"IF YOU ASK ANYTHING IN MY NAME, I WILL DO IT".
John 14:14
Loving Lord!The Scripture says that You are aware of all our needs, even before we ask You. So I come to You and place this request at Your loving hands.You know how desperate I am for getting the Visa. My soul has become weary and anxious over this delay in getting the visa .O Lord! Speak in the hearts of the concerned officials, grant me favour in their eyes and help me to get my visa on time so that my purpose is fulfilled. Perfect everything for me my Master. I wait at Your feet and trust in You to make this possible. I know that You will do it for You will never let Your children down. I thank You for listening to my plea! To You alone be all honour and glory. In the sweet name of Jesus I pray.Amen.

Commit to the Lord everything you do. Then your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3 (NIRV)
The longer you have to wait for something, the more you will appreciate it when it finally arrives. The harder you have to fight for something, the more priceless it will become when you achieve it. And the more pain you have to endure on your journey, the sweeter the arrival at your destination. All good things are worth waiting for, and worth fighting for.

Our records indicate that the application was received on 19 September 2013
and process is on- going.
We must state, as you may have been informed, the standard processing
period for this type of application is 90 days (indicative only) in which
period the visa office endeavours to finalise the visa application.
As it is, your application is still within our published service standard
and we stand with our commitment to finalise such process as per
regulation. Applicants are encouraged to lodge their application at least 2
months prior to their intake schedule as we are unable to grant request to
expedite process.
The case officer will be in touch should there be a need for any additional
information/document, or if there are things to be clarified from you or if
a decision is forthcoming.
Thank you for your patience.

@Hi nar_jet ! San ka magaaral? tsaka san state? Bait nila sa AMS no? Sobrang supportive. Yung ibang agencies naniningil ng processing fee. Yung isang kakilala ko siningil DAW sila ng 30k for the processing fee nya.
