ah, that explains it. Now I understand why it is not updating or emailing me anything. Good old wait for the mail man.

Actually, the most important thing is how long their relationship was. As long as they can show emails, chat, visits, phone records, letters, packages......Music they may have created for each other...wow that would be impressive...that is what matters. I am thinking of presenting the postcards I sent my boyfriend from Germany, his christmas cards for me, the cards his family has given me...so on.

F1 are allowed to get married in the country and adjust status. You are not expected to be here for 4 (bs), 2(ms), 6(bs ms), or 9(bs ms phd) years without relating to human beings. They understand love happens. Specially if you can document it .Plus I bet the US is interested in keeping around minds they have educated and molded and bring so much richness to the country (diversity, culture, application of education).

In any case, love shows, people have been asking us if we are married since our second year dating, but we just got married in november.

Dont worry, just prepare well!

funny thing, the EAD had been sitting at home for 10 days. Hubby tought that since it was an unmarked envelope with a hard card on it, it must be acredit card offer. So yesterday I got interested in the whole thing (with the economy so crappy, who wants to give an F1 a credit card?), opened the envelope and there it was. My own picture facing me! I was getting worried because the interview appointment had arrived before the EAD, usually it was backwards. I came to the US as a student in 2003, they gave me a SSN. Do I have to reapply? Why?

My NOA was dated 12-26-08. I got my Bio's done on 1-21-06...but I have not heard of them again. I know they should be writting soon, but we have not recieved any RFE's or any touches on our case numbers since the bio's. .I am growing impatient because i need to renew my license, and want to apply to jobs specific to my major. It takes time and the companies willing to take me will not even look at my resume without EAD (ok not to give me the job, that is the law. But how about giving it a look and calling me later?). First time since my freshman year that I do not have my own income, it feels very strange and I cannot wait to help hubby pay for the credit cards and student loan .

How long should I wait before calling or getting more worried?
