Marlita,
That was a really nice post. I think its so cute how you and your SO exchange video diaries. It reminds me of me and my hubby (especially when we first met) and how we would send texts and pictures back and forth. To some people it seems so corny, but when the person you love is so far away, its the only thing you have.
"
You two should just remind yourselves that you are each others rock, and life jacket....whn one is falling, the other has strength to lift you up. Depend on each other, emotionally as husband and wife. I think that will help create a strong bond and foundation that will make this time apart a bit more easier and make your lives together that more beautiful." This was just beautifully put. Oh, I am getting so emotional...once again.
~Miss Jones
Oh thanks Miss Jones. Yeah, text messaging is how we built our relationship. We take pictures, put them in a MS Word doc and send them through email. Its an easy way to share lots of photos and we can add a caption underneath each photo. Creative ways to be with one another, thats all we have right now.

At least they'll have no doubt we're genuine lol....
Funny thing was, they asked him what his full name and birthdate was at the medical, reminded me of immigration sometimes when we're coming back from Jamaica.....

Dee...are you guys still waiting for the green card??? If so.....I might suggest writing to your local congressman and senators office. I also called USCIS and asked for a supervisor.....I filed an over 90 day inquiry.....I am not sure if this actually helped us but we got the approval about 4 weeks after and received a letter from USCIS last week responding to my inquiry and said they expedited processing and approved the case!!! SO.....I think this worked...they are afraid of getting sued....many folks are filing lawsuits against USCIS due to the LONGGGG waits.....

It's okay... I understand how you are feeling..I must admit I wasn't expecting it so soon. I looked at my VJ timeline on Monday and the estimate went from May 18th to June 11th...and I freaked out. I couldn't get the nerves up to tell my fiance that the timeline COULD be longer. And the one day I didn't check the status...I get the email.
I said all that to say...just relax..and don't be discourage the NOA2 is coming.

It is definitely good to be there. What better proof. My then fiance thought the same way but at the first window he whispered to me that he was glad I was there.
Unless you can stay for a couple weeks after the interview don't plan on him flying back with you. There is no rhyme or reason as to how quickly they get the visa. Could be 5 days, couple be 3 weeks...

She already has 4 from my sister. Guess she's gonna have to wait a little bit longer for me, since I'm not even in the same country as my man, makes it little difficult to start giving her grand babies.
