hi!

Guys I a so frustrated with this wait here. I mean they have not touched my file at all. God only knows if they are working on it or not. I cannot concentrate on my study and feel that I will get old just waiting for my spouse to come here. I spend a few hours talking to my spouse and the rest of the hours I am day dreaming. If I go out and see a couple walking/passing by, then I see that every body is so happy in their life and I am so sad and depressed with out my spouse. I hope my spouse comes in here before I have to start some anti depressants.

I know that many people here are waiting like me and I can feel the pain.

I pray to God that he looks at us.

Kapad - Relax buddy. Everyone has to wait their turn. The further away u r, the more your love will grow. These are the times that you have to be patient and as the say goes in indian culture "saber ka fal meeta hota hai"

So just relax and enjoy life as much as you can.

Kapad,

I have to agree with JD except for the love growing stuff... although I dont know what "saber ka fal meeta hota hai" means :blush: But regardless, true happiness comes from withing not from somebody. I have heard that a sign of maturity is being able to deny yourself things that you want. We all want to be with our loved one and like JD said Time will make that happen.

So bide your time and start planning things that you can do once she is close to you again. Think of all the things that will be a shock to her or that she will like about her new home. Think of her getting strength from you and the support your going to need to provide at least in the first few years. For someone to grow up in a place its almost automatic for them to understand and accept things. When your transplanted it is a different story and a very long process.

My mother was from a Germany and although she only lived in in Germany for her first 23 yrs and lived in the US for 52 more yrs. She never stopped being German. Dont misunderstand she was American and spoke English but in her heart of hearts I think she was still German. The trouble was the Germany she new nolonger existed but she still loved to speak it with others and talk about her home. I also see this with my foreign friends. Their children are Americans but the parents born and raise in another country still have much love for their birth place regardless of how messed up it may have been or is. For me I was born in Germany but my Heart is USA all the way. I dont have any real feelings for Germany but I left when I was 5.

So look at what you can do to prepare to make her time here easier. IF you were not born here you might have a good idea about it . IF you were born here then ask someone who came here as a young adult from India. THat should keep you focused.. for a while :blush::yes:

Signed, Sealed and Delivered!

March2010, congrats on making it to 3 months :P. I just got an e-mail notification pop-up on my screen. My heart almost skipped a beat....just something from UNCEF. NEVERMIND!!!!! I think I'm starting to get silly and hopeful. People around my time line are getting approved. maybe I should just not check my computer or any computer for a week. Tom....I'm coming for a kayak trip early :P. Then, after almost dying while on your crazy kayak tour, I will come back and see a nice approval :P.

I tend to think I will never get approved so people ho think I am next, better hope not...since I think I am last :P.

John...you can mos def join the kayaking group. You are in NJ and I am in NE. Tom is in Tennessee...sooooo....we are a little spread out. All we need to do...is have gobs of extra money lying around and make a trip that our spouses would be ok with (mainly mine since you 2 are fellers and I am not) and then be on our merry way. I know there is no way that I will be able to stop checking and posting. It does pass the time though. The Memorial Day week end stopped me from checking for a few hours (my fam invited me along to the park, so I went). *Sigh. We will all be through here soon and into NVC and be wishing it were as easy as waiting for an NOA2 :P.

I wish I could also join you all on a kayak trip. Because it would also get my mind off of checking USCIS site and calling everyday. LOL!!!!!! But what I have been doing over the last week with my wife is getting all the paperwork ready. I guess you could say that I am starting a little late in the game. But if it wasnt for me deciding to join VJ, I think I would have been lost on what to do. But I do have a question to send out to all of my march brothers and sisters. Have any of you used any other immigration help sites before coming to this one? And do any of you feel that this site is better or about equal to the other sites that you may have tried. I only bring this up because, I originally tried using ***removed***. I found alot of information there, but most of it was tailored for India. Which was no help for me since my wife is in Hong Kong. Then I tried using a site called World of Filipinas. For me that site was not that informative. But I did meet a gentleman that I am pretty sure works for the NVC.

Sorry if I am rambling, just want to get input about any of your experiences with other help sites and there forums.

If there are any march filers living here in California send me a PM.

To TeyaValentina again my money is on you for the 1st march approval of this month. Good luck to you!!!!!

I haven't used any other sites Anthony. I guess because I have seen so much information on this one and this site was recommended to me. I find this more of a place full of knowledge instead of a place with people who just say stuff. I usually forget that this site is a public board and not really a site of USCIS and NVC people. :).

Thanks for the luck Anthony. I will need it! Good luck to you as well.
