    Interview

    in Africa: Sub-Saharan

    Posted

    ZeeNusah,

    I've been eager to find out how your interview went. It's disappointing to a lot of us who have gone or are going thru' this process to learn that you haven't received an approval this time. Hope we must, nevertheless. This could be a blessing in disguise! You'll continue to be in our prayers. Your hard work is immensely appreciated.

    Miracles Do Happen -- my Wife is Here!!!

    in K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted

    My wife got her K3 visa on Feb 22, and arrived in the US via LAX on Feb 23! Both I-130 & I-129F petitions had been approved on Jan 10 after over 8 months' wait. We had tried twice to obtain a visitor's visa earlier but were denied. On Feb 1, a week after the K3 visa petition arrived at the embassy, my wife picked up pkt 3. We had put together all the documents required already -- thanks to VJ members; all we needed was the medical exams. She got the first exam done that very day and the 2nd 6 days later. She was told by the embassy they would call her once they received the results of her med exam from the physician. Waited for a week. I called the embassy to inquire about the progress of the application on Feb 15; they told me she should return the documents. She did a few hours later. She was advised to return on Feb 20; little did we know that she would be interviewed then. A miracle happened! Interview was very short and easy; visa was approved right away & was ready 2 days later.

    Without the support and invaluable advice from VJ members, this portion of the journey would have been intolerable. We thank you all very much. For those still waiting at different stages, we wish you well. There is a God who loves you, cares for you, and has a great plan for your life. His timing is the best.

    Getting a divorce. Do I need an immigration lawyer?

    First of all, sorry things have not worked out for the 2 couples above. I'm not an attorney; however, I have gone thru' divorce and dealt with several attorneys. Laura & Truthonlytruth, it seems like both of your marriages have been short, and therefore will not be as complex to dissolve (no children, property, etc). So far both parties in both cases seem to agree on going their separate ways (hopefully, amicably). You can learn about the process at the Family Law Assistance Center at the court you will file your divorce papers. Involving lawyers usually complicates & lengthens the dissolution process, & will surely drain you financially. If you really think you need a family lawyer, contact some who volunteer their legal services at some of the courts. They will give you adequate assistance (free) as you begin your separate lives over. I wish all of you well.
