hello all VJ friends,

first, I like to say thank you to administrator of this VJ site for providing us a great helpful community site.

second, I like to say thank you to all of VJ members. whithout you I would be lost and couln't reach the final step of this painful waiting process.

I love you all!

finally, I like to share with you that my wife and I went to AOS interview on Feb 9. They didn't let us in 45 minutes earlier than the appointment time. The lady interviewer was very nice and polite. all she asked us was "when were you married", that's all. then she stamped "APPROVED" sign on my document. Then she said the card should be arrive from 5-30 days.

even though we brought medical exam + vaccine supplement and all other evidence listed on inteview NOA., but the lady didn't even look at any of them....but I gave the package to her anyway...she said" OH, OKIE"

that's it...20 minutes waiting in waiting room and 10 minutes for interview...done! :dance:

by the way. the lady said my wife's green card is 2-year conditional, which mean before the card expires (2 years), we will send another form something..51..can't remember, then they will send a new card without restriction...

anyway..my long INS journey is over and a new chapter in life begins...

thanks again to all of you...and I hope you all successful in your journey as mine! :thumbs:

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).
