Many congrats! Over the months I have been trying to keep up with you and how things were going. It's wonderful to know you're approved!

Thank you, I truly appreciate that. It has seemed like forever since I filed the K-1 but actually was only a year ago yesterday, the 22nd, when I put it in the mail. I was really surprised to have the email from the USCIS this afternoon. I was thinking it was going to be a few more months. It has only been a month since the case arrived at CSC so I am thankful for their quick attention.

This place has been home to me for over a year and a half now and I know I could have never accomplished what has occurred without the support of this site and even more importantly, the support of the members here. I remember the early days when I was trying to figure things out and some of the senior members stepped right up and really gave me a hand up. I have tried to do the same in sharing what I have learned. I am sure I have, at times, published incorrect information but never did so intentionally and would hope that I have been able to make others' journey a less stressful one by sharing what I have learned. I sincerely pray that I never offended anyone and please accept my heart-felt apology if I did.

I hope that everyone here will keep the spirit of this site going as was intended by its founder. I must thank Steve for his insight in coming up with visa journey, it has touched and changed my life forever.

God bless and keep each and everyone of you. And that's the way it was!
