Hi all, Just wanted to let you know that we, Chuck and Rose, have returned to the US together. Everything went so smooth and I am very thankful. The POE was too easy. The guy asked her if she knew how long she had to get married. She replied, "Yes, 90 days." The guy then said make sure you do it or you will have to go back and we were out of there. Good luck to all on the upcoming interviews.

im not sure how i missed this one but welcome to the USA and many congratulations

Well everyone - consider me an April VSC I-129F filer....

....My SO had her medical last Tuesday and when she went to pick up the results the docs said they found something on the x-ray. She has to wait another 10 weeks before she gets her visa. So mid or late June. Not too bad, at least waiting unknown amounts of time on the NOA2 and packet 3's are all over with.

..The university I attend offers a summer 1 session that ends early June 20's so it works out perfectly. I am going to take 12 credits in the 8 week summer 1 session so I will keep busy.

...Worst part of this all is I bought the airplane tickets in advance so I had to put them on hold ($100 fee per ticket times 2 tickets). At least the tickets are paid for and come June I will only need to pay $200. Oh, and we ( I ) might get stuck with a $400 medical bill. But she is healthy and everything is okay other than this 10 week unexpected delay.

India, gun buyback and steamroll.

Some people in Juarez, Mexico were saying that occasionally the doctors will victimize people that look like easy targets so that they get extra money into their pockets. I don't think this is the case but I know a lot of places are full of corruption so it wouldn't surprise me.
