Thanks Morre. I got in touch with them too. And it seems like their prices for airfreight are reasonable. I thought to go by oceanfreight (because it's cheaper), but they have minimum volumes, and mine is only 1/2 to 1/3 of that and prices go up to 2000 without insurance, just from a port here to the port in the US.

Orbitz? Will check that out Alex, thanks. And sadly no packet yet ... I'll blame it on the strikers ... ;)

Oh I've been ready for a month ... lol. He already sent me his stuff in August (including the affidavit ...) and he just sent me his most recent paymentstubs ...

And everything else is done too since most papers are valid for a couple of months here. I can't wait to reach the next level in the game ... :whistle:

Sounds like it's a time to start a Broke far Broke club... November one-way ticket from Ukraine runs for $1,500 :blink: At least you guys can get a decent shipment company in Europe, not so much here. Luckily Dave already moved one suitcase for me during his last return trip.

Sandra, check out Orbitz, Expedia and Kayak. Those are the ones I've used before and got some pretty good deals ($365 one-way New York - Kiev last December). Just play around with dates to get a cheepest price.

So glad to see you guys getting closer to the US smsmileys7.gif

I don’t know how it is in Belgium, but here in Sweden you can pay a fee and you get insurance true your company that will cover any expenses if you would have a car accident etc… if you would have to visit a doctor in America you will not pay anything at all, just show them the paper from your insurance company!

I don't think we have something like that. When you leave here, you have to go to the cityhall to give notice you're moving (international), and unsubscribe your social security. Don't think there's a possibility to take any insurance with you for a year after leaving the country.

Morning guys!!!

Sandra, thanks a lot! We do need those positive vibes today! How are things with you?

Yevgenij, when you get a chance please fill in your timeline. Many peeps will appreciate you getting of the list, lol :) How did your girl take the news? By the way, looks like Kiev embassy sped up interview wait time a bit, so good news for you two :).

I need my approval this week simply cause I am running out of movies to watch, lol :) Why Blockbuster doesn't work in Ukraine?

Oh, thought I'll share our USCIS calling experience with you guys. So, we decided to talk to them last night and... like I predicted: "We received your 129(F)... (word for word from the website) and than they told us "USCIS still has 112 days to provide you with answer... " :wacko:

I can't find a link to edit my timeline... She took it very well, couldn't fall asleep till 3. Woke up and went online to find info for her next step...

Ana, I am not going to tell you to relax. I could not. It will come soon, I hope.

Jen, Glad that you liked the Ale House. Carolina Pale Ale is a good one. Made a few miles away in Holly Springs. Did you like the food.

I am going to need an extra seat to take my liver home on the plane. Taking 8 guys salmon fishing in Lake Michigan in a few minutes. I am sure there will be no comsumption of adult beverages. Too late.

Nat, I hope that you are feeling better now. I want an approval out of you too.
