what a brilliant quote!

as a brand spanking new resident of Texas, I might need to get me one of those

but perhaps on a tea towel; I don't wear that many t-shirts

I have a t-shirt I am wearing that says "California Summer Love" which I thought was apt

Well, Milena and I have an interview on Tuesday afternoon. While it is related to the I-130 and not the immigrant visa (they want to establish that we have a bona fide relationship, apparently), I thought we would join this thread that I been watching enviously since February. Wish us well!

Oh, and who performs the regular interviews? The immigrant visa unit? I'm just wondering if it is the same people who will be performing our interview, the US citizenship and immigration services.

He said it to the somebody like the Tennessee legislature after they failed to re-elect him. There's more than t-shirts available.

The people who do the I-130 are separate from the visa unit. I know, if she is still there, the lady that runs the I-130 office and she is very fair and a real nice person.

That's a slight comfort. We are trying to gather as much evidence as we can before Tuesday. In mid-May they requested signed affadavits (legalized by a solicitor) from three colleagues and myself, vouching for our bona fide relationship. We also sent our joint bank statements and bills from our apt in London. This time we are taking pictures from the wedding and and invitation and pictures from all over the world over the past nine months, samples from nine months of emails/messenger chats...plus flights that we took together. I suppose this should all have been sent in in May, but I thought the affadavits and joint bank account statements would be enough.

I don't mean to hijack this threat. We just feel this is not going well for us, and I'm really glad to hear the person in charge of I-130 is fair and nice. Maybe she can get us a DS-230 interview soon, ie forward our application right away, because we have waited a very long time, have all our police certificates ready, and would love to get on the road...

Hopefully Stu and I will hear something soon. I know there's people that have been waiting much longer than us, but we've been waiting since November and we're starting to get a little impatient

We just got our interview date, July 18th. IT's two months later than expected, but

[Jeffries 0]

Have mine scheduled for June 24th - whoopee!

*just noticed the mysterious VJ log-off ghost cut off half of my last post*

... but at least we have a date (July18th). I could go on and on whining about how we are just about the last filers from our month to have their interview, which we are, but what good would that do at this point. Grrrrr.

We do have one question. In the interview letter, the $130 fee is quoted in american dollars (versus pounds for the courier). What type of funds should he bring to pay the interview fee with... dollars or pounds?
