Hi, we are just starting the walk to Mordor immigration process.

Our situation is we have been together 8 years, married for 5, met and living in Western Australia.

Jess is the US citizen (well dual national now), I'm the Australian.

More here for the info at the moment but will post any questions we have along the way.

The paper work looks ok, we may have issues with support documents as Jess has been here since 18 and never filed a US tax return.

Ah the web we weave.

Anyway, back to reading the forums,

Darren & Jess.

We have been together nearly 9 years and married just over 3.
