I just got off the phone with my fiancée and she got her K-1 visa approved!!!!

The process was pretty straightforward as she described it to me. She went through security, submitted the receipt stating that she paid the fees, organized her documents, submitted the self-addressed stamped envelope, signed some documents, answered a few questions, and was approved.

Since it is a Friday, she won't have the visa in her hand until next week. However, I can't wait to be with her in just under 3 weeks.

It seems like when we started the K-1 process, I was poring through the various forums here on VJ trying to fully understand the entire process. I spent countless hours reading and re-reading the same stuff to make sure I had it memorized. I want to thank everyone here for their kind support and I wish everyone all the best in their respective journey.

Time to go to work, but we all know where my mind will be. Let's all have a few drinks on me!!!
