  1. Juju wassup. Are u sure he needs a social security # to apply for his DL?

    So final overview parents came in dec 19 went back home on jan. 2 (2weeks). They will be back sometime prior to July 3, 2011. Applied for SSNs on Dec. 20 .... Mom got her Ssn/card on dec. 27 (1 week). Dad ended up leaving and didnt get his SSN (its ok he isn't looking for any work). Dec. 28S ent off I-130 for my brother with mom as the petitioner. Dad/mom open a bank account, got their DL/ID on dec. 29. Dad said the test of 30 questions were easy.. The I130 packet delivered to chicago lockbox also. Jan. 2 they went home, Jan. 3 got email notification of acceptance of the the I130 with priority date (december 30, 2010). January 5 received 4 letters (2each) from USCIS saying the received the case file from the POE and welcome letters. , Jan 6 received NOA1 hard copy for brother, 2 Priority mails(red envelope) from USCIS containing their Newly designed "acual greencards" , his check card from the great Bank of America... Told my granny... Postman must have been really busy.

    Hey Ricardo,

    Yeah, in New York they go by a points system based on the documents you have (Ids etc.) With his passport and Green card, he doesn't have enough points and he has no other documents to make up the difference. So he will have to wait for his social. Non, it took them (USCIS) a whole week to get his package from the airport and then a week to process and on Christmas eve he received his green card, yeah, the actual green card, lol. We sort of dragged our feet when it came to the social, because we really though they would send it. Oh well, that is life.

    It looks like your parents were quite busy during their brief stay. They got a lot done. Now, back to warm Jamaica. Good luck with your brother's petition. I hope it doesn't take too long.

  2. That's great news!! Glad they are keeping you busy!!!:bonk: :bonk: :bonk:

    HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!

    Happy New Year to everyone and I hope Christmas was great for you all. All is well with me and the hubby. He wasn't able to go back for the funeral because we just could not get a ticket for him. He is ok with it though. He received his green card within three weeks. However, last week he finally went to apply for the social security card, so perhaps he will get it this week. He already has a job lined up for him and he is eager to work. He is studying for his driver's permit, but he has to wait for the social security card before he can go in and take it.

  3. :yes: and :no: I was more pissed that I have to spend so much $$$ traveling back and forth, hired a lawyer and got ripped off, but that is done and over with since we are now married. Now they want a joint interview 4/1/11. Cant you believe April's Fool of all day? :shocked: well hopefull all goes well at the interview. What is the waiting period for visa after the interview?

    I hope you sent in a lot of evidence to prove the legitimacy of your relationship when you filed the I-130. My husband and I made sure to get everything in and checked every document thoroughly. I sent in pretty much all of our evidence (e.g. photos, letters, cards, money transfer receipts, phone records showing text messaging and phone cards) when I sent in the petition. Well good luck with everything.

  4. Tom I am soooooooo happy for you!! I just logged on to see what was going on with your case!!!:dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

    Now all of us pretty much are done with the process, so glad that it turned out ok for you and your wife Tom!!!! I hope and pray she will be here by Christmas so you can spend it together!! YAYYYY!!!!(F) (F) (F)

    A bit of bad news guys. My husband's dad died last night. My husband did not receive his resident card or social security card yet. He wants to travel back to Guyana to make arrangements for the funeral. I'm not sure how to proceed. Does he file the I-131 and schedule an infopass? :( :( :help: :help:

  6. My wife got her interview at the American Embassy in Amman on Nov 2.

    My wife sent in her passport and my original divorce docs (as requested) via Aramex on Nov 7. We are still waiting for her visa. She was told she was approved at the interview. She is pregnant in the second trimester now and we need to be together. I never knew it took so long to get the visa. I sent the American Emassy in Amman a second email on Dec 5 and I have not recieved a response as of yet. Hopefully, we'll get something soon.

    Good Luck everyone!!!

    Thank you and ditto to you with the hubby and the impending holiday season. We are done with this crazy process for now.

  8. Thanks OBX. Hard to believe all this for one little paper not being the Original. And we got the original to them in 2 days. I just hope they dont find something else after all this waiting and then its back to the bottom again. Been there and done that. Well they cant mess with me much more. They have done their worst so not much more they can do. If push comes to shove I will live their. That will be good for the Philippine economy...ha ha

  10. Silly me... I refreshed my screen to see if your timeline (in blue) was really counting down... :bonk:

    LOL, at first I thought, Loto has a strange countdown ticker. Then I started laughing at myself for even thinking that because it was obvious that he was controlling his own countdown ticker.

    And I wouldn't say it is good bye because most of us will be active again on this site in two years. I will come bye and check out the site regularly though, so to keep up with the happenings. I have learned a lot on this site.

  11. Yippppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!! Congrats to you juju!!!!! When is your husband's POE? Now you can rest a bit and prep the house and your life for your husband!!! Yay!!!

    Good luck to those who have interviews today! :D

    Thanks Teya!!! Well, tomorrow he will purchase his ticket after he picks up his passport. SO he will be her either on Thursday or Friday. I can't wait to see him. :blush:

    I will be looking out for you; hoping that you get an interview date soon.
