we sent out the K1 petition at the 3rd July 2009 and then after that been through a very very depressing process of waiting and delays. We got congressman and lawyer involved for a lot of times, throughout this whole process because for some reasons, our petition kept being delayed and left on the shelf. Nobody liked it, I guess. But finally, after going through all these, finally we got the interview date on 1st April, 2010! Yeah, April fool! The interviewer was not really that friendly, she seemed to have a bad day so was kinda sarcastic in a sense. Though, what matter the most was, we made it! We got approved and received K1 visa on 2nd April, 2010. Finally....

Seriously, I hope that, the next coming AOS won't be this bad. I pray hard!

So for all of you out there, who are waiting, Best of the luck!

warmest regards,

Season.
