      Hi there! :) How's life treating you?

  3. Hi ! We are doing good, thanks :) we are staying with my parents right now in the finished basement. It's hard, we can't decide on a place we like, theres some I like, some he likes, we just can't find one that speaks to both of us :) I hope we will soon though, really wanted to be on our own for the holidays, well I mean have our own place, but no such luck yet :(

  4. hows everyone doing? it seems quiet around here on my page and everyone else who was approved. I hope you are all doing well ! I have just found a dress for our wedding celebration with our families and his friends all coming over. and we're getting ready for the holidays and looking at homes for us :)

We're still waiting for our AOS to be looked at... it's currently sitting at the CSC, just waiting to be looked at. Tick Tock. lol

      At least, they will be less confused by driving on the right side of the road. :) I drove in UK for a month, gosh, that was so confusing to me!! And lei, I see exactly what you mean, roads are so large here, it needs some time to make some wide turns and try not to turn too early. :P

      i LOVED the transit in england. i didnt drive at all and i consider myself to be adventerous! i was terrified of all the roundabouts!! it was crazy, bonzai flying across lanes. gimme wide streets and a millions cars piled up side by side anyday.

      I loved not having to drive when I was there, the roundabouts freaked me out !!!! I dunno how they do it and daniel doesn't know how we do without haha

  10. Question ! What do we do about tax season? I changed my last name and got my new social security card, but how do I let them know? or do they just find out when we send them in???

    1. Harpa Timsah

      They figure it out when you send in the new taxes. Your SSN is the same.

    2. lei1111

      lei1111

      i was just thinking about this yesterday too! please let me know what you find out. i hate to pay someone to file my taxes but maybe we should this year. i was thinking "married filing joint" but really have no idea. i was also thinking its too bad i couldnt claim chris as he didnt work 8 months of 2011 =/ wish i new tax laws...

  11. so we have to get a new social security number as he has his green card now, must remember to go tomorrow after looking at new houses.

      Yes lei, you have to keep the SSA informed if your immigration status change. The SSN is the same, but the card won't have the mention "valid for work only with DHS authorization" anymore. Look here: http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/10002.html#a0=6 and here http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/10002.html#a0=2

      good grief. saved by all of you here yet again! thanks so much for the info. we will go on friday. i hope there is no late penalty. thanks again. xo

    4. didopage

      No late penalty at all... some people don't even do it because they don't know, and I don't think it changes much. They will just issue a new card, and I think it's better to do it so no potential problem in the future. :)

  12. daniel goes to orientation tomorrow, and i have safely packed away all our I-129F, AOS and EAD paperwork. yay !

  13. daniel got his permanent residence card today ! hooray !!! so happy its here, now can officially be ok with things. now if only we could find a house!

  14. bit bummed, daniel can't start work cause they have to do a background check and they have to get it back from the embassy and it hasn't gotten here yet :(

  16. i think it's going to be weird to have both of us working at the same time, even though it is a great thing that he has a job.

    1. lei1111

      lei1111

      i think i know what you mean, i felt a bit like a mother hen worring over chris at work all day. it was weird!

      kristinanddan09

      yeah I'm happy for the extra money, I have to get daniel a cell phone now ! haha

  17. he's got a job that promises 40 hours per week doing security instead of the stocking in the backroom. I feel very much relieved :)

  18. daniel got a job ! he went in for the stocking job, but instead got a better paying job with security, and a promise of 40hours/week ! so looking forward to this extra income.

  19. it's official, daniel is approved for his green card, thank goodness. may be a stupid question, but with this he can travel back home can't he? we probably won't do anything til after the wedding but just checking. :)

  20. we had our interview ! the lady said that as long as everything looks good, she wants to look at the file again? he should get his green card in 2 weeks. I was really nervous, and we didn't have to show her much. She asked Daniel all the questions on the form we already sent to them, and showed them pictures we brought, and proof of him being here like on the bank acct and stuff. feeling much better now !
