Hello everyone!! have a nice day to you all!!
It's been a long time i am not here active and online since i was here in Devon. i am here on day march 29, 2012.
I share to you all my experience in manila immigration. when i was at MIAT1, for 8 hours before i check in. the KLM airlines give me a form to fill up about my details to live in UK and my details also. after on it, fall on line and waiting my turn to call and to get my boarding pass. before i get my boarding pass. to many question to ask. if these is my first time visa? how long i intend to live the country? if these is my new passort? i bet nervous and scared that time. when i get my boarding pass with connecting flights. i pass straight with no look behind and a bit happy. when i am in Terminal Fee i paid only 550pesos. then after go straight to immigration. very hard, i thought everything is OK. coz i had a visa already, but i was wrong. i though i was refused on the immigration. coz they ask my supporting documents of my sponsor, but it was on my luggage. i only said honestly and i am very true, that all my supporting documntes is on my case, i have only here photocopy of passport and a photocopy of credit card of my sponsor. i was there for 5 minutes and then officer said, next time you bring all details of your sponsor. i go straight and no look behind i was nervous. coz 2 filipino had visa and refused.
then i fell good when i am on klm chairs, waiting my flight. then check in. we have transit on Taiwan coz had a trouble engine. an wait for 2 hours, coz they repaired. we all are waiting. and finally land in the amsterdam airport. oh!! so hard waiting for my next flight looking all monitors of my flight coz we are all delayed hours. then finally i was check in, little bit nervous coz very strict before to check in plane.. coats, shoes, water, alcohol,remove.belt. then when i am in winglets, had a UK Border form given and another fill up again. they have some question on it that hard for me to understand, then from Ghana a mother and a daughter who set beside me, they help me. coz i ask. people there not care. and then after those tricky moments i was on the heathrow airport, then go straight to UK Border Agency. and ask again all about me and my partners. and then finally i was out in arrival area, and then i see my Darling waiting for me.... i thought its very hoot coz had a sun same in the the PI, but i was wrong, its very cold. wind cold even sun is out.. but anyway after long flights ad hard times. we are now happy together and spending time each day.
