Thanks to GOD, Our Journey is about to end. We are about to close this long chapter in our lives. After a deportation back in 2006, the IR1 Visa for my wife and IR2 visa for our 2 year old baby was approved on Sept 22, 2010.

I was helped by GOD in many ways. However, there's something I will never forget: GOD used someone here on visa journey to make all this happen: bocajr27, member of visa journey, not only he guided us throughout this difficult process, he gave us HOPE.

bocajr27, GOD used you. We prayed to the LORD for help and HE used you.

Thank you GOD. Thank you bocajr27.

Hey,

Im empress that your waiver after being deported was approved so fast. We were also deported last year but im going back to the states next month with no problems since i left the states under age. However, My dads sister filled out a relative petition for him and it got approved on nov of last year. Do you think he would need a waiver to go back to the states? Was it hard to fill out the waiver or did you need help from a lawyer.

Any advice would be great.

Thanks

Hi, why were you placed under AP and twas for how long, as I am under the same conditon too for my wife, and what do i do during this period?

THanx

Turboman;

You could be placed in AP for any amount of reasons. In our case, I believe we were placed in AP in order for the Consulate to confirm the elegibility of my wife's visa after her deportation order just 8 months prior. As for how long someone can be in AP it all depends on the Embassy and how quickly they get the information they're looking for. We were in AP for 30 days. Every week (at least once a week) I would write an e-mail to the consulate asking for an update on our case. If I were you I would start there.

Good Luck and God Bless

Edward;

Thank you for your kind words. One of the greatest joys a man can have in this world in knowing that he was an instrument of God at some point in his life. I'm happy I was able to help you and your family and even happier that you guys are back together as a family here in the states. May God bless you and your family this Christmas and enjoy the present he has given you....the unconditional Love of your family and the priceless time you get to spend with them.

God Bless & Merry Christmas
