On this date, Manyober Many'th (2x2x2 +1th), Many (2x2x2x2 +1) years ago, Mrs. T-B.-to-be entered los Estados Unídos with virtue of her K-1 visa, enter she man. (As we here remember, this visa was wrenched from the ####, ####, #######, ####### Guayaquil consulate after much infuriating effort, we man.) Mrs.-T-B.-to-be was fresh off Many (2+1) despedidas (going-away parties) in Many (2+1) Ecu cities and arrived sick as a dog, sick she man. We spent $Many -- si man, $Many -- in getting her a clinic appointment at full retail price and getting her Rx also at full retail price, we man. We did not yet know about the Mexican medical clinic where they charge only $Many ($2x2x2x2x2 + 2+1) for a clinic visit and also speak Spanish, no and man. This is our memory of this day in history, remember we man.

That's fine! Fret less.

Addendum: For Removing Conditions (next step), you WILL have to provide lots of bona fide evidence. Take everything relevant in hard-copy form that comes in from this point forward, and throw it into a box. Set up a special computer folder for everything digital that comes in, and transfer relevant stuff into it. By ROC time, you'll have the high-class problem of deciding what NOT to include.

You don't really need much at all for AOS*; the marriage certificate within 90 days should suffice. *unless requirements have changed since my time Couples have separate bank accounts all the time -- USCIS knows this. Send what you have and fret less.

Look for the member's post on July 21. --- Resolved thread is now closed to further comment.

You should also strongly consider drafting estate documents -- wills, medical & durable powers of attorney, HIPAA releases, etc. No matter how young you are or how little you think you have, you don't want to be without these. These documents are superior evidence for Removing Conditions (your next step after this), and they're even more crucial to have in "life" as early as possible. See if Pennsylvania has officially compatible forms somewhere on the state/Commonwealth's official website; if not, shop for an attorney who can draft them inexpensively. I'm not a lawyer, but I specifically asked one, and she said that estate/probate attorneys make their biggest money off people who "do these forms themselves from templates on the Internet," so keep that in mind.

It's always tense when you're striving to join a first-world country.

She'll probably send fotos if cell service allows, but usually she doesn't report details, si and no man. She says it's an "old people's" cruise, no one under age Many man. Well, get out and do something enjoyable and interesting, si and Bro G man! Just wait for our Thrilling Thursday report, man. Note that ex-Mrs.-T-B. is still depressed after having been dumped by the Rojo, striving to break out of it ex-she man man.

All two of them? Let's hope so... but, again, death in Islam is a win-win -- die a martyr and get the 72 virgins, or survive after killing infidels and be forgiven for all sins and thus qualify for Paradise and the 72 virgins.

Guy looks like another real winner.

Read carefully, interpret literally, and answer/respond completely & accurately. This protocol ensures your success throughout this immigration process.

You can do this; just keep them distinct.

Scintillating Wednesday repartee, yawn man. ----- Thrilling Wednesday report, see man: Breakfast was what Mini-B. refused/didn't have time to consume, ingest wee man but mostly we man man. A re-embedding was mandatory and prompt, re-zzz we man. Went to visit Mama T-B., mostly productive man. Caucus degenerated into yelling when she tried to make us clean a dish left by the lunch-deliverers, NOT our job man. After this, and after weeks/months, we decided that we deserved to acknowledge ourself, decent self-treatment man. Lunch/din-din was therefore the Olive Garden lunch special, ingest we man. We should do this less infrequently, conclude we man. Mini-B. returned "tired" from non-Two-Guys eve, disgruntled wee man man. When confronted with much undone hoamwurk, he enclosed himself in his room, isolationist wee man man. When we checked on him 2 hours later, he was bed-sprawled and zzz-ing deeply, exhausted wee man man. He was highly disoriented when aroused, thought he was late to skool man. He claims to have finished his hoamwurk, yeah right man. No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. leaves for her cruise on Thursday, bye ex-she man man. We must compile our GS/ES itinerary, compile we man. And that was/is our thrilling Wednesday, report we man.

Yee-HAAAAA! Now you're free to change your behavioUr. Seriously, what a great feeling, huh?

We Are the Cure for TDS America has a sickness, and it's not just a horrendously unhealthy food supply. It's deeper, darker, and more sinister. It goes by three letters: TDS – Trump Derangement Syndrome. What is TDS? It is a condition that turns ordinary people into hateful monsters whenever President Trump is mentioned. It drives politicians, journalists, professors, and late-night comedians to hate rather than admit that President Trump is good for America. It divides families, ruins friendships, and convinces people that their fellow Americans are enemies rather than good-natured citizens. I've known about TDS since before it had a name. Back in 2016, I was one of the first people "canceled" for supporting President Trump. I donated $500 and sent a few tweets in support. Within hours, Democrat activists attacked me, my company, and my employees. Tens of thousands of hateful emails flooded in. A small army threatened to destroy my business, and I was viciously defamed. All over $500. That’s TDS. Since then, [...] https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2025/10/08/we_are_the_cure_for_tds_153375.html

Have any solutions to suggest to stop this garbage? If you were Tom Homan, Kristi Noem, or Pres. Trump, what would you do? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Democrats, Call Off Your Animals We can't be the only Americans fed up with seeing video after video of antifa-types interfering with federal law enforcement, of mobs forming around ICE officers making arrests, of "protesters" confronting men and women who are just doing their jobs. The Democrats could rein them in, but they won't, and that makes them co-conspirators in a slow-motion rebellion that is picking up speed. Of the many acts of violence against federal officers, the worst so far is the incident in Chicago in which "officers were rammed by vehicles and boxed in by 10 cars." It was clearly planned, maybe not another Harper's Ferry, but it was meant to strike fear and set off a cascade of similar attacks. Or maybe it was the second worst.

Muslims are allowed to lie to infidels (= us) via the sanctioned process of taqiyya. I predict that this won't last. I also predict that the thousand-plus hostages that Israel must release will return with a deadly vengeance over the next months and years.

Dude -- you're back! The bloom goes off the rose (in politics and feminine attractiveness) after a time, but we shall see.

Perish THAT thought! He's distracted enough from regaining Chrysanthemum status.

I echo Edward's sentiments. Thank you for taking the time to let us (and everyone) know.

Welcome to the forum! If you merely intend to inquire about case progress, you should wait a year; if nothing has happened by then, contact your U.S. Congressman's immigration liaison to ask on your behalf. Regardless, we need more details, per the questions above from others.

Not to derail my own thread, but this chica is quite a fox, especially for her age. So is Giorgia Meloni of Italy -- very ogle-worthy.

Cat needs to bite harder, then. Seriously, what an awful situation that turned out very fortunately.

Insight into reviving the South Texas sugarcane industry, a field that few of us here probably know much about. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Texas ag commissioner supports plan to revive Valley sugarcane industry Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller on Friday announced that he is throwing his support behind a plan to revive the Rio Grande Valley's sugarcane industry, which shuttered in 2024 when the Santa Rosa sugar mill closed due to the ongoing water crisis. In a news release, Miller said he supports a plan between Santa Rosa Sugar LLC, Bizos Cavallo, Vera International and Verax Commodities which have partnered and signed a purchase agreement to acquire the assets of Rio Grande Valley Sugar Growers, Inc. "Sugarcane has been part of Texas agriculture for over a century," Miller said in the release. "At its peak, the industry supported thousands of jobs, covered over 40,000 acres in the Rio Grande Valley, and contributed over $100 million annually to Texas. "When the mill closed in 2024, [...] https://myrgv.com/local-news/2025/09/26/texas-ag-commissioner-supports-plan-to-revive-valley-sugarcane-industry/

This is a highly informative and, I think, really interesting article. Comments? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mexico's first female president marks first year in office amid economic uncertainty TIJUANA, México — Twelve months into her six-year term, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum is still riding high. Nearly eight in 10 Mexicans approve of her performance, polls say — a level of support that eclipses five past presidents and would be the envy of almost any world leader. Sheinbaum's public approval surpasses even that of her mentor and immediate predecessor, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, a highly popular president who left office with an equally stunning 76% approval, according to polls. Of course, many Mexican presidencies begin with cheer only to go out with a shrug — or worse. But like Lopez Obrador, Mexico's first female president wins the praise of many by attacking the country's deeply entrenched poverty and inequality. Through the last six years, 13.4 million Mexicans escaped poverty, according to the government. That's more than three times what three center-right, market-friendly administrations achieved in the first 18 years of this century, as reflected by government statistics.
