Yep :/ Unfortunately. She didn't want to let me out of the contract... but she gave me a big speech about how she's working for me, and to leave the worrying to her, and all that jazz. We might consider lowering the price soon... but I don't want to go too low, because I did a lot of renos in here when I bought the place, and I want to at least break even after all that is considered. Probably would've been better if I could've hung onto the place for a few more years, but alas... love struck ;)

Nice ;) We are all waiting for the good news :thumbs:

That's correct, 1-2 weeks. We decided to go after a week to see if they had me on the system and they did. So I landed Friday 12th, applied at the SSN office the following Friday 19th, received my SSN card Friday 26th :)

Wow, congrats :D so let's hope my fiancee's record be in the system in a week :D good news is, they don't require SSN for marriage license in our county ;)

So I entered IAD last Tuesday, I couldn't feel more welcome than this time!

A day after sandy hit the east coast there was no line at all at customs and I was the first to arrive at the non US citizens line. A friendly officer helped me who seemed to be very excited about us getting married. She checked everything quickly and asked some questions. After that she told me I have to go to desk B just to let them double check all the paperwork but that I'm good. 2nd officer was as nice as the first one. He just checked the paperwork and called me to his desk to say: welcome to America and Congratulations!

I'm here now a week, finally over my jet lag and all stress relief. Wedding is this Saturday. I can't believe it's finally here!
