My nerves are shot....Not sure how I am going to get through the next couple of weeks. I need all the prayer and well wishes I can get. I just have the worst feeling of being overwhelmed, and worried. So much is going on right now, and I feel like I can't handle it today...

Tany,

How are you doing? I know it's crazy making when time goes slowly leading up to the interview. How are you guys doing?

I'm a day late and probably a dollar short on this aspect of the discussion, but thought I'd throw my two cents in here anyway. I've seen a lot of couples go through Casablanca. And to be honest I've

Hi Everyone, I know if my husband reads this he will get mad. He really tries to discourage me from posting on VJ for reasons of this very topic. He feels that most of the couples on here (most, not

First and foremost, I'm not here to denigrate anyone and telling it like it has always been my style on VJ. Just sayin'. The sad part of immigration-based relationships is perception. Everyone from

Tany,

How are you doing? I know it's crazy making when time goes slowly leading up to the interview. How are you guys doing?

Doing FABULOUS! :thumbs: :thumbs: Despite the postal strike, hubby has all the evidence and paperwork he needs for the interview. (My package never made it there)We found out last friday what was going on, so we worked all week to get all the papers and pictures organized again...He was able to get his police record and court record today, and that was all that we were waiting for. We actually thought that he wouldn't be able to get them until after the interview, so it was a very nice surprise!

I was feeling crumby that day because I have a lot on my plate right now. My hubby's stuff, of course, but also my sister is getting married in a few weeks, so it's crunch time! And financially, her wedding has taken a toll on my bank account :( but, she is the baby of the family, and we have all pitched in to help her! So tomorrow night, we are going to PARTY in Boston for her bachelorette, and then hopefully hearing GREAT news on monday! I was also bummed because money I had put aside for hubby's plane ticket is now gone...so was feeling sad about that, but we will manage. And surprisingly, time has FLOWN by! I am so damn busy here, that I blink, and days are gone... :dance:

Hubby feels great about the interview, but he is nervous he might get the same guy who interviewed him last year, cause that guy was NOT very nice...but we will see, and I am sure he will do great :luv:

Yes I am wishing everyone that is in AP be given an answer soon and those still waiting for interviews I wish you the best. And those who have been denied I sincerely hope you can overcome this and keep on trucking for your loved ones. I enjoy reading your stories and especially when visas are given in Casablanca.

I always see them because I check the Morocco portal. I believe they were all CR1s, and all were one visit and get married cases. Probably age difference issues as well.

Amen! What's with all the craziness out of Casa lately?? Like a rash of scammers have discovered VJ & are posting all over on here. Or maybe the same person using different names...crazy!

Wow....can't believe how long it has been since I've been on VJ....seems like life is just flying by. Married life is great...some culture shock issues, but nothing major that LOTS of communication and open mindedness wouldn't fix...lol How is everyone else doing? We are working on the AOS/EAD now, so will hopefully get that soon so life can really get flowing....Hubby HATES not working, so would help BOTH of us out to get him out of the house & working some :whistle:
