We also Filed in September.

Got our notice of delivery, details of check cashed from the bank ... and NOA1 all on the same day. I told my poor sweety he is crazy and it can't be the NOA1 yet - and he waved it infront of the webcam for me.

Hope everything else goes this fast and smoothly.

Good luck to all in September.

Now we wait to see if anyone hears anything.

Hello Guys!

It's been like my past time after I finish my school paper or during the break time in my work, I visit this site. I might be too paranoid but it's nice to know that besides me and my bebe ko, many couple like us are waiting for the progress. I am being patient but I want to be in track on what should do time to time.

Anyway, does anybody here experience discrimination from the other people because you have foreign fiance and you meet him/her in this kind of communication? :) I just want to know and get your opinion. This is just for the sake of conversation

Sorry, I am late to post - also filed in September.

Mailed September 3rd, Received 9/5/08 and Notice date was 9/8/08. Since then - nothing :angry::angry::angry:

CSC seems to be slow, but I am hopeful I did everything so nicely that they hurry it up - but I doubt it. Best of luck to everyone - I am calculating end of March, beginning of April before my fiance can be in teh US - that sound about right to everyone?

It's been like my past time after I finish my school paper or during the break time in my work, I visit this site. I might be too paranoid but it's nice to know that besides me and my bebe ko, many couple like us are waiting for the progress.

:ot::lol::P:bonk:

Regarding your question about discrimination - I think it depends on which part of the US you will live in. Some places (especially larger cities with diverse population) are more tolerant. Generally intollerance is just from ignorance. :bonk: Also, it may depend on appearance. If you are young and your fiance is much older or if you are really pretty and your fiance is not, people may assume your relationship is only for visa reasons to come to the US. Again, many people in the US are ignorant of other cultures and differences, so this is largely just based on their experience (or lack of experience). People also seem to have a lack of tolerance for people that dont speak English - I have actually heard people say something like "if your going to come to this country, speak English" - which is totally ridiculous considering the person they were talking about was a visitor and we dont learn to speak other languages before going to other countries.

I travel around the world, so it is nice to see how other people view things, but it should be noted - in general, people in the rest of the world watch news about the rest of the world, but in the US, mostly our news is just about what is happening in the US. If we see news about other areas, it is biased unfortunately. I guess in the US, there is enough going on for us to think about without considering the rest of the world generally. Sad, but true....

Honestly, it seems to me (just an opinion), that most intolerance is race or religion related - being from the philippines, I dont think you will have too much problem - especially if your English is good.

With all that being said, the US is still a great country, but like every place we have problems and people who are not so tolerant of others. I hope you never experience any problems. :D
