hi! I also lodged my settlement visa application with dependant last April 01 and still waiting for a text message for our visas. fingers crossed. hopefully everything will be alright. I keep on going to different churches and pray for our visas to be granted soon as I also need to know the decision of the embassy before the school year come so I will know if I need to enroll my daughter in school or not. Next month is the start of the school year here in the Phils.
