K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	January Filers at the CSC - How are you doing?	Well I guess it's good for those people who have to get 5 or 6 shots! It's a shame that you couldn't get the HPV vaccine included, though! 27 years of age seems such an arbitrary cut-off point. And thank you for the well-wishes! There are filers approved before us who I also hope get their interview date very soon. Really, any January CSC filer receiving an interview date will be a milestone for this thread! Ugh...my period just started and I only had one two weeks ago. I'm used to 5-6 weeks between periods; it's often late, but never early. Never been less than 4 weeks. Plus I feel a little woozy. I've checked and neither of those things is listed as a side effect of the MMR so, uh, maybe I'll blame the visa process on playing havoc with my hormones.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	January Filers at the CSC - How are you doing?	I am indeed under the age of 27 - I am 24, will be 25 when I emigrate! That is strange about the medical fees. We pay a rate here for the medical, blood results and x-ray and any injections on top of that are extra. That's why I am getting them done beforehand, as even if I have to pay privately they will be cheaper than at the medical (for example, £80 for one HPV injection with my doctor compared to £115 for one HPV injection with the London medical people). So you paid for it but couldn't have it done?	Alex & Rachel	Female	England	2008-06-02 06:58:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	January Filers at the CSC - How are you doing?	Well, I had my MMR today, free on the NHS! The nurse was really nice, said to return next week and she'd have had a thorough look over my records (she couldn't believe I'd only had 3 shots since I was born) and inquired about the HPV vaccine for me (which I have to have done privately, £80 a shot). She also said that the NHS doesn't cover medical advice for immigration purposes and that technically they're supposed to charge me, but that they're fairly liberal and usually waive the fees.

I can't really help with the rest, but the marriage certificate will need to be picked up in person - recommended a month or so in advance. I believe it is then valid for three months (but you have to get married within three months anyway). I understand that it's also better if you can both go in person to get the marriage certificate, although I don't believe it's a requirement. This is all just what I understand from reading websites. where do we have to go inorder to get marriage certificate? where should we register? According to this the requirements are: QUOTE Both parties must appear in person and bring valid picture identification to the County Clerk’s Office to apply for a marriage license in California. Valid picture identification is one that contains a photograph, date of birth, and an issue and expiration date, such as a state issued identification card, drivers license, passport, military identification, etc. Some counties may also require a copy of your birth certificate. If you have been married before, you will need to know the specific date your last marriage ended, and how it ended (Death, Dissolution, Divorce or Nullity). Some counties may require a copy of the final judgment if your previous marriage ended by dissolution or nullity. Marriage licenses are valid for 90 days from the date of issuance. If you do not get married within 90 days, the license will no longer be valid. You must purchase a new license. So it looks like you DO have to both be present in order to obtain the certificate.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	January Filers at the CSC - How are you doing?	He's been attending an English class this semester, but had overslept and missed the past four lessons and was very discouraged. He also had an essay due in today - a 6-7 page argumentative essay. At 3 am his time he had 1 page, and was thinking of skipping class and failing the course. So I told him to go to bed and wrote half the essay for him, then woke him up at 8 am and we finished the paper together. He went to class, is still in class (don't think the teacher noticed his absence) and was allowed to hand the paper in half an hour late. I even *shudder* had to make sure that I used American spellings for him. I know it was a really, really naughty thing to do, but I'm not going to make it a regular occurrence!

LOL. But seriously We will NEVER be ready so might as well go for it if it is something we know we really want right? I have my daughter Gabby who just turned 6 but I am seriously considering trying to get pregnant this November/December time frame. I know we do not have much money etc but again who ever does really? I know we want a child together so might as well try and get it done since I will then be 30 and Gareth 31 and yes the clock starts ticking haha....twins at 41 wowsa!!! That sounds tiring to me for sure but I am sure they don't regret it one bit! You sound exactly like my mother! She and my dad had me when they didn't have much money at all - and they coped. Babies don't know if everything they wear and play in is second-hand. We had more fun playing in cardboard boxes when our toys were in storage than with many other things - children can be very creative! I don't believe I suffered. And my mother would also say, 'you never feel ready', too. They certainly don't regret the twins; they may not have been planned but my parents appreciate having a large family now. Even though my mother had them with very few complications I do know she found it a lot harder; your body is just that little less bit able to cope. She was hospitalised for most of the last two months of her pregnancy. I also think it'll be nicer for Gabby to have a sibling that is as close in age to her as possible. I love the twins to bits but they feel more like my nephew and niece (I left home when they were 3) and it's a very different family dynamic. Having siblings closer in age to me also made it a little easier for my parents - we'd often play together and occupy ourselves, so my mother could cook/clean the house and not always have to keep an eye on us.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	January Filers at the CSC - How are you doing?	Welcome DramaKingandQueen! sunnybear - I forbid you to think such dreadful things. Besides, look at Cecile - she watched all of us January 11th filers receive our approvals which must have been extremely hard - but then she herself was approved a week later. Jereon - awesome! It must feel fantastic. I'm going to the nurse on Monday but that's just to discuss vaccinations; I may go to the doctor about a couple of minor things while it's still free, though! sunny - I've discussed Alex being a kept man, too. He's getting a rather good deal; he's importing me with the view to me working full time while he studies (or perhaps looks after the children ). I'm not sure I can wait to have kids until he's finished school - that could take years and then one of us (probably him, as I'd have more work experience) would have to stay at home anyway. I'd really, really not want to wait beyond 30 as I'm concerned about fertility (having had an aunt who experienced 8 years of fertility problems I'd rather not take the risk). I'd also not want to be too old a parent. My mother had twins aged 41 and I think she and my dad find it a little tough being in their 50s and having youngsters sometimes.

It's probably easier now, after spending so much time together, and it will be easier after more months in the USA. but it's quite scary to go to a country where I can only understand half of the people! So maybe I'm going to start typing some of my emails in both languages, and then ask him to make small sentences (with the words I'll have explained in my emails) and if it's correct there will be a reward It must be very scary! I am so grateful that I will not encounter a language barrier; although I still frustrate Alex by making him order things for me in shops. And that sounds like a plan; good luck! I am not always good at speaking English myself. Accents aside, I stammer sometimes and say 'um' a lot. When I write I can revise what I have written and make amendments if necessary. I day-dream a lot and when I am speaking my mind often wanders and I end up breaking off mid-sentence because I have completely forgotten what I was talking about!

Would you have any ideas? Not even married yet and she's already trying to change her man I suggest he make his way down to Barnes & Noble and get a CD set that he can listen to and practice with while driving. There are many language instruction programs in French to choose from. Forget about him learning to write the language since seemingly half the letters in words are not pronounced. Of course if you set a reward system for his good efforts then he will be quite motivated to learn. It's an easier language to speak than to read (at least that's my take). This, this is my biggest peeve with French. I don't know of any other language that uses so many letters to communicate what emerges from the mouth as a few mumbled syllables. I don't know if it is just me, but I have real difficulty distinguishing distinct sounds in spoken languages, even sometimes in English. I watched anime regularly for years in the original Japanese language and picked up maybe one or two words. Other people picked up whole phrases! I've always found writing and reading easier. I'm also doomed to failure to speak a great number of languages as I cannot roll my Rs. Edited by Alex & Rachel, 23 May 2008 - 10:40 AM.	Alex & Rachel	Female	England	2008-05-23 10:38:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	January Filers at the CSC - How are you doing?	I was hopeless at French at school, by the way! I was pretty decent at writing and reading - and I did receive an A-grade for my finals in high school - but when I went and stayed with my mother's penfriend's parents in France for a couple of weeks I found it very difficult to communicate with them. I had never been taught by a native speaker and so I was unfamiliar with how the French pronounced French words. I also found the speed at which French was spoken was a good deal faster than I was used to hearing in school. Several times I had to retrieve a dictionary and point to words to try and get my meaning across. I've forgotten pretty much all of the French I learned now, of course. Practise really does make perfect and I haven't had any reason to use French since I was 16. I really wish I could speak another language but it is hard to find the discipline required to learn one, especially when you are not exposed to any foreign languages in any capacity. Learning to read and write the basics would be a lot easier.	Alex & Rachel	Female	England	2008-05-23 10:30:00

QUOTE (BlakeandOlha @ May 21 2008, 02:34 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yup, it just arrives without you having to lift a finger. Have you got all your information together yet? The police cert takes the longest I hear (In the Ukraine it can take up to two months), so if not, then you might want to get crack'n on that. Not yet, but the new police certificate they have just released in the UK takes a maximum ten days to arrive; many people have been receiving it in four-five days. It's only valid for six months, not a year, so I was going to send off for it once packet 3 arrived. And come on US postal system!	Alex & Rachel	Female	England	2008-05-21 08:42:00
