      Hi Dan! How are you coming along? Hooray for you! You made it through the muck!! We are still waiting to hear back. All we have received is the confirmation that the packet was received. Hoping that it will come soon, so he can look for a job when he is ready. We had planned for him to take a year off, but I may have screwed it up by having a major surgery this week. I guess if it's not one thing, it's another!

      So...did you say that you got a job somewhere, aw...

      Hiya! I started work the week after my EAD came through - I was lucky in that the company I worked for in Vancouver had connections in Seattle. My Greencard came the week after I started work. Looking at your timeline, you should have Graham's EAD soon and he can start earning! How is Graham enjoying the PNW? I hope your surgery went well and that you're doing fine. It feels great to finally be done for at least two years. Looking forward to getting married again in Jul...

      How's it going for you? I've been out after having a big surgery. Not back to work yet, but I'm hoping they will release me in a few more weeks. We got a Biometrics appointment scheduled. Any tips for that? Sounds like everything was so smooth for you. We still have no EAD, and no green card. He's enjoying it here, but has spent the last four weeks taking care of me. Poor guy. He will need the summer off to recuperate!

  3. EAD arrived last week, started work on Monday, Green Card interview yesterday was successful, too! Life is great!

  4. Green card interview on 9th of March! Better make the most of my free time!

      Well, I wish I had a fabulous trip planned too, but I don't. Good for you guys!! Really, really exciting. Sounds like you two are professional travelers! :D

      We just sent off paperwork for the green card and EAD. Hoping for all the paperwork to be correct, and we'll be happy.

  5. biometrics done! Roll on Green card and work EAD.

      Congrats you will do great!!!! I am so happy for you two!!! If you guys are ever up in Wisconsin you should stop by and we will grab some dinner!!!

    3. Dan and Drury

      Dan and Drury

      Thanks Girls! My police cert. from the UK is out of date, so my visa will be approved pending that. My mum is on the case, though, so should have that next week. I'm told it's just a case of popping into the consulate once getting it and then waiting the two days for issue of Fiance visa.

      My US fiance is from Detroit and we did get up near Wisconsin a few years ago, so you never know, we might drop by at some point. Same goes for you if you make it to Seattle at any...

  24. Medical passed! One more step and I'll be able to start planning my move to Seattle!!

      no can't figure out if they logged us in yet and whether we can send the p3 back yet we are ready just need the okay!

    3. Dan and Drury

      Dan and Drury

      Just do it and email them to see if they receive your fax. Waiting for the consulate usually leads to lengthy waits for nothing.

      Thanks I will just tell Nick to do it!!! Thanks for all your help!!
