ano mangyayari if di ko isasama sa application ang spouse and kids ko? made-deny ba ang application ko?
Salamat po sa mga makakatulong. sa mga tumaas ang kilay, medyo personal reason po kasi and agreed decision na din namin ng spouse ko.
kung may related topic, pahingi na din po ng link.
Salamat ng madami.
