Thanks Gavin and Joy! We're trying to stay positive here but today has been really tough for us.

In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.

Initially filed for K1 visa - Feb 23 2012

Due to circumstances beyond our control, we've abandoned this application

We married on Aug 24, 2013 in a small ceremony in MA

We'll be applying for a CR1 / IR1 visa as soon as we are able

*slams head into wall* UGH! We got the report from child services today and it's not what we expected. :crying: :crying: The boys were interviewed and explained how they want to live with us and are scared of their mum. The report states that they now have a good relationship with their mother and that I should move to the UK. I want to know what children they interviewed for this report cause it wasn't his! They go to court Monday and we still have 200+ pages of evidence as to why the boys need to live with us in USA. This report just blindsided us and I'm trying very hard to not mope around. Please send good thoughts our way and I'll let you know what happens on Monday.

Sorry to hear this. Hope this will work out for you.

London folks. I need to pay the visa fee from here, is there a link to pay it with a credit card?

You have to do it over the phone I believe. I'm not sure if you can do it through the DOS. I called the embassy number to do it with my card. The other thing (which would be slow) would be to use this form... http://photos.state.gov/libraries/unitedkingdom/164203/cons-visa/NIV030a_credit_card_pre-auth.pdf

If I do it over the phone then will the receipt be mailed to him? I know he has to show it's been paid, but I'm confused as how that happens.

The receipt is emailed. You can probably have it emailed to either you or him. Unfortunately the only way to pay it is by calling the extortion line and paying the 1.23/minute to pay the fee. Rob said the call didn't take that long, though.

I had the strangest day yesterday...my mum and myself left with a jammed packed car and went to a car boot sale. We set up and it was so strange to stand with lots of my life on sale and then see it piece by piece walk away from me! It was such a liberating feeling though and just reminded me so so much of the fact that it's all just 'stuff'! It was exciting then to see it going to new owners knowing that it is just part of my preparation for a brand new life with Jason...a life which we have been waiting so long for that will be full of brand new memories and no doubt a lot more 'stuff'!!!!! It will be OUR stuff tho :) The money will also come in useful on our honeymoon!

I pray that all goes well for everyone this week...court dates, NOA2's, interviews, medicals, flights! :dance: xx

They email it to the address you give him, it's a PDF document. So just a case of printing it off :)

I agree, it was strange for me. Sad to see some things go, but at the same time liberating. I had a few clear outs. I went through my things and thought that was it. I went through my things a few weeks later and was wondering why I had not put things in the first clear out. Same on the third and fourth ones! :bonk:

Did everyone get vaccinations during medical exam for applying for fiance visa? I just want to know that I'm not the only one who got it. My fiance told me that for K-1 visa we don't need to have vaccine during medical exam, we can get it when applying for permanent residence after marriage. I just don't understand why the physician not tell me that it is optional, but they just put me through 3 shots and not even explain me what the vaccine are for and why I need them now. Everyone going for medical check-up experience the same thing?

Yes, you do need all your vaccinations up to date... If you don't already have the required shots, they will give them to you or they will not approve your medical until you've gotten them done.
