Ells, afraid is not the word, A went to the doctor for a physical the other day and he had to go get lab work done, He called me when he got to the lab and 45mintues pass and I haven't heard from him, so I am calling and no answer, he finally calls me back sounding weird, come to find out he passed out. When he told me the story about waking up on the floor with a cloth on his head and something around his neck I was dieing, it wasn't funny but I can just picture him waking up on the floor like #######.... lol! and he forgot to tell the nurse that he tends to pass-out around needles! I had a good laugh that day!

:wow: That was hilarious!!

yeah im flying american airline on the way down i have a 2 and a half hour layover and the back its 5hrs ..

I have a 5 hour layover on flight back from Kingston..I was going to bring my laptop, but now I think I may find better ways to kill time. I usually change planes in the FLL airport on Spirit and that airport is BORING

:thumbs: @ Ellis

I thought I was the only one that went to Miami and did the 12 hour layovers :whistle:

I make sure to pack light so I can bring my bag and I take the bus to Southbeach. Go to the little Italian Restaurant with the mist and fans and eat for the buffet lunch 6.95 special.

Yeah, the longest layover I've had there is about 5 1/2 hours but usually it's around 4 hours. Gives me plenty of time to mosey on through so I really kinda like it now. The only hard one was a flight delay when mister came home with me that ended up being 4 hours after our scheduled flight. We just wanted to get home & introduce him to his new home & instead we waited in Miami airport for 8-9 hours. That was rough! Better to be on a safe plane though.

I'll have to get info from you if we go via Miami again on that bus ride to Southbeach...sounds like a nice way to kill the time!

Okay.....now for the rest.

I've been a little mopey cause there hasn't been any activity on our AOS case & it seems everyone else doing this at the same time has had at least some progress. Well, I had moments ago closed out the USCIS case status window & went to check my e-mail for whatever random messages may have come in this afternoon. My heart jumped when I saw two messages from USCIS about our cases. I opened them and...

WE GOT APPROVALS ON HIS EAD & AP TODAY!!! Approval notice sent for AP & card production ordered for EAD!! YAY!!! :dance::dance::dance:

(Now to just wait for the AOS itself to have some action! :whistle: )

:dance: CONGRATS :dance:

Congrats Ells

TAKE THE JET BLUE FLIGHT!!! LOL -

I find that you can stay much cheaper in Negril than in Mo Bay - so even though you have the transportation costs, you can find a better deal on hotel -

Wow 5 hour layover??? I never had a layovr longer than 2 hours and with those I feel like I'm going to kill myself from the waiting.. Maybe I should look into those then I wouldn't have to do the million yard dash through the airport.

Congrats Ells!!!!

Hi guys I hope everyone is doing well I really need some help for my aunt today, all answers will be greatly appreciated.

My aunt married a man in Jamaica and petitioned for him he just entered the country a few weeks ago he was approved for his 10 yr green card, He has a 5 yr old son in Jamaica which she they now want to petition for and she was asking?

1. Can they even file for him?

2. What is the process ( what forms , how much it would cost....)?

3. Approx how long would it take for him to arrive in the country....

Thanks in advance.....

Hey mrsjeffs :star:

1. yes they can file

2. they would file the same I-130 its $355US to start

3. right now for a child under 21 it takes about 5 months to get approved by USCIS (its almost the same process she went through to get him here except its a little different at NVC stage) :thumbs: hope that helps :thumbs:

Oh SG and I especially HATE having to go to that stinky smelly fish store that we saw you and your hubby at. Unfortunately he LOVES that store. ICK!

Where is that one?

It is on Olive and North and South. Here in University City.

Interesting. I never get that far whatever that is.....north west(?) Jays on Grand is what we used to hit.

Oh SG and I especially HATE having to go to that stinky smelly fish store that we saw you and your hubby at. Unfortunately he LOVES that store. ICK!

Coincidentally he was supposed to make a run today to that store and guess who would have been going instead if he did not get his license yesterday? :yes:

BTW I have an SUV so text or call me if you need help this wknd with moving. I can fit some stuff in there if I fold the chairs down.

Oh yes..........call her......a VJ moving day reunion!!!!!!

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip
