United KingdomHaving children after marriage?
Good point about insurance, and make note of when you are covered, so they cannot say you had a pre-existing clame.

Kinda funny to read the topic of this thread, as if having a child after marriage is now unusual. jest.gif

United KingdomPeople between NOA2 and Interview ~2009~
We are very happy to have NOA2,
But is still tough to release all tension until we know interview date.

It does wear on the nerves.
I feel when we know interview date, the ball really starts rolling vs just sitting there for 5 or 6 months

Russia, Ukraine and BelarusEurope or US to meet? Visa questions.
Go to her home town.
She lives there and has a life, so there will be things to see and do.
The 1st visit is best to be at more normal pace.
Save the Holiday for later.
Start your K-1 as soon as you know.

and yes...welcome to the nut house.

Russia, Ukraine and BelarusHow long does it take to travel from a South Moscow suburb to SVO?
Plans go to chaos!
Aeroflot was 1 hour late of flight from Krasnoyarsk to Moscow, and they sat on runway in Moscow another hour...
So she missed her flight to New York devil.gif
Aeroflot put her in motel, and a few meals...but all plans after arrival are in a mess.
A large snow blizzard is heading this way, and should be in New York about the same time she lands on December 19.
(I think she brings Siberia with her)
We may be stuck in New York a few days, as it is a long way home to Alabama by car, with snow blocking the path.

Russia, Ukraine and BelarusHow long does it take to travel from a South Moscow suburb to SVO?
How did it work out?
We decided to wait a couple of weeks after interview to be sure visa was in hand.
I also risked buying the tickets just after we learned of the interview date.
Marina returned to Krasnoyarsk to finish packing and telling goodbyes.

I drive to New York to pick her up this Friday

Russia, Ukraine and BelarusRussian TV in USA & Russian Keyboards
There is also a program that sinses your keystrokes...
It can tell if your typing in English or Russian, and it switches automaticly.
It make a 'ding' sound, and you can bypass if your a bad speller.
You still need to add Russian in your computer setings as a option.

Get her a wireless keyboard, lable it Russian, and you use the wired keyboard...works great.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresVisa Service?
I agree that you can do all of this yourself.
I did hire a lawyer, mostly because I can get frustrated dealing with the government.
And I worried about making mistakes and causing a delay.
It does not seam to be any faster, maybe even slower.
Plus we could plan our life and worry about other things, let the lawyers do all the paper work.

I'm not overly thrilled with my lawyer, as they were on vacation when our NOA2 arrived. devil.gif
And I could have sent to them all but two forms months ahead of time.

Expensive as hell, but nothing about this venture has been economical

You can get the true date of your photos without a date stamp...
Open a photo, and right click...roll down to 'propeties'...click and look at the 'Created' date.
If your camera has correct date, this will match.
If you sized or edited photo...you will see this also.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresDo things go faster when using an Immigration Lawyer?
My future wife had good experiance with the RM...
They were looking for her ex...(large amount of money owed) found only her...
She told them what he had done to her,
They helped her that day, and went looking for him with even more vigor.

If you know about and such groups in America, the RM are about the same, they don't waist time on tourists or individuals, unless you have done wrong.
As doing wrong to a family member, a child or a lady.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresDo things go faster when using an Immigration Lawyer?
Lawyers CANNOT speed the process and generally slow it down by not giving it the priority you would. Given the documents you need, You could download and complete an I-129f package yet tonight and have it out in the mail tomorrow morning. An attorney cannot do that. WILL not do that.

This is about the best example of what a lawyer will do for your money.

I am using a lawyer, and I agree that they waist too much time.
But I did not want to do the paperwork, so I paid for that.

And they are not all the same...I think I got a lazy one.
As Marina has found another K-1 in same city, using a lawyer, started after we did, and they already has interview date, we do not. diablo.gif
