how's everyone?

"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!

I had done my interview today and I am approved, after the weekend I have back my passport! :dance:

The guy only asked me 2 questions, -Where did you meet your husband and when did you marry him?... After 10 minutes I was on my back out from the embassy! They never asked for any proofs either.

Now the visa process its over for this time. Thanks VJ friends for all support! I’m going to celebrate with a weekend in the mountain and skiing. My husband come to Sweden next week and we are going to have some vacation in Scandinavia before I leave.

Good luck friends!

Thank you all friends for your good wishes. I can promise you its feels very good to know that this process is over.

I am sure everybody here needs a vacation or time together when this process is over because we had wait a year. Many of you have not met each other on a long time. I had have had the opportunity to travel to the U.S. a few times during the ongoing process.

Next week we have our 1 year wedding day, I am obviously very pleased that my husband come here for it.

Have a good weekend friends and I hope this week also going to yours!

"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!
