She can do none of the above.

Connection to the internet in Cuba is $10/hour for a 33kbps connection on an ancient machine you can rarely connect a flashdrive to. Assuming she was allowed to make the connection, it would take at least 30-60 minutes to download that single file and whether or not she could store it on a flash drive or not is the call of the location she is connecting from. Usually you cannot. She has a computer but there are only a half-dozen locations within Havana where she could use her computer and those are engaged in not allowing Cubans access to their wireless system. Assuming she did all of that, mail is not currently permitted to go from Cuba to the US and I am doubtful she would be able to email me the form for the same reason she cannot receive it.

Thanks for the dropsend suggestion but it doesn't resolve the problem either. The filesize remains too large to pass through the Cuban intranet email filter.

I need a way to reduce the size of the file itself before sending it.

First off I know you can to it with Adobe applications.

Anyway, I was just messing around and captured the screen, saved as a jpeg and I was able to get it down to 84kbs (which is really small). Anyway, it's attached. You will have to convey the second page to your fiance. Good luck

This is a shot in the dark...

What does the written part of the check say? e.g. A common mistake when filling out a check is to write the appropriate amount of 340.00; but the written part might say Three Hundred Four Dollars 00/100. It makes a difference. Legally the recipient can only deposit the submitted check for the lowest amount displayed.

Just a shot in the dark.

Hello all,

My fiance is worried about working and possibly traveling back home. She currently has a visa that allows her to travel back and forth to the U.S. She told me today that there might be a 6 month to 1 year process where she will not be allowed to leave the U.S. after she enters on her k-1; is that true?

Another question she had was in reference to a job. She is worried about not being able to work right away. Is there is a 3 month application process that she may have to go through before she can work? Does anybody on this board have experience with either of these issues? Also, is there any way to get this process rolling sooner rather than later?

Thanks.
