Hi Junies,

 

One more straggler crossing the finish line of the K1 visa process. 

 

After making POE here in Ohio on March 26th,  my fiance and I finally tied the knot yesterday, June 14th...with less than ten days left on the K1 Visa :P  Phew!  

 

And I finally received my SSN on May 30th, more than two months after applying for it on March 27th. No idea why it took so long.

 

You guys on this site kept me going through some really dark times and I'm very grateful for that. To anyone still waiting, hold on and keep holding on because sometimes, it really is darkest before the dawn.

 

@KBA

 

My heart goes out to you, dear!  Kudos for keeping a positive outlook, you've been an inspiration to me, more than you know.  My thoughts and prayers will be with you until your Visa Journey comes to a happy end as well.  (L)

 

Now, presenting Mr. and Mrs. D and T :P

Congratulations on your wedding! 🎉 Thank you for the kind words...I have some dark days too and sometimes feel completely helpless in this process...but eventually it will have to come to an end one way or another...right?!? 😊

We already marked 1year and 5days from filing up to this date. 

And got received an email from UsCIS that there is still no update since they received our response for the RFE. 

I salute you @KBA for being so optimistic in this entire process. 

Sad truth, we have nothing to do but wait and have faith that sooner or later we will get throug this.

Ugh, how long has it been since they received the RFE? I received that same email with the “no update” message. Hoping we both hear something soon!
