Hello again,
I was doing some reading and I thought I would pass this on to anyone interested. Are you tired of high phone bills or having to use calling cards to talk to your loved ones that are thousands of miles away? Do they have high speed Internet available? Well you can do what I did for my wife. I bought a packet 8 ( www.packet8.net ) Internet phone and subscribed it here and then sent it to her in the Philippines. They have several different calling plans available. I choose the freedom unlimited. Total cost with her Internet connection and the phone service is around $55 a month. If your like us you could spend that in one week talking. Here is the beauty of doing this. If she or him has other family and friends living here in the states, Canada or a few other countries, she can call them for free. Here is the bad, if she calls numbers in her own country you will be charged international rates. Your husband or wife will have a local number for your area, in my case its area code 208. After your wife/husband gets to the states you could keep paying for the connection and phone service so your husband wife can talk to family when ever they want. I think this will help with home sickness. Just about any VOIP (voice over internet protocol) provider, packet 8, vonage sun rocket or many others that are available should work. I know that packet8 and vonage will work for sure.

I don't work for packet 8, I am not a spammer I just thought i would pass this info on so you all can save money.

Admins, sorry if this post is out of place and feel free to move it as needed, I just posted it here as this is the main forum I come to and the cr1 takes so long that this could actually save money for people.

If you need any further details on this feel free to ask me in this thread or send me a im.

I have a question and am to lazy to search it out whistling.gif . I am sending my I-130 out tomorrow, does all my copies need to be notarized? I say copies cause the guide on this forum say they can be copies.
Thanks and good luck to all.

It will work anywere, its all done over the internet. I will add that you can call any landline or cell phone in the US or Canada and the other countries listed for your calling plan. All thats needed is a high speed internet connection.

It works any country as rmncm said. you will only need high speed internet connection. there are cheap Voip services available for example i only have the State plan therefore my husband could only call NYC area code numbers and is $15 a month including taxes and i call him anytime i want and he does it too. and you don't need a computer to be on just internet conection.

Acually with that you need a computer. and a telephone. I know the packet 8 you get a phone/router all in one unit.
