Just wanted to fill you in on my progress, as some might find this useful. I am finally in the US on my K1 visa!!

This is how it went down in brief: I managed to pick up my passport from the courier's yesterday, Saturday 11th. This was after a long-winded story of where I was supposed to pick it on Monday 13th but called the couriers crying and they told me if I called back at 8am I could pick it up from a different depot on Saturday 11th instead. Why was I crying you ask? What difference can 2 days possibly make?? Well, I'm supposed to be getting married on Sunday 19th and didn't want to postpone if I could help it.

So at 8.40am, the lovely customer service rep told me if I hurried I could catch my package at the Staples Corner depot. I hopped in a cab, the cab accidentally went up the M1 motorway (but that's another story), went to pick it up, and rebooked my Virgin flight from outside the depot by a loud motorway. YAY I was on the 8.05pm flight to JFK that very evening.

Now, if any of you plan on flying in to JFK, it is sometimes quick but more often than not, its chaos. This was last night. People were in line for 3 hours just to get in the country as visitors. So, I said to the supervisor that I didn't want to stand in that line, "look I have a packet!!" He took me to another line cos he felt bad for me, and then another line, and after a long wait, I saw the CBP officer who opened my packet, put some stamps in, and then took me to that room where they finish the processing. This room is not what I imagined. I kind of felt like I was in a police station. Loads of rows of chairs and people waiting to be called for all sorts of reasons. Some guy was brought in in handcuffs!?! US citizens and minors take priority, so it took at least 45 mins before the officer picked up my file - I could see it stacked in the inbox just waiting. I watched from my chair as she did some stuff on the computer, then she called me over, said "You have to get married by xxxxx" and then handed me my passport. Woohoo! Poor fiance was waiting for 3 hours total. But I made it!!!! Hooray! Now I just need to get married in a week. Eeek.

Looking forward to hearing more stories of progress!
