K3 interview - scheduled for May 19th!!! 353.gif353.gif

The passport stamp in your hubby's passport when he visited you (exit and entry immigration stamp).. You should ask him to scan them and send it to you.. If you do not have boarding passes then I guess e-tickets would do..

I promise to love you in good times and in bad, with all I have to give and all that I am, in the only way I know how -- completely and forever......

Seren,

fantastic! :dancing:

yes, its a rule...but if they suggested it, why not ask? wouldnt it be wonderful if you could?

Jenn,

awesome! yaaay

Aruba,

candid gave you everything you can bring and I totally agree that overload is better than being ill prepared

GS,

still waiting for case completion?

Steve,

what day are you in now for AP? Its getting really close to the magical 50 days :D

Que,

excited? nervous? all of the above?

It's Friday guys!

"you fondle my trigger then you blame my gun"

Timeline: 13 month long journey from filing to visa in hand

If you were lucky and got an approval and reunion with your loved one rather quickly; Please refrain from telling people who waited 6+ months just to get out of a service center to "chill out" or to "stop whining" It's insensitive,and unecessary. Once you walk a mile in their shoes you will understand and be heard.

Thanks!
