Well we are trying for the improbable - a visit - my hubby has been in school in Canada for a year, and has visited sucessfully once since we started our proceeds, but now he's trying for a two month before he goes back to Ireland to wait out the process...he's got lots of paperwork with him and is prepared to be utterly transparent - so it's all up to the border guard! wish us luck everyone! i'm a wreck today waiting to hear... we'll post the whole story for better or for worse soon as he's either here...or still there.

Hey! Still in a euphoric fog for having my man with me for the next few months...

He was doing a land crossing near Detroit from Canada (he just finished school there)-

his main problem was that he had forgotten to surrender his 194w when he visited for a few days in February, so he had to get them to take it and reissue him a new one - it was VERY touch and go there for a while! It didn't take the whole 3 hours he just had to wait for the next bus to come take him to the airport in Detroit... he had to use his supplemental documents to get them to believe that he had intentions to leave...

i'm SOOOOOOOOOO happy!!!!!!!!
