hey, i have a question,

well with time getting closer i'm starting to wrorry about things going wrong. i tried to mail ahmed a postcard in kuwait just to be sure that he would recive it before i mail a copy of the noa2 when i get it and he hasnt got any of them. i've mailed 3 cards and im not sure why they arent making except that theyre mailing system is diffrent then ours. does anyone have experiance with the mailing system in kuwait? how can i send somthing and be sure he gets it? the cards i sent was postcards with our photo as the picture could this be the problem? i doont understand why they want us to send it knowing that some countries dont have a good postal system. this really is stressing and i was on the phone with my sister about this like 2 weeks ago and today my 3 year old son came to me and said mommy dont be sad i'll take the letter to baba... so i really want to figure this out so i dont have to stress so much that he sees it and tries to fix it for me thats my lil mr fix everything

when you are sending documents to your SO for example NOA2 you will need to invest more money in shipping these, FEDEX, DHL (Worldwide Services still in business).........This is very important!

USCIS uses DHL to ship our documents, I will be using that also, in the Philippines DHL is reliable. Find out what service is more reliable in your country and go with that, and PLEASE do not go cheap on these when you are shipping evidence and NOA2.

Better expensive than sorry.

Morning!!! Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

[Cuchita 1]

Thanks for the wishes and Happy thanksgiving to all of you too, for the ones who don´t celebrate, you will do soon! .

My family is all from south america but now that we are here and we are citizens we have to celebrate! hey why not!.

Now for example I had no idea of what eggnog was, so I am looking for the recipe online and I will prepare it today! I leave the turkey to my mom, she´s the cook in the family.

About the question sending the package to Kuwait, isn´t it possible to scan it and the he prints everything out to take to the interview?. In the instructions of the I-134 they don´t mention you have to send originals, there´s a part that says:

"Evidence consists of copies of any or all of the following documets listed below that are applicable to your situation".

And of course the form has to be notarized. But like Freddy says find out what courier works well over there.

Take care,

Where is everyone?? its so quite in here, Mara, Donna-Marie, Gemmie?? how are you doing?

[maliciant 7]

Yeah, when sending anything important to another country, use a private courrier like UPS, DHL, or even fedex, I believe that in most any case where you use a private courier, and they don't actually have offices in a country, they will pass the package to another private courrier (if you ship to the philippines via fedex, DHL or UPS will get the package, not sure which, and take it to the final destination). International packages are not cheap, so you wouldn't want to send a post card that way, which is too bad since those post cards would be handy as proof of an ongoing relationship during the interview.

I'm here, just been lurking a bit. Been busy with work and work (now that I have decided on doing 2 jobs im not so sure about it, thankfully one ends in 2 weeks and one day...). On top of that I have been busy counting down the days till Chris gets here, and thinking of a few things we could do whilst he is here to give him an idea of Australia.

One the positive Chris' sister in law gave birth to their first child on the 26th of November (must be a good day hey Mailicent) so I will get to adopt an adorable little boy as my nephew when we get married

Still no news on the USCIS front, maybe next week

In the Philippines FEDEX is very reliable, offices everywhere! it's just like it is here in the U.S.

That's why when I am going home I am already bringing all evidence of ongoing relationship with me to save a little on shipping!

[Gemmie 142]

Aww, yay for babies.

I've been busy with schoolwork, plus had a friend stay over..

Happy belated birthday, Maliciant.

So...I have reached my 100th day mark today...don't feel very elated...it would have been nice if August filers were beginning to get approved, then I would feel like I have gotten somewhere...hopefully it won't be much longer...I have my heart set on first of week of Jan, please God, let us have our NOA2 soon!
