Thank you for the recommendations!!! You sure know how to be helpful!!!

Recommendations for what exactly? Need more details.

What do you think I would like to know? How to use the cashier machines in Walmart?

The same situation you had when you entered the states probably? How different could it be?

Obnoxious, much.

Explain what you want recommendations for and you'll find people around here are most helpful.

I surprised her with a proposal in Los Angeles, and this is how it went down!

Your being rude to the people that are trying to help you is absolutely uncalled for. No two people have the same situation when going through this process. You asked a very general question that is waaay too broad for us to know what you want. Are you asking about your Point of Entry? Are you asking about what type of questions you'll be asked at Passport Control? Are you asking what you need to do after you get there & are married? You can't just throw out a nonspecific question like that then be so rude to the answers you get asking for more information. Fill out your timeline. We've all done it. Yours will most likely be completely different than all of ours. The fact that you say its the same as when someone else entered makes it sound like you haven't gone through your K-1 at all, yet & you're just talking about a normal trip to the US to visit. Which we would know if YOU FILLED OUT YOUR TIMELINE.

Don't bite the hand that feeds you...

Sometimes, some people think they are paying somebody here in VJ to just feed them the right info. Even had the guts to mock those who tried to reach out and help them. :blink: Seriously, I think more than anything else, OP needs recommendations on how to behave in a civilized manner before interacting with people in US. :lol:

***** Mod warning ******

- OP, if you ask a question with little information as to why, people will need to clarify to give pertinent information. If you are rude to the members here, you will soon find them unwilling to help you. We ask for timelines to give the correct info for where you are in your visa journey, and because gathering that info helps others too.

- Others: Let's desist from making fun of the Op. If they truly want information, they will now clarify what they are looking for. *****

OP, the following forums may be more informative for you:

What do you think I would like to know? How to use the cashier machines in Walmart?

You asked an extremely broad question. If you want specific answers to a specific question, then you should provide details in your post to make it specific and well understood. Communication skills are good. I recommend those. I cannot help with recommendations for being a Walmart cashier, as I have no experience with that.

If you want to know what to do after you enter, try here > http://www.visajourney.com/content/guides
