VERY NERVOUS!

[Cool_Together 0]

I am still reeling from paying FEDEX $111.63 to mail my fiance everything he will need for his interview (at some point). It was being shipped from VA to Pakistan and I wonder if anyone else has faced this kind of shipping fee for their documents overseas???. Good lord I wonder if DHL would have charged the same?? Anyway, I sent pics, I-134 plus supporting documents, and proof of relationship (newer signed affidavit of intent, cards, original tickets, copies of I-129 etc.). It was 13x11x2" weighed 3.25 lbs and I mailed it Friday the 16th & he should have it on Friday 23rd. I'm just wanting him to get it so he can get his medical and wait for packet 4 & hopefully get an interview date soon. I'm prepared for AP since it is Pakistan but I'm becoming extremely nervous with all the terrorist activity in his area of Lahore. I was so freaked out about him having to go to the police station to get his certificate and the bombings at police stations there in his city around the same time!! OMG he says its a part of paki life but I've never gotten used to it........sooooo scary. I guess it's no different than people going off & shooting each other here but still. I'm gonna be a nervous wreck on his interview day at the embassy. Please pray that all will be safe. Inshallah it will all go smoothly from this point.

I miss my honey too much!!

That sounds about right. It's $35-45 for me to ship things from Canada to the US.

Did you send it "International Priority" or "Regular" through FedEx? This sounds like priority, given the expected delivery time of 7 days. For this shipment, your expense was worth it, to expedite your Fiance's arrival.

For routine stuff, you may want to consider regular FedEx delivery, which is about 14 days and less than half the price.

All the best.

23rd delivery... They said that was the ECONOMY service! Priority was delivery today the 19th for $120 something. I guess it sounds like that was what others have paid so at least I'm not alone.
