I am thankful to her because she is willing to share her story with our fellow citizens who want to travel to Japan. Here's her story:
Overflowing sadness and disappointment. That’s what I felt when I received the result on my first attempt to apply in a visa country – Japan.
All the relative documents were submitted to
Reli Tours Dusit Thani branch (birth certificate, ITR, COE, photo, visa
application, bank certificate, flight and hotel bookings, and schedule of stay). We were planning to have our 8 days honeymoon in
Tokyo, Japan
Aug 30, 2019
After double-checking my requirements, I
immediately went to Reli Tours Dusit Thani to submit my application. The staff
assisted me and checked all the details. Upon checking my visa application form, she informed me that she will erase my purpose of travel from honeymoon to
tourist.
I told her if erasures are possible. She said yes.
September 5, 2019
We waited for the result and was excited to
claim my visa, I was confident because I already travelled to several countries
in Asia. Upon receiving the bad news, I never felt so depressed and at the same
time, I don’t know how I can accept the result of a denied visa. I immediately
called my fiancé and was telling him that my Japan Visa application was denied.
He cannot
believe it and he asked me several times about the result given to me by Reli Tours. This
is our much-awaited moment, our Japan Trip. we wanted to celebrate our honeymoon after we
get married.
After a week of research from the internet
and asking for help from social networking sites
We decided to take the risk and
apply for a tourist visa in Friendship Tours. I initially called them to ask if
they are still accepting Japan Visa re-applications. The girl that I spoke
with was well-knowledged and assisted me with additional documents that I have to submit for the second application as a tourist again. She said they will process these but there is no guarantee.
Because of our friends and
people who gave me Japan travel advices on DIY Travel Philippines, Japan for dummies PH and
the blog post that I read in sarisaringisip.blogspot.com, we gained a little hope and became determined.
Before we did the reapplication, we
carefully analyzed what went wrong and what additional documents must be given
or letters that will make my application stronger.
Moreover, we always pray and ask for guidance
from the Lord. We also thought of having a Plan B honeymoon destination just in
case I will not be accepted on my reapplication.
3rd week of September
We
re-applied in Friendship Tours submitting the same documents. This time, I
applied for a visa with a guarantor which is my fiancé. I just submitted his bank
certificate, our prenuptial photos, wedding invitation, and marriage license as
proof of our relationship.
After waiting for only 3-4 working days, I was
told that I can now get my passport.
I was very anxious and tense at the
same time. I could walk normally into their office but deep inside, I was very
nervous. I just told myself that I will not expect anything from the result.
The girl in front of me just got denied which made me felt more worried. Now, it’s my turn to claim mine. The guy just handed me all the additional documents
we submitted and let me sign in the receiving form. ........Then, he just said
congratulations!
I became emotional and even cried when I saw my single entry Japan Visa. I cannot believe it! God answered all my prayers! Clients from that the agency noticed that I cried they also congratulated me.
