[RightClicK 17]

Soo wow I'll be parying for you too! So if any one of us was to get a RFE like that we have to supply everything on the list ?! Or as best we can?

Well first of all thanks a lot for being kind and praying for me , that was so nice and sweet , second you can supply what only apply to you and that doesn't apply to you , you will just mention it in the covering letter and say that its not applicable.

Best wishes and i hope none of you will get something like that.

Sorry I can only respond with a big WOW! It's Scary. Alex

I feel you ...i was the same when i seen it , i actually opened my mouth for a while ..like this :wow: :o

[lucky Jimmy 7]

Well, Obviously you don't have enough money to meet your hubby , but i have a good idea for you , Make a joint account in a US bank , your hubby can do it , and obviously you are using a pc , so you can open cams and take Screen Shots (SS) , You can send messages to your husband through yahoo for free , just right click on his mail in your yahoo contact list and then send SMS , Type his number with the country code 001 ,he will receive it , don't he call you , these messages and calls are recorded in his phone company so he can just call em and ask them to send him a call record for any month he want, Believe me you got proofs , Don't put your self down , Just dig for it .

i know its a little hard but it worth it .
