January I-129F filers

i'm down for texas, plenty of cheap buses from LA to TX. or maybe by then we'll have upgraded our 21 year old jeep wrangler to the new mini cooper i desperately want, and i can drive!

Are you going to be living in LA?

[kittylondon 47]

sorry, LA = Louisiana!

but we might be moving to california if andrew gets onto a residency programme there, san francisco is his first choice

[kittylondon 47]

what about everyone else, do you think you'll stay in the area you are moving to initially? what US city/state would you love to live in?

haha got ya!

Oh San Francisco is lovely! Terry used to live there and has a lot of friends there and I would love to live there but he is saying it's too cold and too foggy haha! It's a great city though! So looks like we will be moving somewhere to the East Coast next year, where we can get proper 4 seasons

[sabi 148]

We agreed on Chicago as it would be probably easier for me to get a job in there with all the Polish community also it's close to winter resorts for snowboarding plus connections to Europe are much better (direct flights)... so yeah most probably Chicago but I might still convince him to move back to California

A Mini? In Texas?

Uhm.... You know texas is a truck state right? Yousa gonna get squished!

Probably stay in texas for a while but we're both interested in Seattle and Chicago. Colder but the job markets are fantastic.

Also I told work today... that scared the ####### out of me

Seattle is a constant rain, are you sure after living in Wales you want it? Or is it that you think you're going to miss rain that much??

at the end of the day, we just have each other no one else would ever understand what we are going through! One day one person is down , other day another! but we are hanging in there because we have a little support and we find a comfort here my fiance thinks I am down sometimes because of this website and reading all the stories here but the truth is, if not you guys, I would be really depressed by now, by not knowing what the heck is happening and I would feel like the only one going through a hell of waiting...

Same for me ! Thank god i have all of you guys ! Otherwise i would go nuts ! Touched on 02/08 and still no activity on mine ! Come on VSC you can do it !!

mini cooper is basically the only 'european sized' car i've ever seen in new orleans! that and a few smart cars and priuses. i just refuse to have a gas-guzzling monster vehicle, even if petrol actually seems pretty cheap to me over there!

I agree, I am extremely grateful for our January family. We all feel each other's pain and can share in each other's joy. It's awesome. My fiance also thinks maybe I spend too much time on this site, and I tried to stay away, but I do get comfort reading everyone's posts.

I think we discussed about 50 pages ago about the whole meeting in Texas. It doesn't matter to me, I'm up for wherever the majority wants to meet, but I definitely thinks it's an awesome idea!! If we do meet in Texas then perhaps some of us locals can be the ones that take care of finding the best place for everyone to meet and stay!

My fiance was born in California but has lived in Texas since he was 8 years old... He's a Texan through and through.. we won't be moving... lol. But so far I have visited there 5 times and I absolutely love it there. Being from Canada, I hate our cold winters, so this is going to be different! I'm really looking forward to the move!

So c'mon USCIS, approvals for everybody today so we can get on with it!! Yeeeee Hawwww!!

[djricky4 67]

really wishing for some activity on vj today. come on USCIS, open the flood gates....make us all happy today and positive for the upcoming week. you all had us waiting so long, i can imagine its gonna be a bitter sweet feeling for a lot of us, the joy of getting it but the pain of waiting so dam long.

[Rob&Ema 12]

I live up here in Oklahoma. Been here 16 years so we will prob be staying here. Only a few states I would live in, Texas, Wyoming. I love the mountains, but finding the right combination of income level, a place to live and work. Hard to beat Tulsa.

I know. Holding out hope that maybe could get this today...Pretty much next in line if they go through these things in sequence..ahh. the suspense.

I would like us to move further up the east coast, maybe to Connecticut or Pennsylvania. I haven't explored this part of the country much, but it would be easier to get a direct flight to Europe and would hopefully have more job opportunities. This would be after we have the AOS out of the way and we have a little bit of savings, I think. I don't even know the best way to go about moving states

As a fellow 1/17 NOA1 person, I hope today or next week is our time. It's nice to see that some NOA1s from 1/17 are approved, and I'm definitely ready for mine!

Yes. we're all next in line. Hope they do a few more petitions today. Maybe they'll finish the week a little stronger since they started it off so weakly.
