Hmmm, she's from an eastern European country and she got a B2 VISA, after getting a K1? Sounds a little fishy to me. :secret:

A US Embassy will issue visa (and expedite it too) for humanitarian reasons.

Hi all,

I just wanted to share something with you guys on VJ community...something which has shaken me pretty much today. As I can't stop thinking about it, I thought it would be a good thing to post it here.

I work at Munich Airport for a big airline, and I happened to meet a sweet, young girl today. She was a passenger en route to the US. During the regular data registration at the gate it turned out that she was a citizen of an eastern European country, holding two visas in her passport, a B2 visa...and a canceled K1 visa, which had been issued just recently!

God knows that I am so glad now that I didn't say something stupid and didn't ask her about the canceled K1 visa, for she started to talk about the whole subject without me asking anything about it :

she started to cry silently and explained that her fiance had passed away and that she was now on her way to his funeral. She tried to stay calm, but she was crying, and all I could think of was how awfully sad that girl must be now. I felt like crying with her. I did my best to make sure that this girl would at least have a pleasant flight to the US...but how are you supposed to console somebody who has suffered the loss of a loved one -

and the dreams they had?

The reason why I wanted to share this with you guys on VJ community is that I want to set some kind of "in memoriam" for the girl's fiance.

We don't know anything about him or her, we don't know anything about their story or how they met, or what happened to him...but we know that they were two people in love and that they wanted to share their lives together.

They were going through the exhausting process of getting a K1 visa for her and they had come so far...and they had dreams of a shared future, maybe they were VJ-members, too.

I'd like to think that her fiance is in a place now where he can see what's going on on this planet...and I'd like him to see that he was not just a little number among billions of others. I'd like him to know that by posting his and his girl's story on this board, it will reach many other people. People who have similar dreams like they had, and he'll see that many strangers feel with them.

I am glad for them that they had found each other and that they could spend together at least the time they were given.

My thoughts will be with that sad, pretty, young thing, who's on a flight to the US right now. I hope that someday her life will be filled with laughter and joy, again.

R.

And you always think it can't happen to you. Sometimes I worry not being there with my fiancé and that something may happen to him and I'm not there. Maybe is stupid to think that way but I guess when you love somebody it’s unavoidable. I hope she’ll be ok with the time and that she'll find her happiness in life.

Btw. I noticed a Croatian flag in your signature, what does it mean?

True Love Lost

The moonless night cupped me in its hands Without a star and only the light post to keep me company My thoughts are with you. With silence around me and only my footsteps for company My thoughts are with you. As the cool winter breeze caresses my face My thoughts are with you. As tears well up in my eyes my thoughts are with you. My Love why did you leave me? Your body stayed but your soul went to heaven. With love in my heart I think of you.

So, you think that no one from Eastern Europe is able to get a visa to the great United States of America under any circumstances? Well, you're WRONG.

It is a lot easier to get a visa than some people portray it to be.
