Tohoku got a reaction from FLAussie in What should the Asian women do for their lives and their families if they married to American citizen men?
I don't really get what you're trying to say here. What adventure? You mean the marriage? I guess we can say that marriage is an adventure, but what does a marriage have anything to do with where or to what nationality does one marry? I married my husband not because he is American (or I should say, I married him in spite the fact that he is American, lol, kidding!), but because he is a compatible partner for me, who happen to be my best friend. I did choose to leave my homecountry years ago for a job, and now, I choose to move to the US to be with my husband, since it is the most eligible option for us for now (I can do my job from the US, he can not do his job from Japan).
I will always miss my family and friends back home, but my husband is my family too, and I am no way under any false pretenses that live in the US will be better than life in Japan or in Indonesia. It is not the US, it is my family, my best friend, my husband, that will make my life better.
As simple as that.

Tohoku reacted to MichaelSutisien in Non-Legal Social Weddings
Greetings,
I am new to this site and will begin starting a K1 Visa for my Indonesian-Chinese Fiancee. I believe that everything will go smoothly with Immigration, but I do have one concern. I am a US citizen and my Fiancee is a Indonesian citizen who is Chinese. We had a non-legal Social Wedding or what she calls a Chinese Wedding (non0legal) or otherwise known as a Commitment Ceremony according to Indonesian standards. We are both Christians and because of the Chinese Ceremony her family and Church accepts me as her husband even though the Indonesian government still considers her "Single" since our Chinese Wedding was a non-legal one and not registered with the Indonesian government. In our hearts we consider ourselves as husband and wife even though out Wedding/Marriage was not a legal one. My fear is the I am afraid that the USCIS might think that I am filing for the wrong type of Visa. How do I adviad this misunderstand to prevent any delays with my K1 filing? Our commitment to each other is real to the point that most of our emails we refer to each other as husband and wife. I know that I can still bring her to the USA on a K1 Visa. I just want to advoid any misunderstanding which might cause delays with Immigration. Any suggestions?
