Thanks. I am filling out generic I-134... Aren't they all the same? Did you guys fill out something different?


I'd love to meet the guy/lady who makes up those papers...

"10. That I have submitted a visa petition(s) to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) on behalf of the
following person(s). If none, state none."...

The sample says "This question is only for US Citizen who filed family based immigrant sponsorships( Green Card) form I130.

For a non-immigrant visa holder ( like H1, L1 etc) or GC holder this question is logically not applicable so write None or N/A."...

??????????????

I haven't filed any sponsorships in the past... "For a non-immigrant visa holder" - are they talking about me or my SO? I have a citizenship and passport on hand...



With not having mine right in front of me, i can't remember exactly but I think this is where you would put Natalia's name. I think it includes the visa petition you have for her.


Logically it makes sense that her name goes there, but after seeing that example I have doubts...

Once tomorrow comes Liz. You will think about Hunky Punky and not farkle... What time does his plane arrive? Are you bringing your Daughter or just you? How far is the airport from your house?



LOL...yeah, very true!

His plane lands at 1:20 local time....and no, my daughter will be with her dad this weekend so I'm going on my own. And I have to drive 4 hours to pick him up in Houston.


Igor - I didn't have anything notarized either...just signed/dated.


Thank you Liz and Lee..

Quick question about I34:

"11. That I intend do not intend to make specific contributions to the support of the person(s) named in item 3.
(If you check "intend," indicate the exact nature and duration of the contributions. For example, if you intend to furnish
room and board, state for how long and, if money, state the amount in U.S. dollars and state whether it is to be given in a lump
sum, weekly or monthly, or for how long."

Do you put actual number and all that happy jazz or is there more "universal" answer to this nonsense?

EDIT: found this in one of the samples, would that be sufficient?

"I will take care of all the expenses including travel, lodging, boarding, food, medicare and all other expenses during their stay with me in USA."

Thanks.



I forget exactly what I put, but it was along the lines of what you found on the sample. I am certain that would be sufficient.


Thanks Lee. One more question, does it have to be notarized or sig and date is enough?

Good morning Liz. You must be so excited!!!!!

The embassy employees need to follow their boss's advice. "Yes we can" and get us approved already. My god he just won the Nobel Peace Prize.



I am, Lee!!! I'm leaving work early today so I can finish a few things at home but mostly I'm wanting to do a lot so I'll be tired enough to sleep..lol! Not sure I could fall asleep tonight otherwise!


I KNOW! I was shocked when I heard he won that!

One more fruitless phone call to the Embassy. I figured that once Oksana boarded the plane to go back to Novosibirsk, Murphy's law would kick in and we'd be approved already. That is not the case and we are still waiting. AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH. I know that all you can think of right now is Charlie Brown.

Apparently this is all for the best as we should not get married until January. It is bad luck to have a wedding and a funeral in the same year. I am not very superstitious, but Oksana has hers and whatever. It isn't that big of a deal to me so we'll just plan it for sometime in January. Las Vegas is flexible like that.
She is a trooper and is holding it together, taking care of herself and Alisa. Alisa is thankfully not sick.
Thanks everyone for the well wishes and I do appreciate it all. It has been very helpful for me in what has been a very difficult time in my life.

Oksana is now back home and resting. I guess the pressure to get it done quickly is off. I now go back into saving money mode and hope that it doesn't take too long. She is still sick and is staying with her grandmother while she recovers from the flu.


I hope she gets better soon. Natalia is sick too, but went through her medical just fine yesterday.
Morning Liz, all is good, no complains good.gif . I am so excited for you and Pat, just a few more days!

Hiya Igor!


How do we dooo Jamie biggrin.gif?

I'm doing pretty good! I've become addicted to "Hell's Kitchen" on Hulu.com ... It's fun to watch! I'll just add it to my many quirky things I do online.. in addition to Lolcats biggrin.gif

Do you already have tickets booked for your honey?


No, stupid busy sad.gif. Worked all weekend than had to shoot across the state and back ... Need to book asap.
Any recommendations besides kayak.com?

I've used Kayak.com for all my/our flights. He uses Aegean out of Greece with his fathers points but I doubt that does any good for you. We might try to fly him out of England for cheaper but the first flight is with the Aegean air.

Busy is good if the time is going by and you're not a mess!


Heatrow airport ... stay away will ya? Iceland air if you can!

Hell's kitchen... I am hooked on Muppet show... Swedish Chef to be precise biggrin.gif

Yes, trying to keep my brains busy not to go crazy.

I'm looking at tickets and the prices aren't very much different for round trip/one way and we're going to try and fly him out of Heathrow, England because he gets free tickets to there from Athens, hopefully that will all go smoothly. Ahhh.... 64 days.

Carlos: congrats! The pictures were great.

Our ceremony was also really quick. Probably less than 5 minutes. And at the end, the officiant said, "By the power vested in me by the Congress of the United States." I thought that was really funny and almost started laughing. I guess b/c it's DC and not actually a state.

Great pics! thanks for sharing
