LOL Trish that gave me a giggle.

I rang the doctor in Sydney about my medical & the lady was very helpful. She told me exactly what to ask the doctor to request for my blood test. So today I went to get the blood test done & was given the swine flu vaccine at the same time. The doctor in Sydney I am choosing to go through has a very short wait time. The lady said that I can get my medical done prior to the petition BUT she recommends waiting until it is on it's way to the NVC.

Eric is adding the final touches to the I134 and then he is sending everything to me next week...so we are moving along nicely and the timelines have come back with adjudication between March 2- March 12...hopefully it means I will be there with my man for my birthday in April :)

That is great news Terri! I'm very happy that things are going really smootly for you :thumbs: What a great birthday present huh!!

It would be the perfect birthday gift! At least this portion of life is sailing smoothly...my sons health has been horrendous over this last 3 weeks...4 lots of major surgery & another to go next month...but he keeps proving time & time again that he is my hero the way he handles himself throughout it all. Nobody can wipe that smile from his face despite the pain he is in a lot of the time.

Terri, who are you going through in Sydney? My guy has to get his blood test done to determine the vaccines he's had and then he needs to get his medical done. But we need someone who doesn't have that long of a wait time so he can try to get in soon.

I have chosen to go through Dr Miller. If your guy rings the lady there is extremely helpful and will tell him exactly what he needs to ask for in regards to the Immunisations. In NSW the blood test to check your immunity is charged to Medicare..another bonus from other states from I have read.

I apologize for not replying sooner today but today was dialysis day for my son & I have just walked in & seen this. The doctor's name is Dr Anthony Miller. Thanks Vanessa for posting the link.

I am now off to unwind after a very long day at the hospital.

Hi everyone :)

Just thought I'd give the thread a little nudge and see if there are any updates??

I'm getting very excited about filing our K1 ... looks like it will be happening in June sometime :) but only if I have my son's court order in my hand. Regarding that issue, I have an appointment with a Family Lawyer at a Community Legal place next Monday, so we can finally start the ball rolling on that issue.

But as far as visa related updates I am 3 months away from filing my I-751 removal of conditions thing... eeep I better start getting organized

Woohoo!!! The lady got him in this Monday. Which is surprising cause he doesn't have his shot records and the site keeps saying that it usually takes weeks to get in. But he got one for the next week.

I really hope this is a sign that things will start speeding up.

Thanks Kaffy! Oh it will come around very quickly, I think I will have everything that I can possibly have ready, put together before I board that plane to LA lol. All we will need is signtures, dates and our evidence :). It really is an exciting journey isn't it. Call me crazy, but I'm actually looking at the whole thing as a fun, positive challenge! :rofl:

Bacon that's great news ... I hope it's all super fast from now on :)
