I know what you mean. due to the high airfares in the summer i wont see him till my birthday in september, to make things worse all this month i've had to stay up really late to speak to him as hes been on holiday with his dad the hol month so free time was later. he got back yesterday so i think i'm tierdon top plus i had to sacrifice last weeks days off workto cover people off, and im doing it to my mornings this week and the mornings on my days off next week. wouldnt mind but it means i have no time to see my friends to take my mind of of it. tried to take my mind of by thinking about the wedding but thats back firing cos i feel overwellmed by all the stuff i've decided i will do my self gahhh.

how much is the doctor gunna charge for you hpv cos mine was a bit off cos they didnt think i need it. they sorta said i have to convince my gp to do it and then she will give me a private perscription

That sucks!! I know, i stay up till at least 1 every night to talk to him. This summers gunna be especially hard as he stars an intern which does complete unsociable hrs for talk time, i know we'll sort it but arghh. Also hard cuz 2 ppl i know got married the illegal way yesteray (without K1 visa) and its hard to know theyre out there togetehr eay as pie while we're doin it legal way with more agro. And people are flying out tomorrow for camp (where we met and hav been the past 2 summers) in USA and i cant do it , sniff sniff ! itll all be worth it in the end but some days seem so damn hard! is it the waiting thats making these few months more difficult??i cant put my finger on it.

Well i spoke to the nurse at my doctors and she said to call her up monday (tomorrow) and she will tell me how uch it costs. She was really nice and said that she would order it and, even though i would probs have to have the last shot in usa, she would start the ball rolling. Im also gunna take in list of vaccinations that are required form US and she can give me hat i need. Surprisingly helpful actally seeing as i want even registered with them (only temprarily) when spoke with her. theyve expidited my records from my normal surgery in order to start the vaccination process asap!

Speak to your doctor and say that you need #######! If youre a paying customer there is no reasonwhy he/she should say no. maybe take it list from US so you can show what you need or speak to someone else ie nurse?

Good Luck, and hope you feel better about things. Its a lot tougher than i thought!! :whistle: Ive heard CSC arenearly at the end of the back logg and some ppl are gettin approals within 4mnths! We got our NOA1 april 22nd- fingers crossed!

i've actually put each day down in my diary to work out the possible time frame for noa2 how said is that and for our may 1st date 4 and ahalf months exactly is 11th of september but four months would be nicer :yes:

i dunno if i will get my nightly chat tonite :( which is hard cos tonite i really need to hear his voice.

man i hate feeling like this. not felt this way since i've been with him and it feels unatual. yeh unfortunatly with the docs i hd to relay to the nurse through a bloody recptionist. why when i was dead she had to do that i dunno.

i messaged you back. was thinking that have you put the address in addresses since 16 box anyway? if so then it might be better to wait for rfe? its difficult cos 1 would they no you made a mistake to rfe you? im guess yes if its in that other box and got dates of occupancy. 2 if you prempt a strike will they add it to you file if its not waiting on an officers desk instead of a big packing box. i would def have a correct copy waiting, but not entirely sure when to post it.

haha just mssaged you back aswell...arent we on the ball! Well im kinda thinking that the box muxt be there for a reason (even though it makes sense that if the applicant put 'present' address down in the box above then there would be no need for address outside the usa for more then a yr) so im guessing they need it! Hmm what todo, wait or no...i could at least try i guess..no harm. and if they dont get it then i will just send an rfe latr f/when they ask.

oh the joy of it all! :wacko:

Spent the whole day on the phone with Sarah...hooray vonage! Trying to convince her to get it as well, since its unlimited calling to the US including mobiles for you UKers :)

Bleh, I hate the evenings....she goes to bed around 5-6 my time (10-11 her time) because of work. Weekends are great, but they go by far too quickly. Oh well I guess that's good thing, it means another week come and gone until we're together. 91 days until She'll be here to visit! And 4 months would put getting the approval while she's here!!! That'd be awesome!!!!!

dont forget she would have to return for embassy interview and the packets will be sent to her home in uk! :thumbs: thinks a matter of weeks between csc to nvc to embassy dont think it will take whole month. i hope not at least. well if we get ours at four months/ 120 days thats thursday the 28th august which would be awesome as its two days after our anniversary of being together. but it will prob be more realistic to hope for between 120 to 134 days/4.5 months thats gunna be for us 11 sept. hes due to come visit for the last part of sept to the begining of oct so hes with me on my bday. so the earlyer the better especially if we can coincide his visit with the medical and interview? pipe dreams i know. :whistle:

this is how bored I am :whistle: ............. I count 42 CSC May filers on Igors list with 12.18% already have noa1. cant wait to be able to change that to noa2 :innocent:

Was just offered a fantastic job in St. Louis as soon as I can get to America, and it was so frustrating not being able to give her a definite date. I don't want to tell her it will be six months when it might take four or eight, and these are the moments when I really do feel like pulling my hair out--having this amazing opportunity and not being able to do much but hope to the Goddess the United States government is in a good mood.

Wow congratulations

Are you going to try for a work stamp at point of entry? And what about getting the new one before it runs out? Just interested as I was thinking bout what I will do. Don't wanna be twiddling my thumbs all those months.

I am definitely going to ask about EAD at POE. What do I have to lose? I am hoping to be married ASAP after entry (him, me, and a judge), mostly so EAD and AOS can be sent off right away. It will be very stressful if only one of us is working, but we are saving as much as possible right now so that we are able to make it through a couple of months on just one income. (It will drive me insane, though.)
