Middle East and North AfricaTransition time for kids

Thank you all for your comments.
Sundrop- I appreciate your thoughts and reflection on what my son may be thinking. You are right. He has been the "man" around here for a while..and I think you hit it on the nail with the idea that he may be protective of me and worried.
This temporary living arrangement is just for sleeping. We plan to be involved in each other's life from the minute he steps off the plane. I plan to have him here; us going places; the whole 9-yards. I am trying to be sensitive to the feelings of my children (which all good parents SHOULD) while at the same time being sensitive to my new relationship and making a transition that works for us as a family.

Baj



Good luck Bajih! I think you have the right idea. Indeed I do beleive that your son has been the man of the house for so long, he probably is very protective of you. And I also think that he may be jealous of another man moving in on his territory. I hope things work out for you and in time yor son comes to accept your fiance.

Middle East and North AfricaOnce there here!
Aw sorry Cheryl. Mine talks to his mom several times a week and he don't seem to miss Morocco at all. Or at least he don't say he does. I know he misses family but he talks to them every chance he gets. And it seems he don't care if we get back there at all. I figured that he'd be in a hurry to get there since its been more than 2 years. I'm the one thats antsy to get there its been almost 3 years for me. LOL.

Middle East and North AfricaCall from senator's office today

I received another call from my senator's office this morning regarding why Ahmed's visa was denied. USCIS did not give out that information. All of you have said that most of the time that information cannot be found out, but I had to try. Also USCIS cannot give a timeline. I was given the advice to wait on USCIS to review my returned petition. I am considering moving to Morocco. Does anyone know if I can get my medications there, one in paticular, Actos?



I had considered moving to Morocco at one point, but am also on meds. my husband told me that medication there is very expensive, and there also might be a possiblity that they do not carry some of your meds. I found a medication in Morocco for my exzema that I can not get here, so its possible that u can't get what you need there also.
Good Luck!

Middle East and North Africahow i can start the rest of the process on k3

Hey Mounir good to see you again! My husband arrived 2 weeks ago and he is also K3. Looks like you and me are doing this AOS together.

We have printed off the many forms needed, the G325, the I864 and the I485. We both need new passport size pics. Ibrahim needs a new medical (his is more than one year) I need 6 months of paystubs from my work. Still searching for my tax records from 2008 & 2007.

After it is all sent in, you will get a letter to go for your biometrics. About 3 months after your biometrics you will get EAD card, then you can apply for your SS card. About 9 months after filing you will get a letter to go for your interview together. Then........greencard. If married less than 2 years...you will get a 2 year card. If married more than 2 years, you will get a 10 year card.

Jackie & Ibrahim (F)



jackie, why do YOU need a passport pic? Kamal and I only had pics for him not me! That would be for his greencard!

Middle East and North AfricaLET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR RED FLAGS
This is just so bizarre blink.gif I actually felt ill reading Aimee's post on her "story" I dont know Aimee, nor Heather, but my god, my heart breaks for Heather and what she went thru with this family who supposedly loved her so much, may she rest in peace. rose.gif

A few things i find so odd is how Aimee listed Heather's "medical condition" ie: poor dental hygiene........she explained it like she is a doctor or something blink.gif

Another thing is why does Aimee have Heather's email password? This whole thing sounds too weird for me unsure.gif

Just when i thought i had seen it all.............wow

Good Luck though Aimee!

Middle East and North Africaagencies for diploma accreditation - Morocco
QUOTE (najia @ Oct 30 2009, 01:40 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hello,

I'd like to apply for a Master Program and I'd like to get my diplomas (bachelor degrees) and transcripts accredited by an agency here in the US (and get the equivalence of the GPA as well). I do have the translation of the documents. However some agencies ask that the transcripts to be sent by the educational institution overseas, a thing that is almost "impossible" from Moroccan universities... so my option is: I send myself the original documents or certified copies to them!!

Does anybody recommend any agency and others to avoid. Answers from people with Moroccan degrees will be a plus.

Many thanks



Try ECE.org. My husband is from Egypt and has a bachelors in accounting. He sent his original degree and transcripts in both English and Arabic and $175 fee. We thought it would help us know what classes he would need to obtain a bachelors equivalent in the US, we were happily surprised to find out that course by course his Egyptian degree matched the USA requirements and has a certificate stating this. He plans to apply for his masters in January. Good luck!!

Laura

Day two of not smoking I keep telling myself it will get easier everyday. Have a good one everyone.






so....you're not smoking *anything*? innocent.gif

I was supposed to quit when the whole house issue was settled but that didn't happen so now I need a new date.

Annie prayers are with you and I hope little Nour is feeling better soon. rose.gif

Jackie congrats on surviving the cutback! That's always a good achievement and you must be relieved!

We never played online games. Heck we barely were able to hold a conversation for more than 5 minutes when his internet cafe computer would freeze up on him. NOrmally we'd meet online, try to communicate, his computer would freeze, I'd call him worried, he'd say hangup I'll get back online, he'd go back online, we'd communicate for 5 minutes, his computer would freeze, etc. I can't imagine what would happen if we added online games to the mix! tongue.gif I'm soooo glad those days are over! I mean seriously although I loved and missed him sometimes it was more of a hassle to meet him online.

Terri I hope you feel better soon you've been sick for so long now! I lost the use of my left arm for almost an hour the other day. Scared the crapola out of me. Seeing the doc to go over the mri I had tomorrow morning so hopefully that will shed some light on things. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired!!!!!

Morning to everyone I missed. I need coffee!!!!!

Hubby wants me to buy up some clothes for his sisters to take with him. (oh shhhhhhh............I'm not supposed to talk about the trip because of the evil eye thing unsure.gif whistling.gif innocent.gif ). Anyhoo I'm at a loss as to what style to get them. From what I remember they wear jeans and long shirts but pretty ones. They're both drop dead gorgeous anyhow so they could wear a potato sack and look awesome but I want to get them something that's in style over in Cairo and I haven't a clue as to what that would be. I tried googling women Cairo but I just get pics of hijabs, etc. or of actresses wearing something they'd never wear like sleeveless dresses, etc. I need help!!!




Bridget, Iknow how you feel about sick and tired of being sick and tired. I feel like I never feel good anymore. Is that the fibromylgia? Man this sucks!

To Jess, hon, i know what you are goin thru. I've been down this road many times. My husband is always telling me to keep people at a distance so you don't get hurt. I am not like tht. If you are my friend, I'm faithful as a dog.
Anytime you need to talk girl, I be here!


GG-congrats on the smoking, I know how hard it can be. I quit 20 years ago. Best thing I ever did!
