Hello everyone! I know I haven't been around much. School keeps me super busy. I just wanted to stop and say thank you to all of you for your support. Marjorie had her interview today and she passed it!!! My beautiful bride-to-be will be coming to the United States and never again will we need to be apart from each other.

Interview was super easy she said. They didn't ask for any supporting documents at all. Only chatted for 2 minutes. They asked 4 questions. Who is your petitioner, what is your fiance's address, if I had been married before, and there was one more but I'm so overwhelmed right now I simply can't remember what it was. Her CFO is in 2 weeks but I have been told it is a piece of cake and she will pass with no trouble at all. Her expected arrival is May 16th right after I get done with exams and our wedding date is July 9th.

Congratulations Erick :) So happy for you two! All the best with your exams as well

Can you contact your embassy on the phone or e mail? I believe they will extend the petition, but its better to contact them and ask whats going on with your paperwork and remind about expiration date.

Sighs, well the visa medical dr's office FINALLY sent the paperwork to the embassy yesterday and sent the copy of the paperwork to my fiance via email as well. So now we wait for the embassy to receive it so they can approve his visa. I really hope they get the paperwork soon because the stress of this whole ordeal is making my hair fall out.

At least it's on order now - just think, it didn't go smoothly as hoped, but it COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE! A lot worse! Be happy the progress has been made and things can move forward now - glue your hair back in, smile, it's coming together!

I am the beneficiary originally from UK !!

im sure everything will be alright. Even though i went trough my whole 'stack' a million times i was always thinking to myself that i am missing something. Im glad in germany you gotta have to send everything before hand to your embassy.

this process literally gave me ADD. Of course every Case is different and for an example...yesterday the officer who interviewed me only looked at some of our provided pictures. i printed tons of chatlogs, even one of the officers joked and said 'man, you are well prepared, arent you?' :)

relax! :) the night before i was sitting in my hotel bed upright, couldnt sleep with a beer in my hand, munching on some treats to calm myself but it really isnt that bad at all. i will keep my fingers crossed for you!

But I understand exactly how you feel.

Yeah, I agree with you, girls, the whole thing is super stressful!!

Today is the first day I woke up with a happy smile on my face and no need to check the paperwork, print something, e-mail to somebody, etc. Just 2 weeks until I finally see my Man!

Lost a lot of weight also, haha. Which is horrible, because I already weigh less than needed. Ah, thats the life. Hope, the American food will help :)

Wishing everyone who is still struggling, lots of good luck and patience!!!
