Though we are happy, here is my situation: My wife is pregnant and we are expecting our baby March/April next year. Now hindi ko alam kung ano ang magiging effect nito sa application namin. Pwede na kaya ako mag-start mag-lodge o intayin muna namin lumabas si baby?
By the way, alam na namin na preggy si wife nung nag-submit ako ng EOI; di ko lang in-expect na makaka-receive agad kami ng ITA.
