Got my visa

[rands]

Hi Rhea! Congratulations to you!!! I'm really glad that you got it. I hope you could share with us how you presented your documents to the embassy. I am quite confused how to put the docs in such a way that the embassy will like it. Did you use folder (what type of folfer) and then just clipped the docs inside all together? I know it sounds too basic but your sharing will surely give me some idea.

Thank you and congrats!!!

Hi Rands,

My wife Rhea will give you more details but i think they just took everything out of my wifes folder and but it an an envelope. It is more important that you have plenty of evidence than how it is presented. Overload the Embassy with plenty of proof

Hi John,

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, your sharing is of help to those who are still in the process of applying for visa. by the way, how about the pictures? Did you put them in an album or just paste them in a bond paper and put caption?

My relationship is turning one year this coming May and have met twice already...recently, i made a visit again and since i have come to know of pete's site, i have been gathering letters and more evidences. Hope that it will be ok too when we lodge the application within the month.

Can you give me a bit background of your relationship too? just a little idea to compare....you can just imagine the stress so i know you understand how i feel.

Thanks john!

Hi Rands,

I will ask Rhea to reply reference the photos as although between us we gathered up all the evidence it was Rhea who took care of putting it together.

It is understandable that you will probably go through all the emotions that we went through but the truth is and Pete keeps saying it that as long as you provide the evidence that the embassy are looking for then it will be fine.

It is as i have said on the forum before a great time to be applying i believe for both a spouse & Fiancee visa with the new ukvacs in place.

Both Rhea & I met in April last year, how we felt about each other was apparent very quickly. As Christians we had been praying about meeting the right person and after a short time we knew that time had come so we started keeping all your yahoo chats, phone cards, receipts of places we went & stayed. We planned the wedding for last December and so had all that evidence for the file also. Make sure you keep whats left of your plane tickets and get loads of photos. As my evidence of support i have my own home although i do not live in it but my father does. I just started a job last December which i thought might go against me because i had been out of work for 7 months so had got into debt with some credit cards because of my mortgage, trips to Philippines and of course the wedding. I was only able to give one wage slip plus another one from a part time job i had just taken on also but they did not hold that against me. I also borrowed a couple of grand from a friend so that my bank balance looked healthy and i have no doubt this was a big help.

If i can think of anything else i will post it here also..

It will all come good mate and if i can be of any help let me know..

Hello,

Wow you are actually in Lisburn my home city. I live and work right near the centre. Rhea is from Ozamiz City which is only a one night ferry ride away.
I am meeting Rhea in Cebu in just over 3 weeks time where we will stay for a few days. There is a friend of mine who is now engaged to a girl from Cebu and he is living in Lisburn also. When do you go back home? It would be good to meet up for sure and you can meet Rhea sometime here also as she will be moving her at the end of April..
