WE filed K-1 visa 6-22-2012. Wife entered USA on K-1 on 4-24-2013, married 6-22-13. Filed AOS, 7-2-13.,..,.,we are now finished at least for awhile, no USCIS for almost two years.,..,.,

GC, tracking delivered tomorrow, if snail mail is on time.,.,., thank God an end to this journey!

I will just post the best thing and worst thing to happen.

Worst, my wife was caught in the ""Fiasco"" at St. Luke's called ""Sputum"" which on any given week the doctors are (I have been told) (cannot prove) told to deny between 30 to 50% x-ray's to ""suspicious"" findings, and causing a 3 month delay.,..,.which my wife was found to be without any problems with her lungs, after the painful delay!

Best: The day we landed at P.O.E. Alanta.,.,.,.and then was still harrassed by immigration for over 1 hour, and only my wife and one other woman going through the P.O.E..,.,., was nothing but harrassment! BUT, she was here!

We are done with USCIS for almost 2 years now!

Best of luck to all of you, hang in there, it is worth it, that is the journey! Thanks, to Visa Journey!

Congratulations! Hint: During the next almost-2-years, collect any & all stuff that applies to your financial & personal merging of lives, and throw it in a box. When ROC time comes, you'll have ample choice of what to send in. Some great and often-overlooked evidence to include is Wills, medical powers of attorney, HIPAA releases, et al.
