#2- Do you guys really drink out of those amazing red cups at parties like they do in the movies? Yes, yes we do.


This is true..when my son went away to Santa Barbara University, the first thing he bought was a stack of red plastic cups.

Someone left the snow machine on here, we have proper ground cover here, seems like we might have had a decent chunk of snow earlier this year but it was gone in two days... this snow... will probably stick around (actually it started off more like hail than snow... just little shards of ice piled up on the ground). I just looked at the 10 day forecast on weather.com and it looks like some warm weather ahead... maybe enough to get rid of this snow, I'm a little afraid that there will be some kind of delay with my flight and I won't make it for the interview (worse, I didn't mail the affidavit of support and docs, as I plan to take the docs with me... anyway, the weather has one week to clean up it's act or I'm going to deliver it a sound beating! As long as we don't get another pile of snow dumped on us all should be well!


I talked to my family in Branson and Northern AR this morning and it's a MESS. They may have to have an ambulance come move Gma to a hosp til it all moves on (melts) so she can get her oxygen, etc. Guess it looks like a freaking war zone down towards Harrison wow.gif

Okay finished reading your posts, very interesting!

H.D.: Hope everything is okay with your mom, I pray for doctors to get an accurate diagnose, that pian by the stomach mmm maybe she has kidney stones or maybe there is something wrong with her gall?. I am not a doctor but my sister is.

Stinkerpot: Very cute pic of him in his knees. Where and how did you meet?.

Thanks everyone for sharing your pictures, Here are some of mine:
The one I'm in bikini is in Salinas-Ecuador, and the one in the park is in Santiago-Chile.


Aww I love the bikini pik, that is so adorable!
We met online (cos he saw a pik of me on my HD and he also is a biker) and became "dating war story pen pals" as we were both "misc dating" as I call it...like other one thing led to another and I realized I had to go see this person for real before I could move on...and here we are. We decided to get married a while back but this was our official ring "ceremony" lol this past Jan when I was there. He did it in front of the old old church in Omagh which is special to him and his family. He's precious heart.gif

I've been thinking a lot about my life since I'll actually be getting married pretty soon, and marriage will take some getting used to, one example is instead of saying my "fiancee's name is cherry", I will actually say things like "Sorry mrs jolie, I can't touch your breasts right now, my wife would be angry" or "Sorry Mr. Depp, I can not attend your drunken man orgy, my wife says we must go to church on sunday instead". Of course, how this change in marital status affects others may differ, you may have to turn down different celeberities than me... but the key thing is you must remember to say your wife, instead of your fiancee, and that takes some getting used to.

ETA: Sorry, the august thread got all serious for too long, our ratings are down, had to spice it up so we could attract the younger audiences of december and january filers and get a strong start on the next generation, february filers.


My changes will actually be very similar to yours..."I'm sorry Johnny, I'm married now so you can't touch my breasts....just once...well......oh I better not.........." devil.gif

hey everyone, I am back from India, got back this morning... had an AWESOME time with my SO while I was there for a week... as I was leaving however, her tears nearly brought me to my knees... This past week could not have been more pathetic in terms of Government Inefficiency. Lets hope things can still recover by tonight.. it is Friday after all. Hope all you guys have a GREAT weekend, and best of luck with your NOA2's, ect.



It hurts coming back, it really does but hey we are much closer right?

This what I had to deal with on my way to the airport when I was coming back to Seattle, ughhhhh the pain but still I had to be strong for them.




Awwwwwwwww crying.gif

In some ways being an "old" person makes this easier on us...we've got lots of living under our belts and I think it gives us more patience and also means that our kids our older and or grown and out. It's still hard but I think it's much harder on the young ones here and especially those with young children.

I love USICS....

Chris took off work early yesterday to head down for a 3pm appointment at the DC office and then I never heard from him, I got this email this morning from him:

"I left the office to go downtown to see the folks at USCIS. I got there and the security folks were closing the door at 2:45. I had my little apointment number and they said they were shutting up the building "for adminsitrative reasons" . At this point I had gotten a little hot around the collar. Made some rather rude comments etc and kept pointing out that I had an appointment. More security guards showed up and they threatened to charge me with interfering with a federal employee and disturbing the peace."

He got home and had no power and no charged cell phone so I never got to hear from him till this morning, I am so incrediably pissed off at the whole process right now!!!!!!!

Thanks for the info, Maliciant, very helpful; but a few things for (UK) people to know from your post:

- The medical in the UK takes only an hour or so. No need for 2 days.

- You can't spot HPV as it's a virus that a lot of women already have.. it CAN lead to visible signs given the right circumstances such as warts, but the genital check is simply to make sure you have the right 'equipment'.

- UK medical requires chest X-ray too.

- You're not required to take a pregnancy test in the UK unless you're unsure when your last period was. You may have to take one then, before vaccinations are given. (But usually you've already had the required vaccinations as you can get them for free on the NHS)

- Maliciant is right, you'll be denied for drug usage, period / full-stop. smile.gif


Thanks....t'was helpful. G

Well, she survived the dreaded day 1 of the medical, I always read they take your passport and thought it was on day 1 but they don't take it and keep it until day two. You find out if you passed on day 2 too it seems, though she's not so worried about that now.


There is two days of medical????

I sure am crossing my fingers and toes and ears for everyone that is still waiting and for all of us still muddling through tasks.....

My "task" for the day was getting my Employer letter.....YES I know I should have gotten it a long time ago but thought it would be best to have it "fresh". headbonk.gif I mistakenly believed that I could print off verification from our HR site...actually you have to go through this third party clearing house of some crazy sort. (Does EVERYthing go through clearing houses these days???)

So they tell me that they can't give it to me they have to give it to the inquiring party for a fee. I let them know that I was pretttttty sure that if I tell the American Embassy that they have to call an Insurance Company (regardless of how big and currently embarrasing we are) to ask for something and pay a fee they're head will spin off into space. huh.gif

So, after opening a "work request ticket" it was decided it could be handled internally.......

Moral of the story...if you've not checked into this yet...do so.

Next item: I keep forgetting to ask y'all about this...am I being paranoid in thinking that R and I are being tracked in a system as far as traveling goes? We went to N Ireland to see his family and on the way home out of the WHOLE line of people boarding the plane (after security etc) they chose the two of us ONLY to check our passports. I thought it quite odd....


Hi, why do you need a letter from your employer? Is this to go along with the Affadavit of Support document? And the letter should be from the citizen's employer, not the foreigner? What do you actually have to ask for? (just wondering who I should contact, if I need to, and what to tell them...)

Although according to the VSC, I shouldn't even be worrying about this yet since I still have "probably 5 more months" to wait. mad.gif


I believe it goes with the proof of income/support:
To substantiate the information regarding income and resources the sponsor should attached two or more of the following items to the affidavit.

* notarized copies of his or her latest federal income tax return;

* a statement from his or her employer showing salary and the length and permanency of employment;

* a statement from an officer of a bank regarding his or her account, the date the account was opened and the present balance;

* any other evidence adequate to establish financial ability to carry out his or her undertaking toward the applicant for what might be an indefinite period of time.

My buddy HW and the rest...my words of encouragement came from a former VJ'r near my town that I happen to learn about VJ from. She told me that on those days it seems it will never happen and that you're so lonely you'll never get through, just think about how special this is to all of us, that we would fight this hard for someone we love. Anyone can pick someone up in the local Las Vegas bar and marry them w/out a thought, but to put this much effort into something shows how important and solid it is. She also told me that it feels like a million years right now, but once they are with us, it feels like it was just a blip in our lives.
It will come soon for you all (NOA2s) and all of us will be living happily ever after (and driving our SO's mad) very soon.
Hugz to you all and to myself as well.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAugust 2008 Filers
Hi Friends...
VERY quick note to say I made it to UK safely and before I enjoy the next two weeks thouroughly..had to share my immigration experience with you.
I was under the stupid assumption that if you were traveling THAT way and not the direction the SO is moving to it was not an issue to them...WRONG.
I made the very innocent comment 'seeing friends and family' and that led to what family, where are we getting married, who is moving where, when were the papers filed, who do i work for and what do i do...etc....i was sure i could be heading back to california for ####'s sake...
once i gave her the processing dates and she was happy i was going to try to stay here...she smiled and let me go.
SO, if you come this way..just don't be surprised!
ciao....gwenna

ok here is a thought. i've always heard whatever you are doing when the clock strikes the new year thats what you will do most the tiime the rest of the year. so everyone write obama and tell him to make uscis work from 11:30 to 1:30 am new years eve


Geez I hope that is not true as I'll be halfway over the Atlantic....
Happy New Year to you all....xoxoxo G
