Hi guys

Just a quick question for those who have had their interviews already, should I bring more photos with me to the interview? I sent in alot of evidence with the packet but wondering if they are likely to ask for more?

The packet had about 20 photos in it, and emails, IMs, flights, receipts, wedding preparations etc

Thanks for your advice

-N

It can't hurt to be prepared, but it seems like no one going through Sydney is asked for anything more than what was already submitted (my husband brought a whole stack of stuff and it wasn't even glanced at). If it eases your mind, by all means do it. But don't be surprised when it's not asked for

Ditto... my husband brought heaps of stuff, but I didn't care as long as he had everything they might ask for. It was worth it to us to be over prepared.

LOL hilarious

Nobody chooses internet chat as a substitute for courting. Some people simply have no choice.

You're very fortunate if you were able to do all of those things before getting married. Most of us are not that lucky.

oh, come on, jim. that's like saying mice ate all of those holes in swiss cheese.

nobody is born with a "fiancee". we all choose our spouses. some of us choose people we meet in a street market. some of us choose people we meet on the internet. we all know where the people are before we consider them as mates.

we all have opportunities to meet people face to face, and some of us choose to do so, while others choose not to.

you seem like a very well organised guy. you are very logical in processing information, in general. how you missed the obvious logic in this question would seem an unanswerable question. the truth is that the answer lies within you. i'm sure you already know what it is.

THANK YOU!!!!!!! Seems like the "Justs".......... Justashooter and Just Bob are laying down some real talk, and people can't handle it. The people who look for relationships on the internet usually have VERY SPECIFIC target countries. If its not your fault that you fiance lives half a world away, who's fault is it???

Did you even bother to read the conversation? I have to presume from your sweeping generalization that you did not. Justashooter's comment not only missed the target, it missed the broad side of the barn it was hanging on. Like a lemming, you have now followed him off the cliff.

My comment was specifically about people who use the internet to court their fiancee - not about people who shop for relationships on the internet. As many people mentioned in this thread, myself included, they did not "look for relationships on the internet". In my case, I was introduced to my fiancee by a friend I've known for years. If I thought it was appropriate to blame someone for this, I suppose it would be his "fault". What's more, I had never been to Vietnam before that, nor dated a woman from Vietnam, nor corresponded, via the internet or otherwise, with a woman from Vietnam. Many people followed my comments with their own similar stories. Also, being a global medium, when you have a chance encounter with someone on the internet the odds of that person being from a foreign country are very high.

But since you seem to be focused on people who shop for potential brides on the internet, what is the difference between someone who meets girls on the "Filipina Sluts 'R Us" website (apologies to the Filipinas reading this) and someone who takes a 3 month sex tour of the country every year? The internet is a communications medium, and it can be used for nefarious purposes like any other medium. Since some sexual predators like to hang out at shopping malls, would you condemn every relationship that began with an encounter at a shopping mall? Does everyone who is married to a Jamaican automatically have a fetish for Jamaicans?

Spot on! LOL you crack me up

I stand corrected. I brain is apparently full of something sticky

If you leave the country, just make sure you get an AP so that you can get back into the country

I am confused I didn't think anyone put me down. Did I come across that way? If so, that was not my intention at all. I meant that as a funny line honestly.

And hahaha I don't think that explaining the joke took the fun out of the comment at all LOL I am a LWSM WOOOOOT!

It's HIS fault though. He has that sexy accent and that damn smile that makes me all crazy. In my eyes... he always starts it lol damn foreigner men! humph

We did it without a service. Just do your homework and make sure that you are very detailed in your paperwork.

Welcome to VJ! You will find that this site helps out so much. Please don't forget to fill in your timeline because it helps so many people oout. It allows them to see where you are in the process so they can better assist you when you have questions. Welcome new friend!

*claps

Not sure what LWSM means but I hope you're not cutting me down hahaha.

On another note, I don't think that all men have more to loose by getting married than women do. I mean, I could be a rich doctor that drives a mercedes and he could be a worthless bum that never worked and I was his mommy for 5 years taking care of his lame @#% because working apparently wasn't his "style".

Then when we got divorced he got half of everything I owned and left me with his debt which was so sweet of him.... oh wait........ this is not a scenario this really happened....

So yeah.... women have just as much to loose as men.

Yes you need to file form I-751. You should go to the forms section at http://www.uscis.gov for the most current and up to date form. Do you have Adobe Acrobat? If so, you should be able to download the form, open it and print it.You should file as early as possible after November 5th. Your are about to have a baby so I would get everything together so you won't have to worry about it after you have the baby (because you are going to be a busy mommy) so I recommend that you file before the babies birth.

Thanks!

Really I am the lucky one

It's an official sex contract that binds you by the power of looooooooooooove. You cannot pass go and you cannot collect $200 unless you put out you have the right to remain silent and anything you say can be used against you in a court of love. My poor husband is arrested without a chance of bail or probation. He is hereby deemed my love slave for life and he cannot break the bound contract or else I will tie him up in contempt of court and beat him... he may like that actually... perhaps I should rethink my form of punishment lol

You will tie him up in contempt of bed court hehehe Cheers!

He is doomed and shall reap the consequences of his actions pursuant to act 2648957 of the loooooooooove law. If he resists arrest then I will cuff him.

wheeew! Such a hot burning passion you have for him..wow!

He is my Australian sex god and I worship the ground he walks on. I don't believe marriage is anything but spending your life with someone you are madly in love with. It's about waking up next to that person and making him late for work by overloading him with extra kisses. It's about growing old together and loving each other for their human. Humans are flawed. It's about lovinig the flaws that come with his human because they are apart of him or her.

It's not binding, it's not contractual, it's not forced, it's a choice from the heart and sometimes love makes that choice for us.

It's about knowing that when you are old and your teeth are falling out, your love is going to be there to put them back in for you.

It's about having passion for someone.. passion unmistakable... passion the world can see... love that some people may never find. And it's about being thankful that you are lucky enough to have it.

Starting the process again will be expensive. Is she divorced from her first husband? She can still adujust her status if she has her divorced decree and enough evidence that her first relationship was in good faith. She should go that route rather than starting all over again.

wow

Look honestly no one knows anyone or their situatiions here or what crimes were commited. I mean you can get sexual harassment and have to register as a sexual offender just because some woman decided to say that you looked at her funny at work and she was offended by it. By law your employer has to take action if someone is offended by another employee and what is sexual to one person could have just been a wink to someonoe else.

I guess what I am saying is that no one really knows anyones situation and celebrating the fact that someone had enough evidence to beat a very hard act means that they likely had enough evidence to redeem themselves and I am not here to judge this person.

Stuff can happen in life that can make you a "sex offender" for the rest of your life and it does not always mean it is rape or anything of the sort. People's lives have been ruined by others who hugged them wrong. So please, don't sit here saying that we are "sick" because we are congratulating someone who beat an act that was put into place to prevent those that are real and true criminals from staying in America.

Thank you.

I sent every petition I have ever done in a three ring binder and it haas never caused me any issues.

Some of your stories are heartwrenching. I can't understand anyone that does not have a web cam. I would have died without being able to see Loke daily. For a $20.00 web cam is was one of the best purchases of my life just to see his face.

For all of you who hurt, hold on tight. You will make it through this. Loke is sitting on the couch next to me. We woke up this morning and there is snow outside on the ground. We made coffee and got comfy and held each other and I thought of all my VJ friends and how wonderful it will be for all of you once you are together. I gave him an extra kiss and I took a deep breath in and I remembered holding onto his shirt and now I can hold onto him.

It makes you more thankful to be together knowing you have been apart for so long. Thank you for sharing your stories and your pain and remember that your sadness will become a cup of coffee and a snuggle at some point. Hold onto your hope *hugs*

I plan to submit on the 26th . I am just glad that we have a thread like this .

YAY you and I can be buds we file around the same time!

I was advised that the newest I-134 does not have to be notarized, but when Loke and I did it. I notarized it in America and sent him a copy in case.
