Testimonials from South Africa

I STARTED WORKING WITH RAPID VISA IN JULY OF 2013 AFTER MY HUSBAND AND I MARRIED IN JUNE OF 2013. INSTANTLY THEY GUIDED US EACH STEP OF THE WAY. BY OCTOBER OF 2013 WE HAD GOT ALL OF OUR PAPERWORK TOGETHER AND ON OCTOBER 1ST OF 2013 RAPID VISA SENT OUR PETITION OFF TO THE USCIS FOR APPROVAL.

IN MARCH OF 2014 WE GOT OUR APPROVAL LETTER AND WERE VERY EXCITED. ONCE AGAIN, WE CONTACTED RAPID VISA FOR GUIDANCE AS WE WERE LOST AND DID NOT KNOW WHAT WE WHERE GOING TO DO NEXT TO GET MY HUSBAND FROM NIGERIA HERE IN THE USA WITH OUR FAMILY.RAPID VISA REPRESENTATIVES IMMEDIATELY TOOK CHARGE AND GUIDED US WITH THE CORRECT PAPERWORK TO FILE, THE CORRECT PRICES OF THE FORMS NECESSARY TO BE FILED, AND PROOF READ EACH DOCUMENT BEFORE IT WAS SUBMITTED TO ENSURE THEY WERE COMPLETE AND ACCURATE. AS WE SENT MY AFFIDVAIT OF SUPPORT AND NECESSARY FORMS TO THE NVC THE LONG WAIT TRULY BEGAN.

IN MAY OF 2015 MY HUSBANDS CR1 VISA WAS APPROVED THRU THE NVC AND A INTERVIEW WAS SCHEDULED FOR JUNE 11TH,, 2015. THE INTERVIEW DATE WAS CHANGED TO JULY 2015 BY THE NVC BUT HE WAS APPROVED IN 10 MINUTES OR LESS AND CAME TO THE UNITED STATES IN AUGUST OF 2015. 🙂

THANK YOU RAPID VISA FOR ALWAYS HAVING THE ANSWERS, FOR ALL THE ENCOURAGEMENT AND SUPPORT, AND MOST OF ALL DEALING WITH ME AND MY STRESSED OUT MOMENTS OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS OF WAITING TO BE UNITED HERE IN THE USA WITH MY HUBBY.

THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR CONTINUOUS SUPPORT AND THE BLESSINGS YOU HAVE BROUGHT OUR FAMILY!! I WOULD ENCOURAGE AND REFER ANYONE TO YOUR COMPANY FOR ASSISTANCE.
