Hello all,

I am very glad I found this site. I've first met my Fiancee, Katya, a year ago last Friday, through a Russian dating site. The first week of May I traveled over to Vladivostok; but I could only spend a week with her and her son. While far too short, it was still an incredible experience. We just started the VISA process; we are only on the I-129F part. She is having troubles remembering all of the places she's worked over the past 5 years. :)

I am very grateful for the sheer volume of guides, FAQs, and personal experiences on this site. It is very comforting to know so many have been through this same process. I wish I had found this website sooner, as I could have had Katya searching for the proper information weeks ago instead of just starting. I am quite anxious to have the first batch of paperwork submitted. :P

Hello and welcome!

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.

WARNING: Phrases in this post may sound meaner than they were intended to be. Read the Adjudicator's Field Manual from USCIS

"Our Wedding Prayer"

Lord,help us to remember when we first met,and the strong love that grew between us.

To work the love into practical things so nothing can divide us

Grant us a Love that grows stronger with each passing year.

We ask for words both kind and loving

and for hearts always ready to ask forgiveness as well as to forgive.

Guide us to overcome every challenge

and keep our dreams pure to each other always.

Dear Lord,we put our marriage into Your hands.Amen

If your heart acquires strength, you will be able to remove blemishes from others without thinking evil of them.
