My husband and I met in Taiwan in October 2008 and have been a couple since November 2008. We lived together blissfully in Taipei until August 2009 and then in London until December 2009, when I had to come back to the States. He visited me for two and a half weeks in June 2010, and we got married. Our visa journey officially began in August 2010. We will rendezvous in Italy over the winter holiday for another two weeks, and hopefully we will be reunited for good not too long after that!
I love seeing the estimated processing date move forward ever so slightly as the wait goes on. It still seems impossibly far away, but it gives me the tiniest bit of hope.
