IF GOD OPENS A DOOR FOR YOU CAN'T NO DEVIL :devil: IN HELL CAN CLOSE IT!!!!!!!!!

My life took a downward spiral once we learned we had to obtain a Police Report from China. After several failed attempts trying everything from emails to the consulate, embassy, phone calls, faxes you name it we done it. So now I'm getting frustrated :angry: :angry: , it has been way to long not to get the police report. Shortly after that I wrote a letter to the NVC stating the effort and difficulty in obtaining a Chinese Police Report. I had my husband write a letter saying he committed no crimes in China, we sent the emails over a months times showing that we have made an effort to get it but we can not. I sent the documents back to the NVC on November 30 with a prayer and belief that the Police Report from China will be waived.I sent it overnight delivery and guess what the mail was misrouted so it did not get to the NVC until Monday December 3. :crying::crying: After nearly 2 months of getting no where my husband finally found someone that said they could help. We were so overjoyed and excited :thumbs: that we would get the Police report and be able to send the information back to the NVC in a few days once the Police report arrived to me from China.Just in case they still requested it i wanted to have something tangible to give them. A few days later the guy that "said " he wanted to help now says he want $350.00 for his labor plus the cost of the report. $350 is a lot of money for a report and labor. Naturally I prayed about it and the lord said I will be all you need and my word shall not come back void. I told my husband that we will not be using the so called friend in China to get the Police report. He was convinced that the guy was trying to help us. After I told Joshua someone that wants to help would not charge you $350 and I must obey God, after all God spoke that word to me. So we did not bother the guy in China no more. Yesterday someone from the Nigerian Embassy called me and told me that the request was finally being processed but I should give it a few months and be patient. She was very nice and told me to call her from time to time to check the progress. I was happy with that because after 2 months at least she did find the time to call and talk with me. I went to bed last night and prayed a Jabez prayer asking God to Bless me indeed. This morning I awoke with a prayer on my tongue and a real strong urge to call the NVC automated system to see what it will say. To my surprise it said YOUR CASE WAS COMPLETED ON DECEMBER 13, 2007 AND TO ALLOW 6-8 FOR FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS........I just hung the phone up because I was in shock. Immediately i went into screaming and praising the name of the Lord. I danced a while in my house all by my self :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: . God Is Good and his mercy endureth forever.

I want to know what Do we do now do we wait for someone to tell us when to go for the medical or do we make our own appointment?

How long does the medical results last?

Is there anymore paperwork involved and how should we prepare for the interview.

I just want to be prepared since we waited so long for this trial to be over and I certainly Thank God that he gave us the strength to Endure this test. God Bless you all that have shared a prayer,a word of encouragement, or any advice. When God has a blessing with your name on it. NO ONE CAN TAKE IT AWAY.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND I LOVE YOU,

JOSHUA AND SHAREE

CASE COMPLETE (THANK YOU JESUS) December 13, 2007

.....Dont you know that Gods Favor is more precious than Life....

I never would've Made it without You Jesus.....He allows some things to Run there coarse, but have no fear God is in Control......He has the VERY LAST say So and he will perform his word.

Congratulations!!!!!

I think you make the appointment for the medical and the results are good for a year.

If there is any other paperwork involved it will be sent to your husband from the embassy in Lagos.

For the interview make sure you send your husband proof of your relationship as well as other documents that will be included in packet 3 and 4.

Woot woot. Good legwork.

I personally would wait to see we are told to go for the medical. I don't trust that the Embassy or USCIS wouldn't change the venues without prior notice. However, it may not be a bad idea to scope out the currently clinics they use and prepare for it. :dance:

The longer it takes to introduce yourself the less you've actually accomplished

I see your happy, congrats, I can also remember the stress of trying to get my ex-husband here with me. I prayed , oh how I prayed. I asked God to block it , if it wasen't meant to be all of that. I called my congress rep and all. Then he arrived, everything was fine up to signing the adjustment of statis papers.

From your timeline, I can see that you pretty much married a stranger. You had internet communication but your didn't spend quality time with this man, neither did I , I brought the love of my life into America, I didn't realize his true colors until filing his adjustment papers.

Girl, you married someone you barely know, and I wish you all the best, but to be honest, you only have a 50-50 chance at your marriage working once your husband gets here and get adjusted to life here.

You don't know if your husband was already married to some little girl in the village or what. But you provided him with a free pass into America, just as I did my ex-husband.

Once he gets here it'll be his choice to stay with you. You will not know if u have been used or not untill it's too late. Good luck to u.
