Yes I would be really lucky if I could visit him, I called customs and explained my situation and they told me " I don't forsee any problems for you, you should be just fine, just be honest and you'll be fine" then I called again to get a second opnion and the lady said "bring my NOA 1 and have money on me, and a note from work. and everything should be fine, and they could allow me up to 6months...she said then again I can't tell you yes or no because it depends on the officer but I shouldn't have any problems" So hopefully I will be lucky!! I keep praying everyday and looking forward to seeing him :star:

NOA 1 is with my husband... He will send you I guess or you have it? Canada - US... I dont think you will have any problems. You 2 are quite close, he can visit, you can visit, not like me & my husband... A BIG OCEAN APART!!!!!!!

So far he's done all the visiting, since for me is very hard to obtain US visa to travel to him.

I cant wait to see him again, last time was in March when we got married. So difficult it is to be married & then say "BYE" at the airport. We try to see the funny in the situation:

"Do you want to marry him? YES"

"Do you want to marry her? YES"

Okay now BYE, haha, but is not that way at all...

Think positive you will most likely not encounter any difficulties visiting your husband.

Hmm I don't know about it , Are you in Romania immigrating to u.s. or your husband is in Romania? Im the petitioner and my husband is the ben. I don't have a job either but my parents and i live in the same household so Im using them as joint sponsors. I have some savings (assets) that I want to put down.....and my husband also has savings from over there that he can show (he's going to sell his house) But I honestly don't know I don't want to advice you and give you the wrong information try posting in the CR-1 process and procedures section....this is the prgress reports forum. =) :star:

i think unemployeed is not good. you probably need a joint sponsor. i don't think just showing you have $1,000,000 in the bank is enough? i am not sure.

But now I'm REALLY worried as people who applied after us have had their aplication touched, ie. theirs is cedrtainly on computer. What is going on? We app[lied mid May! I'm really fed up, I KNEW they'd lose our application!
