Well our long, long, long awaited day has finally come! My fiancé received his K1 visa and had POE yesterday. I flew to Jamaica to bring him here. It was a hectic emotional trip running around getting him all packed up and visiting family and friends to say goodbye. Everything with POE went great and it was bittersweet emotional day.
Today is his first full day in USA and also my birthday!! What an amazing birthday present! We are celebrating by going to a reggae show in Chicago with friends who don't even know he's here yet! Can't wait to surprise them!
I want to thank everyone here at VJ. I couldn't have made it through this extremely difficult journey without you! I'd like to give a special thanks to LovelyUs, Pinkrlion, Jawaree, Natasha&Noor, and Ebunoluwa. Your advice and inspiration got me through very bad days and there were many of those! Thank you to everyone who PMd me with kind words and encouragement. The love I felt when no one else understood was invaluable. Thank you to everyone who PMd with questions asking for help. It was a joy to help others. It took my mind off obsessing over my own visa journey.
This is the best birthday I've ever had! After 2 years, I know I deserve it! It just once again proves True Love can win and in God's time thy will be done!
Blessings to you all!

Very paranoid, in fact. Fly through Dublin. It has a CBP pre-clearance facility, so you'd know if you are allowed to enter the US before boarding your plane in Dublin.

We were approved verbally on June 7th. We were told 7 to 10 business days for the new passport to arrive. We received an email today, June 14, that the courier has the package for delivery. We expect it to arrive by Friday.

Mrs. T-B. came because this is where I lived. She'd been here a couple of times before and had no urge to come back. Now, she can't imagine living in Ecu again.

A lawyer is a total waste of time or money except if you have some huge issues (previous removal/ban from the US, criminal charges etc).

I did my POE in the "old" Dublin airport terminal. It was cramped and the lines could be long but I took that over the possibility of being refused (even if it was very unlikely) stateside. It just meant to me that all hurdles had been completed up to that point. I could enjoy my flight with no worries and just get off at the gate and head straight to baggage claim. I also felt smug to be able to walk past the CBP in Newark.
It has been nearly six years. I wonder if they still try the joke about tearing up the visa and your packet so that you can escape being married....

Hey! I'm a bit late to the party here, but I have considerable experience flying back-and-forth to Ireland from Chicago's O'Hare. My fiance (Irish) and I (American) have been together since 2010 and knew each other before then. I have experience with the old Dublin airport as well as the new terminal. The new terminal is now where you'll process through as someone heading stateside. We're waiting for our interview, but if my fiance is approved Dublin will be our POE; I plan to submit a review at that time in case I have any new insights in regards to the K1 process.
As far as Dublin goes as a POE, yes, if you intend on flying back with him to the states once the visa is approved (something my fiance and I are actually considering at the moment), flights stateside are in an entirely separate area from everyone else in the airport. I don't recommend browsing too much through all the shopping the airport has available because sometimes the line can get very backed up; it's been as short as 10 people ahead of me and as long as ~75. The US citizen goes to a line on the right, the non-American goes through a queue on the left.
The entirety of the customs process is handled in Dublin, so the clock for your 90 days to get married begins once he's through the line. There's even a nifty picture of the president in eyesight of the queues.
Unfortunately, you can't wait or go up to the officers together. My fiance and I have flown to America together before and we split up in the lines and only reunited once we were both past the process. Irony of ironies, I actually had (and always have, I swear) a more difficult time coming through than he did or does.
Once you're through, they'll either direct you into a waiting area for further questioning or on to the next round(!) of security. Fairly standard all around and not too bad.
Flying into Chicago from Dublin is great; they normally deposit you to a gate, you walk through a hall, down a flight of stairs/escalator,and tadaa you're at the flights' baggage claim area. Way better than the domestic set up!

Not many mentions of POE because they is not anywhere to fill out and not really much more too it then if you were just flying out normally. I presume you are talking about when you fly out to move to US.
If so when you go through the US customs you do everything as you would if just going for a holiday and when you get to the person you give your file and they will then take you to a waiting room behind there booths and hand the file to an officer in there. They will look over it, call you up explain the rules to you as in must get married in 90 days etc and then you are on your way just as you would be any other time.

Hehe, I did have a fair share of love blindness in my life That one was not a cheater when I met him, nor was he married. But he was a cheater when i left him.
Anyhow, if I was looking for relationship advice, I would go to a women's magazine column, or a blog.

^ This.
The addendum doesn't negate the "spouse and child" portion of the lease language, but there may be a maximum occupancy issue. Best to talk to the landlord. They may allow your wife to move in, but they will definitely charge you more rent.
