Very good points! Coupled with it being apparently the busiest time of the year for applications. Not an ideal context at all.Originally Posted by benb
Pia was having cookery classes and was also planning to have some cosmetology classes but a couple of recent events have left us a bit concerned about her venturing into the city proper currently.Its best for your wife to keep occupied to kill time, if she is not working at the moment. My wife (Jassmine) is spending her time mostly reading. She applied on May 19th, actually missed her appointment time and ended up queuing for hours on the same day. Jassmine mentioned that the queue outside the VFS application centre starts at 3am. Unbelievable!
Where in Mindanao is Jassmine from; Pia is from Surigao City? I will be flying to meet her also as soon as her visa is granted. I was there 2 days ago and hated to leave her behind yet again; I know you felt the same with Jassmine.We got engaged early Jan and married in early April. The Marriage certification took about 1 month to be processed too.
I'll be off to meet her in Manila as soon as her VISA is ready. She is currently in Mindanao.
Where are you flying from? I'm in Leeds and use KLM but it's pricey at the moment - I paid £1,200 when I went last week. Leeds is convenient for me though. I am hoping that i can use my Frequent Flyer miles when I return. I understand though that Schiphol is about to double its airport tax.I'm looking around for good flight deals. Any pointers is much appreciated.
I presume you'll be off to meet your lady too when her VISA is ready.
Best Wishes!
Manila to Butuan was about 6,700 PHP and from Surigao to Manila was approx. 3,300 PHP. I will go back to Surigao as I want to see all the extended family again and to say bye bye along with Pia, as we dont yet know when we will return, although I would hope within 2 years. But who knows di ba?
Pia and I wish Jassmine and yourself the very best with your application!
