Hi There, i'm just about to begin the whole process of getting a visa and moving to the USA to live with my fiancee :) we've been together for almost 3 and a half years, and we've been kinda procrastinating a bit really, which is silly i know but the last few times i've been over we've spent more time going out and doing stuff than we've had being able to think about sorting things out. its only now that i've realised i really need to stop putting things off and get on with it ;) any advice and pointers are always welcome and i will be frequenting these forums from now on until i start my own journey, and probably once my journey has ended. :)
