Yee-HAAAAA! You must feel great, and deservedly so.

Thrilling Thursday report, see man: Skool-dropped Mini-B., then waited for scheduled phone call from financial advisor, wait we man. No call for nearly half an hour after agreed time, no man. Guy finally called, delayed by boss-man man. Recommendation: "Put all your funds into Pre-Owned Toilet Seats, si man!" We could have told him that, si man! Ran errands, successfully man. Lunch was at favorite Chinese buffet, usual waitress there man. We consumed Many (2+1) heaping plates of beef/chicken, ingest we man. Last errand was to Costco Business Center, rather nearby man. Got our planned 2 items and nothing more, disciplined we man. Siesta'd heavily at casa, zzz we man. Miu twice loudly announced desire to play with feather-rollers, just wait please miu man. Was Mini-B.'s eve with ex-Mrs.-T-B., si man. Mini-B. seemingly more alert to hoamwurk/skoolwurk, good start man. We will have to help him with Math, man. If P-Math, most of the answers would be "Many," easy man. We have itineraried Many (2+2+2) ESs for Friday, rather proximal man. Next (not this) weekend is citywide GS at FST, hopefully no rain man.

Gracias, D ma'am. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. has limited it somehow -- no widespread browsing, but still WhatsApp and maybe more. He can't get calls but can get texts (except for ours!). She's fiddling with it, still. Good place to abandon the kids permanently, whee D ma'am! This happened to us via computer glitch, sigh man -- right when some appointments were taking place, aarrgh man. If it's in P-math (as it should be), it might take some time to get right, oj tak. Of course, Polish keyboards & calculators have "0, 1, 2, Many" as their keys, oj tak. Quit being vain about your veins, si and D ma'am! Ecuador, si ma'am Dominican Republic, si ma'am Mexico (not in Matamoros), si ma'am

It would be easiest to deport everyone back to where they came from, or send them to southernmost Chile, or some garden spot in Africa (Niger, South Sudan, Rwanda...).

If you have 5 years as a permanent resident as it appears, you can file the N-400 for naturalization. Doing so often pries the ROC loose, and you'd probably have a combination interview. Before you do this, contact your Congressman's immigration liaison, who can inquire about the status of the I-751. If this would be your first inquiry through them on this matter, the office will have a release form for you to submit, giving them permission to help you. Might you have missed receiving an interview notice, addressed wrong or misdelivered? You indicate that you moved. As stated earlier above, your current local USCIS office may be backed up for many months.

And who pays for these? Who guarantees that the illegals won't cut them off like domestic criminals so often do? Who ensures that illegals who move elsewhere by choice are forcibly rounded up and brought back to Texas? Sounds like some civil-liberties attorneys would be licking their chops.

It yielded "Disable your ad-blocker to continue." No way. I would like to know precisely how Bidementia intends to enforce that. What's he gonna do -- station troops or CBP agents at every highway exiting Texas?

Mini-B. thinks that Cat T-B. is "stoopid." Toward this, I consider the following factors: -- Cat T-B. is a curious busybody (= not unusual for cats) -- Cat T-B. remains mystified by her electronic litterbox and climbs in while it's in action -- Cat T-B. doesn't recognize her carrier, easing the job of throwing her into it for vet visits The above, at least the last 2, arguably indicate some level of stoopidity. Then, there are these factors: -- Cat T-B. demands meal/treat/brushing service at fairly consistent times -- Cat T-B. demands play by dropping her feather-rollers at my feet These arguably indicate some level of non-stoopidity. Comments are welcome, si man. Easily fixed.

Maybe the release form from the constituent that grants permission for the Congressional office to inquire on his behalf?

Bidementia needs to go, certainly. If Kommie takes over, the question is whether the U.S. will survive (enemies licking their chops). If we do survive, the good news is that Kommie is highly beatable in the election, absent fraud.

Either that or we need nuclear incendiary devices mounted on our dashboards, to remove those pesky impediments in front of us.

Yeah -- those late-night flights landing at secondary airports all over the Northeast and the country. Not one complaint about those!

And if you don't pay it, you'll be de-lighted. Haaaaaaaaaa!

Sympathies, brother. I remember much the same problem in my own case, albeit years earlier at a different consulate under lower-tech conditions. This isn't fun, but it will work out. Keep us apprised so that we can cheer for your ultimate success.

Wait until they're assaulted or they get tired of being creeped-out.

For any consular interview, it's far preferable to have more than you need than to need more than you have. Very happy to hear about the successful outcome!

That's what we're here for, and optimally what you can expect. Do as much reading here as you possibly can, and become an "A" student of the entire immigration process. Also, complete your VJ Timeline -- it will help people to help you. Here's a look back at my own journey: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/410945-k-1-journey-completed/ This is true. The letter of intent is a stand-alone document, and required. Depending on how tough the consulate is plus other factors, you might opt to include something like a relationship timeline in the I-129F petition package.

If she's writing her love story, anyone proficient in that language can translate it and accompany the translation with the "translator's certificate" (template available here on VJ). You may even do it.
