Hey there everyone, a friend told me about this site and this is my first time exploring it; but she thought it may be useful for me and a good place to go to meet others in similar situations as myself.

So who we are...

Me -- a 34 year old girl US Citizen now living in the Miami / Ft. Lauderdale area of Florida...had lived in Barbados for a few years with my old company and met my now boyfriend of 4 years....

He is a 40 year old guy born in Guyana but living in Barbados -- and his dad and sister are up in the US.

We are trying to get him up here to be together...and trying to figure things out...

so that is the short story.

The short answer is to become engaged, you file the I-129f petition with the USCIS, and get the ball rolling. The instructions and forms are in this forum. Plan to wait 6-8 months. Good luck.
