Newbie here, just wanted to say hello. I haven't began the K-1 process yet but will soon, and will update my timeline when it all starts. I've been lurking on the forum for nearly a week now, and I thought it was silly to just read and not thank you all for the information I've received so far. Amazing that a week ago I was just in love and had never heard of a K-1. To all of you who are already in the process and are anxiously awaiting your SO I wish you the best of luck. As I said before, I am just now beginning the process, and this site has been a great comfort to me to know I'm not alone in this journey.

I will try to post and add to conversations whenever I have something somewhat helpful, but since I'm pretty new it will be a while before I get ramped up.

Best of luck to you all!

Welcome to VJ (F)

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

Thanks for all the well wishes. I think my eyes are going to fall out from all the research I've done. I don't like being unprepared or not knowing about any venture I pursue so I'm probably going overboard. But, in the end it will definitely be worth the blurry vision.
