You get a break on kids under 14. Last time I checked, 15 wasn't under 14.

You're welcome. The direct souce is always a good place to go for questions like this. At the top of the forums page, there is link to the new fees. It's quite self explanatory. What is it you were reading?

I didn't suggest the guides. The link is to the list of fees. I checked it before answering the question, just to be sure.

Sarcasm can be funny or offensive. It's up to the reader how they choose to take it. I meant it as a joke.

Some things are really just statements. Some things are really just questions. Some people are far to sensitive for their own good.

Yes, some people are too sensitive. But it's very hard to see someone's intent in a written post.

Ok. You didn't suggest the guides. You linked them to the list of fees. Could it be possible they didn't know where it was to begin with? Could it be possible that they just wanted advice and interaction? I think so.

I think this site is going to just die down if people aren't allowed to ask questions. That is the point of this thing isn't it?

Just know I was furnishing some constructive criticism pushbrk. Just take it easy.

I hear you. At the same time, I think the admonition to "relax" is just as valid for those who are being too sensitive. Communication is a two way street. Offense is often taken where none was intended.

How many people have to say "you are being sarcastic" before you start to wonder if it is you that needs to stop and think about how you write in reply to people.... saying people are just "being to sensitive" is just an excuse for your sarcastic replies.....

Children children children, I think we all need a timeout and some love and especially a nice cold beer or some wine to relieve everyone's stress. It is amazing how this immigration stuff can drive everyone insane. :dance:

Well thank you everyone for your support and answers.Pushbrk I feel I did take your suggestion the way it was intended,sarcasticly.I am not an oversensitive person but at the moment I am under alot of stress getting ready to move a teenager to the states.I was told at my immigration interview 2 weeks ago that on K-2 she was not under travel restrictions and she would not need an AP.Obviously wrong information right from the horses mouth.So..when I'm reading up about EVERYTHING I'm going through to most people it would be QUITE understanding that I'm checking to see if I'm missing anything.I thought that questions were welcomed here.The fact you clearly considered my question a dumb one goes directly against the saying**there are no dumb questions** At any rate thank you to everyone who was helpful in this manner and Pushbrk how about you see any other questions from me you deem beneath you..how about you don't answer.Better yet even if I come up with a brilliant one leave it to someone else.
