Congrats Ariane! Welcome to the club!!

My husband picked up his interview letter today. Now I am waiting to see if he called to schedule a medical or not. So 4 more big steps...MEDICAL, INTERVIEW, GET THE VISA'D PASSPORT, and POE....eeepppppppp. Is anyone freaking out yet? I'm not quite yet. I know I will for the medical though b/c what if...well, you know. :P Still too much time to freak out about the interview. One step at a time or my husband will be severely overwhelmed :P

My wife and I chat every day as well as send at least one email a day. What I did was print a picture showing the listing of the daily logs and email entries and then show just a page for a couple of chats/month and a couple of emails/month. That is still a lot of stuff. I am figuring it will cost my wife about $100.00 US dollars on printing out evidence.

Don't forget to send copies of your boarding passes.

As far as dumping material on the interviewer have your wife keep the stuff organized at her side and then just give the interviewer what he specifically asks for.

$100 for printing??? That's too much!! It only costs 5 pesos to print a 4R photo.

Anyway, I hope to see your wife at the Embassy and wish her luck personally =)
