Testimonials from Colombia

To Whom It May Concern:

I would like to thank all the Rapid Visa staff for helping us prepare all the necessary documents that I needed to file for my Fiancée in the Philippines. Rapid Visa prepared and file all the documents for me. They filed the K-1 Visa or Fiancée Visa last November of 2013, got approved by December, and forwarded to U.S. Embassy in Manila by USCIS in January 2014. Rapid Visa Office in the Philippines and all the staff helped my fiancée to schedule his Medical Check Up, Interview to the U.S. Embassy and his seminar.

The fiancée visa was approved and released last March on time for my Fiancée's 50th Birthday what a precious gift from GOD. PRICELESS... B He decided to wait for his daughter's graduation before he comes here to joint me. He arrived last June 1, 2014, we get married June 8, 2014 filed the petition by June 19 and petition was approved a month after. Received an appointment last September for the INS interview. Luckily with GOD guidance we pass all the interview for his conditional Green Card last October 14, 2014, after a week we received his actual PERMANENT GREEN CARD. I, myself and my husband are extending our sincere thank you to all the Philippine Rapid Visa Staff especially to WENG, JULIET and JOHBEN for their very honest, friendly, & thoughtfulness helping & guiding my fiancée from start to finished.

To the Colorado office all the staff more power and keep up the good work. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL OF YOU! GOD BLESS!

RapidVisa has been a godsend for me and my fiancé. The fiancé visa process is complex, and I didn't want to do it myself - but there was no way I could afford a lawyer. I wanted help that I could afford, and RapidVisa was there. The service has completely exceeded my expectations. There were specific instructions for every blank on every form - no questions and no worries as to whether I was filling things out correctly. The assembly instructions for the package were comprehensive and so simple. And any time I had any questions at all throughout the whole process, RapidVisa was there to help one on one, by email, chat, and on the phone. I was so happy with the K-1 process that I signed up for the AOS upgrade as soon as my fiancé's visa was approved. We've sent the AOS packet and are just as pleased with the process and support from Rapid Visa as we were when we filed the fiancé packet. I feel that I got more attention and more help from RapidVisa than I would have gotten from a lawyer who would have charged me 10 times as much and cared a lot less about my progress! I strongly recommend RapidVisa - you don't have to go through the process alone or pay through the nose for questionable service. With RapidVisa you pay an affordable fee for an outstanding service that makes a stressful and complicated process much less difficult. -
