Been a while since I checked this forum. It took the better part of 2 weeks to clear out my house and get rid of all my stuff (my god a person collects a lot of stuff). But finally October 1st I entered the country.

Next up the actual courthouse wedding, if either one of us feels any better, we both came down with the cold the next day

it now says issued and I got an email today saying it is all done and to come and pick it up tomorrow :-)

I cant though, because of work, so will have to go a different day, but to celebrate I still booked a flight for mid-November.

tomorrow is our one year anniversary from our received date, so if I would have been able to go tomorrow it would be exactly one year from received-at-tsc to visa-in-hand. I´d have liked that, but hey, after a year, another few days are really not that bad :-D I might just barely be able to deal lol

Not sure who's still following, but how is everyone?! I would like to think that all of us are here with our significant others now!! (Especially you mena!!) Hope you & your significant others are adjusting well!!

Santy & I had 2 wonderful weddings (apart from the courthouse one hahaha) and just got our green card NOA2! No interview, which is kind of weird, but I'm not complaining. :) The card is in the mail now! And Santy is going for a permit test on Monday, and my boss is helping him get a job! So things are pretty good with us, apart from it still being an adjustment to not be long distance hahah!

Hope you guys are all doing well!! Keep us posted!!!

I am officially in the US now, and we were married on October 25th. It was a perfect day, and worth the wait for sure. It was a long almost year of waiting, but am blissfully happy now! We are waiting on our marriage certificates to do our AOS paperwork. We haven't been in a massive rush. Now that we finally have forever!

Glad to hear that your weddings went well, Allie!! Santy must be so happy to finally be able to do all of this, said you said before not being able to was getting to him.

I hope everyone else is finally settled in, married and happy!!
