Its now 12:30..... trying to kill time but I cant, my heart is racing and im waiting for the answer...

Keep us in your thoughts this is taking longer than expected. WHY!!! Hes in Ciudad Juarez.

Fell in love on a missions trip in 2005, got married in 07, got pregnant and started IR1 visa process in 08, had baby number 2 in 10, and its now 2011, and we are just now finally getting to the end of this long road. (The mail from the embassy never arrives to my home, causing us trouble. Fingers crossed and prayers going up! Both kids born and raised in Mexico and American citizens by CRBA:

His Appointement is October 25th!

Definitely have been thinking of you guys today! I think he'll be alright. Think of it this way, even though you guys have invested a lot of time and money into this, worst case scenario they tell him not this time or not right now and he gets to come back home to you and his family the next day. Well unless... (insert nasty comment about Ciudad Juarez here).

Anyway, I'd argue that most people on this forum don't have that luxury. The absolute worst thing that can happen is that nothing will change and you guys get to keep living the good life in Mexico, which would probably be Gods way of telling you that you're good where you are. I really don't think that will be the result though and I bet he gets approved today. Good Luck!
