Hi all, just wanted to check in and let everyone know how the big day went.

Joana arrived safe and sound at JFK, there were some significant delays, but none because of the immigrations or customs stuff. The plane was about 15 minutes late, then half of the baggage didn't make it on the plane so there was a frenzy of angry passengers. After about an hour and half, she finally made it out the door and into my arms :) I was starting to get nervous because so many people had come out before her, but I guess it was just bad timing at immigration because a couple other flights arrived at the same time.

Her actual immigration process was a breeze. They made her sit down and talk to somebody about the visa, but there really weren't any questions asked. He just filled out some papers, stamped her passport, and she was out the door. Unfortunately, she didn't get the EAD stamp, but she also didn't ask for it. After a long day of flying, and a lot of nervousness, I guess it slipped her mind. So if they do indeed still give the stamp, it's not automatic. We'll try and call the local immigration office and see what we can do about it.

So that's all -- it turns out the hardest part of the K1 proccess is the wait. Hopefully AOS is the same story!
