hi LAgirl29

Our marriage is for more than 2 years and 8 months and we spent 9 month together...first three months we spent in dubai wheile I was working there as HR manager at time of our marriage and then I came to pakistan in 2012 and my wife camesecond time from US and spent 3 months together but unfortunately had to leave for badcircumstances of politics here in pakistan as well as bad threats and risks for US citizens and now she came in Nov. 2013 and till today we are together...so it is our 10 month going on and I beleive our marriage is not for US immigration...it is to live together forever no matter it's US, UAE or Pakistan. So I get suprised some times when people tell they spent only few days or months together after marriage and I find it so strange how come people have such patience.

i am in AP for last 7 months and 8th is going on but as soonas we got to know that AP may take longer time we decided to live together and hence I called my wife back to Pakistan immediately and now we are together for last 4 months. it's her 2nd visit to Pakistan and 3rd visit at all. we celebrated our birthdays together, new year together, valentines together, 2 Eids together, 2 Ramadan months together...I have written this all for all the married people to decide better for themselves and stop waiting impatiently for visa. Our marriages are to live for our spouses not for visa and this is my advise to all if you stop thinking like us your visa tensions will be over...thanks and regards ALI & SANDRA

Once again this process has broken us, he went for his oath and fingerprints and once again he was give a green slip and was told he was on ap, if he does not hear anything in 3 months to e-mail them. what kind of joke is this first they request all and go to oath to be told what we alreay knew.

Sugheil Nawaz,

I know you are disappointed and hurt but please do remember that they can issue the visa at anytime and surprise you. Keep praying and stay strong.

hi LAgirl29

Our marriage is for more than 2 years and 8 months and we spent 9 month together...first three months we spent in dubai while I was working there as HR manager at time of our marriage and then I came to pakistan in 2012 and my wife came second time from US and spent 3 months together but unfortunately had to leave for bad circumstances of politics here in pakistan as well as bad threats and risks for US citizens and now she came in Nov. 2013 and till today we are together...so it is our 10 month going on and I beleive our marriage is not for US immigration...it is to live together forever no matter it's US, UAE or Pakistan. So I get suprised some times when people tell they spent only few days or months together after marriage and I find it so strange how come people have such patience.

i am in AP for last 7 months and 8th is going on but as soon as we got to know that AP may take longer time and realized this we decided to be together and hence I called my wife back to Pakistan immediately and now we are together for last 4 months. it's her 2nd visit to Pakistan and 3rd visit at all. we celebrated our birthdays together, new year together, valentines together, 2 Eids together, 2 Ramadan months together...I have written this all for all the married people to decide better for themselves and stop waiting impatiently for visa. Our marriages are to live for our spouses not for visa and this is my advise to all if you START thinking like us your visa tensions will be over...thanks and regards ALI & SANDRA

Hi Ali & Sandra,

It was really nice reading your post. I agree with u, but let me tell u some real facts. I cant say that about all the people but 90% of us in AP r not with their spouses bcoz they have some responsibilities due to which we cant go to pakistan or any other place to stay for more than few wks mnths at a time...when we got married, my husband respected me & appreciated me for that. If it was in my hands, I would never stay away from him for even a day.

My dear aisha, i wish u a very happy anniversary...i hope n pray that u get ur visa issued v soon....n that u stay happy forever wth ur hubby n celebrate all days together...just stay strong n never lose hope...

Hey guys, i m really enjoying all of ur posts regarding our wedding dates n our time spent together ....although some made me cry coz we r so helpless at times...but i guess its giving some of us strength when we see how others are patiently waiting...i m praying for each one of us everyday...best of luck to all of us...

Guys be positive. You dont know but this AP has taken its toll from everyone. No one knows what I am feeling because everyone thinks taht his/her problem is bigger. Remember you and your spouse did, still do and would always love each other.

I have to say, this post makes me quite angry as it comes across as very judgemental. While I am happy for you that you are blessed to be able to spend so much time with your wife while you are in this AP hell, there are many of us that cannot take off from our lives here in the US for months at a time. Many of us (if not all) have jobs and some of us have other obligations (children and family) that we cannot put on hold. If I had the opportunity to work from PK or live in another country with my husband while we wait it out I would do so in a heartbeat. I try to be positive everyday, but there are times where the stress of the seperation gets to us. My husband and I met in 2010 and married in 2011, it is now 2014 and we are still waiting...

we have received an update today as well. 5 Months we didn't receive any update, we started receiving updates from 19,then 21 and 24 feb which is

today i'm really sorry to hear Sugheil nawaz the depression you have been going through, May Allah give you more strength hope & faith, and to

everyone else who have been away and missing their spouses,we have no way to do anything except prayers and hopes,

just be patient i myself been part of this immigration process since 2011, first K-1 & now CR-1,

i believe the more you think of it and more you checking updates constantly it can stress you out, just keep yourself busy check your

update once in a week,also sometimes frequent updates might give you some hopes, it's not only with you its with everyone else out there

May Allah give you all patience and get you outta this ap asap ameen please pray for us as well.

Cinderalla My interview was on 20 September 2013, you are forgetting something they are doing all these background checks to secure their

country as you are aware of the current situation of Pakistan, so it's their job to determine each case from distinctive angel, so don't worry hum sub

bebas hai kuch nai kar sakte siwai Allah pak ki madad ke,
