Thanks! It was a wonderful day. I could not have been happier with the way everything turned out. The wedding was outside in a park so we were very concerned about the weather but we woke up to a beautiful clear sunny day. Whew! About 60 people attended. Everyone was so happy for us, knowing what we went through to get to this moment. It was so hard not to cry as I walked down the isle, seeing all our family and friends and seeing the big smile on his face.

I'm looking forward to relaxing and enjoying time together. Not looking forward to starting on the AOS package. lol

CONGRATULATIONS on your wedding day(F) May you have long and happy life together

thats fantastic, glad it was sunny for you. I knew you would have cried, hehe, ahhh relax now, you deserved it for a few weeks.

I'm not being very good at getting the AOS package sorted out, it seems so painful, especially the medical part of it, which is confusing the heck out of me. I'm procrastinating.

First of all, congrats Patti!! What a relief to finally be married! So happy for you!

Sorry that I haven't been around at all lately but I went to visit my fiance for Christmas and New Years and couldn't log in for some weird reason. I'm back now, and finding it absolutely miserable without him. Somehow it's a lot harder to cope this time than it was in June when we knew we'd be apart for even longer Anyway, I'm now getting the last bits together before sending package 3 back to the London embassy, also need to book my medical this week. Hearing some depressing things about how long the London embassy takes to issue an interview date though so not feeling good at the moment. I really hope this won't drag on past March you guys I'm in need of a pep talk...

it is hard, harder the closer you get (IMO), but you are so close, and like Patty said, once you are there, you forget about the time it took and the distance and separation. c'mon Lucy, the quicker you get your package 3 together, the quicker you will get an interview.

Did you get a DS 3025 (Vaccination Record) when you had your medical? You do not need to have another medical since you just had it for the K1. You are not required to submit the I-693 but it's a good idea to submit the DS 3025.

We got one, and I just made a copy of my DS 3025 and included it with my AOS package.

What does the blue sheet actually say. It has to state the request for additional information, etc....

Your visa case is currently undergoing necessary administrative processing. This processing can take several weeks. Please follow any instructions provided by the Consular Officer at the time of your interview. If further information is needed, you will be contacted. If your visa application is approved, it will be processed and mailed/available within two business days. Under the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act, Immigrant Visas for "Diversity Visas" cannot be issued after September 30th of the year in which you were selected to apply for a Diversity Visa. For example, entrants into the Diversity Visa Program in Fall of 2011 were selected for Diversity Visa 2012 Program, and selectees MUST apply and receive their visa prior to September 30, 2012 otherwise they lose eligibility to receive a Diversity Immigrant Visa, regardless of additional administrative processing. In addition, please note that some immigrant visas may not be able to be issued if the annual numerical limit for that category has been reached.

Omer, you are the beneficiary correct? It is very common in middle eastern countries for males to undergo additional administrative processing. From what I understand you can do nothing but wait, I would check out your regional portal on this forum, and discuss with others in similar situations, I think there might be a section about administrative processing.

yes, but I think its the other way around, the vaccination is the I-693.. anyway, I had it, but Honolulu POE requested my x-rays, apparently they do this and the immigration officer was annoyed that I was not aware that I needed to hand it over, so the problem was, I had put my copy of the vaccination record in the x-ray envelope and totally forgot, so now its lost in the vortex of immigration land and it could be forever to get it back if I tried that path, rather than risking just telling them 'you already have it, check the x-ray envelope' I requested another copy from the doctor in Sydney. the bit i'm confused about, is the civil surgeon thing...

so I now have everything except the vaccination record, the i-864, when hubby works 14 hour days, its hard to nag him about these things. He will get on to it though, and my photos. got everything else, copied, and ready... oh, haven't signed as I'm still figuring out what my new signature is going to be. haha.

v.cute photo Patty.
