11 weeks I got my FIANCEE VISA successfully, me and my kukupops didn’t slept very well when I got a txt from VFS yesterday saying “Processed passport returned through courier” and when he checked from VFS website same status returned courier that was yesterday 3pm, then today at exactly 5pm the courier (2go) delivered my documents and saw my passport with the visa stick on it we’re so delighted.

    First of all thanks to Boss keith and ate Ping for putting up this amazing site, to Joe for the humour and very helpful reply to all my queries, to kimmi for making her vacation here in Phil in time of my submission you’re really such a good friend, to Shirley (paulgee)for the support and prayers super thank you sis, Grace(Gracia143),Empot, Telford, ate Chat (Charwill), Mich, Shelly, (Manong) Scot&Ligaya,Piamed, Sim, Prof Al for the inspiration, (I’m still your fan,hehehe), (gosh seems like I won Oscars.lol), chrys&adam for showing her baby on webcam inspired me a lot to make one soon for my daughter's playmate, to Luna, Judith and to everybody sorry If I missed the other names and to all moderators thank you so much.

    The helpful and informative post, as well as the humours here in the forum made my application easier and successfully granted.

    I believe this success comes with sacrifices coz I need to leave my daughter for a while and living my career here that’s a bit sad, but eventually I can cope up easily having the love and faith in my heart and my future husband in my life will soon be a complete happy family.may God bless and guide us!

    Once again thanks to everyone.
    Don't make promises when you are in JOY. Don't reply when you are SAD.
    Don't take decisions when you are ANGRY. Think twice, Act wise. BE happy.

    It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good to check up once in a while to make sure you haven't lost the things that money can't buy.

    My sweet sis Leah, What a fantastic news!!! I was literally jumping up and down upon learning that you already had the visa. And then I thought, OMGosh I'm in trouble, didn't I promised you something? I haven't forgotten Sis and I will fulfill it like I said. I will be out of the country 16th of Sept til 1st of October, hopefully it won't clash with your wedding day. Again, congratulations and I wish you happiness, good health and fulfillment in your every endeavor. Sooooooooooo looking forward to meeting you in the flesh. Gracie xxx

    I'll wait you guys to meet at the CFO

    As for the wedding date we booked it last May 16th so we're going to move it as soon soon as I arrived in UK to empot yes of course u'r invited (kidding)

    To Ian yes I'll be joining my future husband in Birmingham, we're glad to join the group there

    About the flights,we're considering 1st week of July or earlier as soon as I've done all my concerns here

    To Mrs.Magistrate Gracia my dear thank you, we'll be noted about those dates will schedule it earlier then

    Once again my overwhelming thank you to everyone
