I'm sorry that I did not write to you right away. I did not know what
to do. I did not want to ask for your help. But probably I can not do
without your help. I told you that I have money. That I earn well. And
it is true. I thought I had enough money to travel to you. But it
turned out that to get to you, you need money to prove that I'm not
poor. This money for living and eating. I did not know about it (((
I'll tell you in order. In the morning by 8 am, I came to the embassy.
I was not the first. There were already a few girls, and they were
waiting for the line. I was the third one. After a short wait I went
to the visa issuing office. I was asked a few questions. They asked
where I was going. I said that I'm going to my groom. But I was told
that I can not make a guest visa. I can only ask for a tourist visa.
The minimum initial period is 1 month. This is the only visa I can ask
for. I agreed. After that, I was asked a few more questions. And they
approved my visa. I was happy!!! I was told that my visa was approved
on December 23. I was very happy. I did not think that everything
would be so fast. But I was told that I need to buy plane tickets from
them here. I agreed to buy a ticket. But I was told that I had to buy
a ticket there and back. I have to buy 2 tickets. This is so that I
could go back. Because I have a tourist visa. And they need to be sure
that I'm coming back. I agreed and bought the tickets. The tickets
were very expensive. I bought 2 tickets at a price of 780 dollars. It
is expensive. But here such prices. Probably they earn their pocket
(((My ticket is booked for December 23. December 23 at 19:20 pm, I
have to get on the plane. Are you going to meet me at the airport?
I was very happy. But then the girl who sold me the ticket she told
me. She just killed me ((((
She said that in order for me to be issued a visa, I must have money
with me. This money must prove that I can support myself in your
country. This is the money I need to have with me so that I can now
issue a visa. The visa is approved. But in order for me to give it, I
have to show them the money. I have to have 50 dollars a day. For
accommodation and meals. This proves that I can live, buy food, pay
for housing. If I do not show them this money, I will not be given a
visa. And my passport and visa is canceled. I said that I did not know
about it. She said it was the law. This is the rule for everyone who
travels to your country. And without this money they will not let me.
I said that I'm coming to you. I said that my fiance is waiting for me
there. But she said that my tourist visa. And that there is no other
way. My visa is for 30 days. This is the minimum initial visa. And
that's why I have to have 1500 dollars with me. I cried. I asked
whether it is possible to make the visa stay shorter ?! But I was told
that no. This is the standard visa for the first time. I said that I
do not have that kind of money. It's a lot of money. She said that I
would not worry. She said that money is needed only for entry. And
that this money will remain with me. She advised me to ask for your
help. That I will not spend money. I'll give you money as soon as I
get to you. I'll explain again. Money is only needed to prove that I
am able to support me in your country. I will not spend a cent. I'll
give you your money as soon as you meet me at the airport. I did not
want to ask for your help. I tried to find money myself. But I could
not find it. I was afraid to ask you. I'm very embarrassed. So I did
not write to you right away. But I have no other choice. Everything is
ready for travel. I am in Kiev. I got a visa. I repeat I send you a
copy of my passport. The visa will be given to me as soon as I show
the money. I booked and paid for the plane tickets. My ticket back and
forth. But if we want, I'll stay with you forever. I have to get on
the plane on December 23 at 19:20 pm. We still have three days. I
still have money left. I have 550 dollars. I thought this money would
be enough. But I miss 950 dollars. I'm asking for your help. I ask
that you send me $ 950. I ask that you send me this money today or
tomorrow. I know that this is huge money. But I will not spend this
money. I'll give it to you as soon as I come to you. I have no one
else to ask. I can only rely on you.
I asked how you can send it to me. I was told that the best way is
Western Union. This is a branch office of money transfer. You must
send money to my name (as in the passport) I sent a copy of the
passport. And I can quickly get your money here. You must make me a
copy of the transfer receipt or write the information in an email and
send it to me. And I can quickly get your money. Please do it as soon
as possible. I will wait for your answer tomorrow. I'm very tired and
I'm going home. I lost a lot of nerves and I want to rest. I'm sorry
that I need to ask for your help. I wanted to come myself. But I have
no other choice. Without your help, I can not come. Although I have
everything ready. Tickets are bought. The visa is approved. But I need
your help. Please send me money. I will return it as soon as I arrive.
I will wait for your answer tomorrow. I really hope for your help. I
dream to come to you and celebrate Christmas and New Year with you.
Please help me come.
I await your answer tomorrow. Love you.
Yours, Svitlana.
