Hi all it has been quite awhile since i logged in but just a quick update. After almost 2 years and alot of heartache we are finally finished. My husband crossed the border and got his passport stamped on march 2nd. due to his son getting married last week he had to stay in mexico, but he will be in my arms Wed. I just want to thank everyone for helping me get through this longgggggg process. I have vented, had doubts and am very appreciative for finding this site and for all the positive input i have received along the way. This is a great site for tons of useful information. We completed this journey without the expense and help from any attorney. :D:dance::thumbs: Good luck to all . Keep the faith because the end is worth it. Peace out. Robbie and Mauricio

Congratulations to you both!

Everything I respond to is from personal knowledge, research or experience and I am in no means a lawyer or do I claim to be one. Everyone should read, research and be responsible for your own journey.
