Maria and I just want to thank VJ and all the members of VJ!

:no:

Application Type: I129F , PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)

Current Status: Approval notice sent.

On January 22, 2009, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E).

If you are new, looking for information on how, what , and where to file for a fiancee visa, you have come to the right place.

If you can read instructions, follow steps, you have come to the right place.

We really considered getting an attorney, but decided VJ has enough useful and clear guides to follow, so we went for it, prayed and now the petition is approved.

We're still floating of joy as we received the email from the USCIS notifying us that our visa application was approved!

Thank God for making this possible to us.
