Oh my god, I am SO happy to finally find a site where I can TALK to people about this, without having to try and decipher lawyer terms.

Hello, I'm an Australian. Married my man here in Queensland last year in July. Took him till December to finally file it though in Texas x.X Apparently it's a big secret too because he wont tell me any information unless I ask him for it, and since I dont know what to ask him, I have no information. bah! men hehe

Of course, that hasn't helped my frustration. Only last week I found out about K-3. It got my hopes up a lot, and his, but I dont think its the savior it's made out to be. It doesn't help that 'information' sites about visas leave out about 70% of the information... like medical and police reports, affidavits of support, fees for said reports (if you dont know you need these forms, why would you want to know the price? Argh!)

These sort of things I would like to know. If I can only get my medical done in Sydney, I would like to know. Plane flights and money all have to taken into account (I live 2 hrs drive from the closest city, let alone capital )

Anyway, nice way to introduce myself, a Hi with a rant Nice to finally find a place I can get REAL information that I can understand without needing a degree in Lawyer Speak

Welcome to VJ and best of luck on your journey.

Visa Journey ("VJ") seems to be the place where all the "know how" is, regarding immigrant information.
I hope you can find all the help you need right here.

So, are you really going from "down under" to "down there" (Arkansas)?
If so, you'all got a-lot-a learnin' to do regardin' the way we'all talk down here in Arkensaw.

Best wishes to you, and don't be shy to ask around for help!

hehe, I've been to Arkansas a few times, and I do know, and have been, to... Australian Way? Life? Some aussie store out in the middle of whoopwhoop there owned by an aussie.

And Arkansas should be renamed Arkiesaw anyway hehe

I'm finding a LOT of information right now, been reading the aussie link StelleR mentioned. Medical guys, police reports, when to get them done.

I'm just getting worried now because I haven't heard anything yet, and husband hasn't told me jack either x.X and I wont be able to talk to him for another 2 days. The suspence, it kills ><

WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Im not alone any more hahahahahaha I have another CR-1'er You do realise we are a rare species amongst aussies doing DCF, K-3 and K-1. Shame you filed already....you could of looked at the DCF process. Im not complaining......I have a buddy now
