Hola Amigos!

Mi esposa hermosa es de Barranquilla, Colombia. Lo siento, hablo español solo un poco ;)

If you look at "My Story", there is a link to see photos of me and my wife. Apparently I didn't know how to load the photos on the Visa Journey site, so I used another method.

We were married on 1/21/2006, but due to my tax issues, I didn't file for the I-130 until 6/30/2006... and no response (NOA1) yet.

I am now thinking of filing for the K3 also... anything I can do to get my wife here to the USA faster.

Welcome to the site. You have happened on a wealth of knowledge. Use it to your advantage, my friend. As for me, my fiance is from Bogota. We are crawling at a snails pace through this immigration thing, but moving nonetheless. Hey, if you find a way to get your fiancee here faster, share the wealth, would ya? ;) All 've got is a pair of ruby slippers and the heels are worn out already! Haha.
