That was quick! I have to file for mine at the beginning of May. I'll be looking to you for some tips!

Wow. That's awesome, E! I hope mine goes smoothly too. My AOS took forever, it seems. I feel ripped off that I can't apply for removal until I've been a PR for two years..... even though by that time I will have been here almost 3 years.

Emancipation, what kinds of proof did you send in your package, if I might ask? I guess I need to start collecting all that stuff.

Congrats E!!!

Here's one that happened this morning:

...when a friend sends you a link to a funny video, you send it to your brother, and he confesses that he had sent it a week ago to a friend saying I needed that medication.

:lol:

Here, see for yourself (work safe):

Clicky!

Oh wow. That is super helpful, Emancipation. Thank you. I'm going to keep this handy. What a pain in the #######.

Is it more $$ than AOS? Sheesh, I better start saving.... The immigration robbery never ends!

Yeah. That part burns my #######. The evidence pains my #######. I think I need a burning ####### smiley.

Jill, it's about $545 at the moment, I believe. Call it $600. Makes me so mad. I would have done this marriage and immigration thing completely different if I'd known about this site beforehand.

Yeah. You know when I look back on the entire cost of this love thing.... not just the money but the cost of leaving everyone and everything behind.... I seriously wonder if I momentarily lost my mind. Honestly.

Sounds like you'll be getting your NOA2 soon. Congratulations! Hang onto that thing. Make copies. You need it for the AOS.
