SOOOO HAPPY! Husband did walk-in biometrics in Santa Ana, CA today... SUCCESSFUL!!

I'd read horrible stories on VJ about the guards in Santa Ana... looks like we really lucked out and got the nice one!

In and out in about 40 minutes.

Hi Kristin! If you don't mind me asking, why was your AP rejected?

Thank you Hope.andsun :) It feels great to feel positive attitudes around me. I really do need it. I recently had to ban myself from this website because it was just too much haha. But Im good now

I'm addicted to VJ, lol. I'm surprised I haven't made it my homepage. :rofl::lol: Just ignore the negativity...I do, and I'm still sane (well...after the K-1 process??) hahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa

Oh my goodness, four hours...at least it's over and done and all went smooth. Hopefully, you enjoyed the ride. It's all good. Glad everything went well, and now you are waiting together and nothing beats that. God bless.

I will pray that you get approved without an interview and that everything goes smoothly for you. :) That would be a really long drive and it's just too much. I assume we would have to go to Newark (my best guess), and that's only about 45 minutes away. At least you made a nice "day trip" out of it, lol. Not like you had much of a choice :blush: I am also hoping that we get approved without an interview as well (praying really hard for that). I had enough stress with the visa interview at the Nairobi Embassy (God, they are SO TOUGH)...omgggggg. I honestly think I drove Ben up the wall and down the other side with worrying about all of that. :blink: The thought of another interview doesn't exactly excite me. You worry about so much because we know all too well that anything is possible - it was stressful...I am so grateful that part is over and done with...very frustrating, and my husband never curses :help: , lol, and I've got the mouth of a drunken sailor, hahahaha. So I had to wait until he'd walk away then I'd mumble this and that under my breath :devil: LOL
