Today my wife received her passport, with K3 visa, together with the sealed packet, from DHL.

As I understand it, she has 6 months from issuance of the visa (which was probably last Thursday) to enter the USA for the first time with this visa. Since we have some matters to attend to over there, she won't enter immediately.

This has been, and will continue to be, a great resource for us as we go through this process. Thanks to all who helped us along the way.

:dance: Congratulations, Novotul ! :dance: I'am happy to finally read your VISA IN HAND long awaited post. :star:

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
