Evening, all - I left work at noon today, went and got a spa pedicure, then came home and took a nap! I woke up and watched the Bucket List - incredibly sweet movie if you haven't seen it.

Congrats, Auntie Marlita, she's adorable! And I agree JAEng, the pics of your son just get cuter and cuter!

Gill, I agree with you about loving hearing the good stories - I am going to a baby shower next week for a friend who married a JA man on a K1 - they have been married 5 (I think) years, just bought a house, and this is their second child. She is a constant inspiration to me to have faith.

Welcome Army wife - I think you should be fine, as JAEng said - If your overstay was less than one year, then you should be able to adjust no problems - if it was greater than one year, you might have to file a waiver for the overstay - But I know people who have done similar and now have their green cards (not from JA).

Hope everyone has a good weekend - any plans?

I heard something about if the marriage was after more than 60 (or 90?) days in the country, the USCIS would automatically assume there was no intent to marry beforehand.....

I don't think she needs a waiver, I think those are for people abroad.....

I know she'll be just fine

Georgia seems to be the 'happening' place....Only thing I heard it's hard to get jobs there depending on the field...

Army Wife....it is possible you will need a waiver for the overstay. If that is the case, they will tell you at the interview and you will have to deal with it from there. No worries until someone gives you a reason to worry.

I'm going to agree with the other ladies on the intent thing. I think your timing will prove to be just fine. I don't believe you have a thing to worry about there.

I'm also going to agree with the other ladies on the tightening the belt thing. Good times and bad times come and go.....just hold on tight....everything works itself out.

Marlita....she's beautiful.

Thank you Jomo.....was I suppose to fill out the I485 supplement and pay the $1000 penalty fee instead of the regular I485?

Good morning JaEnglish,

I know Charles County is quite, you need to come over her to Prince George's county for a little action. HA Ha. Yes, Maryland is quite, but we love it here. I made it out to the Carribbean market you referred me to and it was great. I'm stocking up on small things that would make my hubsand feel at home, so when he reaches here I will already have those things on hand. I'm also learning to cook some of the dishes from JA. Your little one is very handsome, he reminds me of my son when he was his age. They grow so fast, so enjoy him. I hope you have an ejoyable Saturday. You really should try going to the farmer market over at the National Harbor. It is really nice.
