It took 3 very long years, but thank God everything went well. My wife arrived in New York on Friday the 13th at 9:47 PM. She didn't come out until 11:30 PM. That sounds like they were giving her a problem but that was not the case. I was very nervous because I thought they were giving here a tough time because I wasn't with her. It took her so long to leave immigration because 15 flights apparently arrived at the same time and the lines for the visitors line were insane. My wife told me that they didn't give her a hard time, that everything went pretty fast. They didn't grill her with questions. Now I'm with my wife after 3 years of dealing with this process. Thanks to all who contributed to our dream. This website was a blessing. Thank you and God bless.
