So... apparently we were approved! That's what facebook says at least, his phone signal in london is too dodgy to get ahold of him.

HAHAHAHAH!!! A facebook status is better than nothing though, I'm sure. Congrats! Hopefully you will get to talk to him soon!

I don't know about other people, but I STILL get people open my passport to see my I.D page but instead open/inspect the K1 page, and then tell me that my passport has "expired". As is the giant 'VISA' wasn't a give away.

This is the reason that, even though we will hopefully be approved next week, my fiance isn't coming over until late December. So while I'm super excited about him finally getting his visa, it will still be another three months before he's actually here with me.

I had warned my SO.....Visa in hand you had best have your person on its way home or I was gonna go and get em! No way was I gonna wait for him a moment longer then I had too......he knew that when the visa showed up, I wouldn't stop directing the three ringed circus to have him home asap! I am so happy am crying like a idgit. And to make matters worse........his girls.......his mum........oh gosh it's killing me....to see them and know how important he is to me....and to know that he as important to them in different ways.

I feel like a school kid being selfish and screaming MINE MINE MINE.........GUILT and all I still am over the moon that he is coming home!

Oh gosh love. That bites some serious bad truck driver language that is too inappropriate to say or type on here.

Glad about the visa for you but not so much the further length of time.

We had a similar wait, approved in June, but he didn't arrive until 4 months after that in October so that he could work longer and we could have more time to get AOS sorted after the wedding before the I-94 expired. My experience was that once the visa was in hand and we could book the airline tickets, it was much easier to bear. It was still hard, and was a lot like dieting in unpleasantness, denying ourselves etc. Once you have the visa, and can set a date for arrival it doesn't seem to be as long because you can adjust your expectations in exactly the way you couldn't all during the process. Anyway, hope it's all smooth so you can put the visa process to bed and move on with certainty!
