Happy Wednesday MENA Peeps! Todays hubbys 26th birthday! Hes at work right now, but as soon as he gets home he has dinner ready to go! I made oven cooked lamb seasoned with salt,pepper, turmeric, sumac, onion & garlic powder. Rice with vermicilli and chocolate cake.

Hope everyone has a great day. I spent the day with my sister while she had all 4 of her wisdom teeth out. She did fine, but her baby had an emergency and was rushed to the hospital at the very moment she was having her surgery. Its been a LONG day with everything going on !

Good Morning MENA!! Happy Hump Day and September!!!!

Good morning Tamara, Olivia and Andrea. Tamara happy birthday to your husband!!

I can't believe September is already here, 2010 is 2/3 over :o I know the next 4 months will fly by, my kids are already deciding what to be for Halloween!!

I'm up here in Detroit training a new woman we hired to help me out, and I learned she immigrated here 6 years ago on a K3 from China. We've had some very interesting conversations, and she has told me all about her immigration nightmare, and now has be a bit scared :unsure:

Hope everyone has a great day!!!

Passage Revelation 19:11:

11And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

Congrats Olivia, thats great!! :dance:

BTW, how long does it typically take to get an EAD and greencard? Someone told me before it only takes a few months after you do file AOS, but I'm thinking thats not right

Sorry I haven't replied sooner. We've been running errands and then went to a Hare Krishna festival tonight.

From looking at timelines on VJ the EAD is taking anywhere from 50-90 days. We got ours approved in 64 days. AOS or getting the green card in hand is averaging around 100 days right now.

Thanks Andrea! I saw those camels and thought of Egyptian taxi's too! :P

No problem, how was the festival?

Is there a time difference for issuing a greencard between a K-1 & a CR-1? Also, I have read on here a few places but was a little confused about the whole AOS process; is it recommended that you file for AOS right after you marry or do some people wait?
