I flew out there Wednesday the 19th,

Visa came to the door at 15:30 on the 21st,

We flew back together on the 23rd.

POE immigration officer was a nice fella, even cracked some jokes.

Over all, the whole experience was very anticlimactic...

We met in punta cana sept 2013, she came to visit me a month the later and ended up staying for 90 days. Then, I went back with her for a week and she came back with me for 90 more days. After she left in April, I went to visit her in england every month. She came here in sept for 2 weeks, then this month I've been there twice. We were very lucky to be able to see each other so much during the whole process, which made it a lot easier than expected. So, that's why it feels so anticlimactic, cuz we're always together anyways.

Weddings 1/10/15 in my parents basement. Then, in 2016 we're going back to the beach we met on for a destination wedding.

Couldn't be happier.

Thanks VJ for all the help.

Congratulations :D

My POE officer was a robot, didn't even make eye contact with me. Luckily the guys in secondary were nicer.

I hope you have a great wedding!

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".
