Hello VJ'ers, just wanted to give a big thanks to this website and a few members that helped me along the way in this somewhat frustrating process. We all came a long way and fought hard to have the life we deserve together with our loved ones. My gratitude for you all and the existence of this website can only be expressed through this post.
For those of you that have yet to have an interview or to those of you that had not been approved. Please keep your head up and fear nothing. You will make it sooner or later because love does not tire and does not give up. Love those dear to you and support them the best you can no matter the difficulties that may arise, work through it all together and remember to be supportive of each other. Believe me I know how tough it can be. Stress levels can and have skyrocketed for the bigger half of you but all in good time will that weight be lifted from your shoulders and nothing feels better than to hear the words from a consular saying they will be approving of the visa. It feels as if the whole worlds weight was lifted from your shoulders. That and then look on your loves face alone are all worth the efforts.
There is always hope and success for those that love fully and don't give up due to circumstance. Your love will shine through like a blinding light to these consular officers one day and you will have your dreams and wishes to be together recognized.
God Bless you ALL!
Thank you world for the happiest feeling in my life.

Multiple reasons, being that we were introduced 3 years prior as pen pals by a family member, I was unemployed for most of that time, but we wished to be together by the year 2012 coming to a close because our feelings peaked and we could only talk about 1 thing, which was to see each other. so # 1 was that we got engaged as soon as i had $ to do so... (first visit, even if its what we had wanted for a whole year after building a relationship for 3 years...) I asked her family to help me, so did my mom make a special request due to her illness not being able to attend with us. So #2 was her USA family being involved even though they have known me since I was 9 years old which can be proven easily as I have pics with them as a child. So it's only assumptions based on "suspicion due to the rare circumstances." They also made a flat out lie saying we were both interviewed and my answers didn't match hers that being #3... when they didnt ask me anything, just told me to sit while they interviewed her. said we didnt "demonstrate" that we could speak "in a common language" another dumb reason when they never asked us to stand together or asked us to answer any questions together. we have a full years worth of chat logs showing we communicate.... it was just a whole mess so #4 was also this whole assumed GAP in language barrier when she is pretty good at communicating to me, especially whens he is an angry tiger....... lol. Tey like to say "among other factors" but never tell you what those "factors" are because they are most likely not even a "fact" :/ just baseless assumptions. We were done dirty, like a lot of legitimate couples

I'm hoping to do the same. If she gets her Visa the following friday after the interview then i will buy a ticket that day for her... doesnt matter the cost. if she has to wait a week, that's fine, but it will suck i cant fly with her. it's ok but would make me a bit sad i didnt get to hold her hand on the plane since its also her first experience on one and might be a little scary. whatever happens im sure we will work it all out.
