Hey guys,

Well I am really stressing right now...Adrian is giving me a hard time and I wanted you guys prospective on the whole thing....1st I really do feel bad for everything I have done to him and he thinks that I did it on purpose...but he has been talking to a lawyer at a church that he has been going to and the lawyer was telling him he would handle his case for free if he wanted to take me to court...the lawyer said he heard of a case where the woman was arrested because she brought the man to the US and then didnt marry him??? then another case he told me that a woman was issued by the court to pay the male immigrant $50,000??? have any of you heard anything like that???

I called the USCIS yesterday and they said that as far as they are concerned that if he stays here after the 90 days then I am not responsible for him and he becomes illegal, they also told me to write to the Jamaica embassy and tell them the situation....I sent them and e-mail last night and wrote a letter that I will fedex to the embassy tomorrow......I am really stressing...I know what I did to him was very wrong being that he quit his job to come and be here with me, but as I see it we all take chances in life....he is also asking me to just go ahead and marry him so he can stay here and wont have to go back to JA and that we wont have to live together....I told him absolutly not that that would be fruad and he comes back with how does he know that this whole thing was not a fraud...I cannot believe that he could even prove that it was fraud...I had the wedding all planned, dress bought, rings I bought, invitations sent out and lost $3,000 on the ceremony and reception site.....

Sorry I am just venting here and would like to hear all options good or bad.

Thank you gals are a great bunch and I miss you.

Wow this is the thrid thread since I have been on this board. Who are the big talkers in here. Well I am off to tourch myself in the tanning both. I went 3 times last week and burned myself to death. I was only in the machine for 4 mins go figure. Everyone told me to go tan cause I am so white whoopie. If I burn again I am staying my true self. My honey said to even try it cause he likes Dark Women and he started laughing . Then I am off to the evil gym. Anna great weight loss what the heck u doing? I have only lost 21 since October.

Joanna, I really can't give you any legal advice. However I'm sure that you're not the only one who had a change of plans after their SO came on a K-1 visa. Maybe they're just using scare tactics, as I'm sure that you had no legal contract to marry Adrian. What grounds was this woman arrested on? And how can he say that you were committing fraud? However you should under no circumstances marry him just so that he can stay in the US. I would be more concerned with what USCIS has to say than what Adrian and his "attorney" has to say. This is just my opinion as I have no legal training.

I wish the best for the both of you.

a little less than 2 days before I leave for my trip. I am just hoping all my family and guest get a long for a week. 3 more days of work and no more work until the end of August Take care all!!

Wow your time is coming up fast!! Are you going to JA in 2 days?

Edited to say I think you meant 2 weeks but I don't blame you for being so excited!! . Is everything all set Jax?

Try not to worry about your family and guests getting along. It's Jamaica mon; no problem B)

JoJo -- Try not to stress yourself out too much. I don't think the advice he is getting from the lawyer is correct. You just need to make sure you document everything. You can only do what you can do.....

Don't be a stranger. I have had to start "picking" on Elizabeth in your absence :lol:

Hey Everyone Thanks for all the well wishes

Here's how it went: We got there at around 9am our appointment wasn't unitl 1pm so we sat, and we sat and at 1pm they called aur name It was pretty srtaight foward. They asked us all the question on the application, only under oath. It lasted all of 15-20 min or so. He asked if we were ready to be married for the rest of our life, If I was sure of what I was doing, reminding me that I am responsible for him for ten years, even if we divorce, He can come back and sew me for support. Why he felt compelled do so I don't know. He aksed D if he worked, had ever been to the US twice. When did we meet and where. I thought to my self damn didn't you hear him the first time Followed by a are you sure you have never filed a petition to come to the US before.(Heres where I start to worry) He asked for proof of relationship and I gave him what I had. He said that what I submitted should be plenty then the big BUT!!!!He goes on to say that there is an A-number in D's name from way back in the 1970's. We were like he wasn't born until 1975 Then he says well, Who ever filed this petition. Filed it for a person with his same name, same mother and fathers name ect. D swears that the only petetion he's ever filed was for a vistors visa 10 years ago. He was Denied, cause he did not have strong enough ties to the counry. Then he ask if he has any brothers or sisters over here and he replied no. My big question is why has this just come up now. Kingston dosen't just let stuff like that fly by Anys ways He said that our approval is pending the reviewing of the file...they were expecting to have it before our interview but it had not arrived as of yet, he expects it in two weeks, but we may not hear anything for ninety days. This makes no sense at all!!! I must say I was not expecting this. I don't believe it either, I feel like something else is up. For now we have more waiting

Also aksed D what he did in his spare time all day????

Hey Jojo - like earlier stated I wish the best for both of you and will keep you in my prayers. Never heard of any such thing happening but look into it just to be sure.

Dee - what a sinting! You will get approved, no worries. This is just a small obstacle.

Welcome back Kim and Duane!

There is nothing you can do now but wait

Your hubby was born 5 years after the alien number was "issued" so that automatically rules out fraud

You've done everything by the book to get him here

(From what I read) you've basically been approved, it's just pending the clear up of this mess with Kingston

It's better to have him here with you and have the interview behind you...no worries my girl

Rhonda-working 7 days a week in just too much. Do your supervisors work 7 days a week too? Are you working more than 8 hours a day?

I am a supervisor and my employees are working so they think I should be here too. Even if someone else could cover - it makes no sense. I am the only production supervisor on 2nd shift so I will have to be here 7 days a week There are 3 supervisors on day shift so they can take turns working the weekends. I have no one to take turns with Most of my employees work between 10 and 12 hours a day during the week. Luckily, I usually slip out of here after 8 or 9 hours. BUT, I still dont' want to work 7 days a week.
