Nung sinagot ko, kinumusta ako agad so lalo akong kinabahan.
Pero ang sabi nya, VISA GRANT na daw kami and need to plan for the big move.
Ngyon lang nag-sisink-in sa akin ang news kasi parang nananaginip lang ako.
Patience is really a vitue. In God's perfect time, all will be possible.
Thank you for the team's support sa mga rant ko, medyo ako ang negative sa tagal ng paghihintay pero eto na!!!
Sunod sunod na ang grants sa team. Good Luck and keep our faith.

Sis @aikee888, thank you. For sure sunod sunod na yan. Nga pala, ang sabi ni agent, ang GSM Brisbane is madalang maghandle ng Visa 189 and 190 kaya medyo bumagal pero hindi daw ibig sabihin na hindi na nagpprocess. Usually daw kasi GSM Adelaide ang mga ngawa nun. Kapit ka lang malapit na din ang sa inyo.
