Today has finally come. I leave for the airport tonight to be reunited with "My HONEY"!!! :dance::dance: After our Interview on thursday I will give everyone an update... Gogo and Nerdette, I keep praying your approvals come in... :thumbs::thumbs:

I would like to ask a question of you if I might? First of all let me say that I saw you are from York, PA, I went to YCP during the 1980's, great little area to grow up. Now for my question... It is not for me but for my brother who has met and since MARRIED a woman from Lima, Peru and has been trying to get a Visa for her to move to the US for more than a year now. Supposedly he keeps getting told it can take up to 3 years to get her a Visa, something does not sound right with this. According to her, she cannot even get a visitor Visa to come here. This does not sound right either. I am beginning to think she is doing nothing more than scamming him as he is now sending her money every month to supposedly pay for the Visa processing.

It does not seem like it took very long for you or others here on this website to get your paperwork processed. Am I just being paranoid?

Thanks,

A Worried Brother

He does not need to send her money for visa processing unless he is sending her money to support her.

First is your bro a USC or resident?

Has he filed the i-130?

I could see a K-Visa taking a while in some cases....but do you know what he filed? Actually, I should say, if he is the US Citizen HE has to have filed for his wife to come. For the visitor Visa, it is very likely that she has been unable to get one, it is a little difficult in Peru.

Hopefully things are on the up and up but there is nothing wrong with paranoia :whistle: (I think it is nice that you look out for you bro)
