At 1:08pm I got the phone call. My fiance, Jose, went into the US embassy at approximately 12:00 feeling nervous, anxious and like he wanted to vomit. Two hours later he left the embassy with a smile on his face!!!! He was approved! After knowing each other nearly 3 years he will finally have the opportunity to come to the US, meet all my friends, and we can begin building our life here together. I am at work right now and am still just sitting here....at first I was shocked, then I started crying, then I started laughing, then co-workers were giving me hugs, then I began making phone calls and now I am just sort of in a daze.

This is crazy!!! I want to thank the VJ community for all the support and for answering all my random questions. A special shout out goes to the 'kid' (you know who you are). You will never know how much reassurance you and your fiance gave Jose and I!

I will be posting a full review on the CR review page soon. I am sure I will start in with a whole bunch of "next step" questions but for now a huge hurdle is behind us.

PURA VIDA!!!!! :dance:

This is crazy!!! I want to thank the VJ community for all the support and for answering all my random questions. A special shout out goes to the 'kid' (you know who you are). You will never know how much reassurance you and your fiance gave Jose and I!

I will be posting a full review on the CR review page soon. I am sure I will start in with a whole bunch of "next step" questions but for now a huge hurdle is behind us.

PURA VIDA!!!!! :dance:

Congrats :whistle::whistle::whistle:

CONGRATULATIONS!

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.
