  1. well me and my daughter speak Dutch ( native language) , French and English .

    My daughter just had her first year of school without knowing 1 word of English when we moved here last year July and at the end of the schoolyear she was one of the best students from her class ! ( Sorry I am real proud of her so had to share that :D )

  2. Well I dont know .

    On 1 hand having the GC is enough for me cause I can be totally legally with my hubby and work and all .

    But on the other hand guess there are less restrictions if you are a US Citizen . Just looking at some job offers alot them only accept US Citizens.

    But I would then also like dual citizenship BE/US.

  3. Well I am in the exact same thing as domjeamou .

    We got married during my visit to him in April wich we didnt really plan on doing so quick but ... ( met online 9 months earlier and came to visit him before this visit we got married )

    Well after we got married I went back home to Belgium after my 2 week visit cause my daughter stayed home with my mom as she had to attend school and I also had my job.

    Me and my daughter would visit my husband in July ( as my daughter was on summer vacation ) and my hubby who is in the army had asked to be able to take leave so he could fly back to Belgium with me and my daughter or right after us , so we could file DCF in the US Embassy in Brussels ( had read that it was a lot less complicated and faster than filing AOS here ) . Well my hubby got denied leave cause there was a general inspection planned in the near future . So me and my hubby talked about it and decided that me and my daughter would stay and do the AOS here . The reason we made that decision was that I only had 3 days of paid leave left from my job for the rest of the year ( and as a single mom I couldnt afford to take a couple of weeks non paid every 2 month or so ) and that my hubby would be deployable in 6 months so we did not want to take the chance that he wouldnt be able to take leave for the next couple of months and only see eachother like maybe 1 or 2 times before he might be deployed again for a whole year .

    I still wish we could have dont it thru DCF in Brussels but I couldnt have imagined me hardly seeing my hubby before he would get deployed and my hubby is deployed for a 15 month tour now so ... I am happy we decided to stay in July last year . And I hope my hubby comes home to me soon cause I miss him soo much !
