Yeah, if you didn't fill in those three lines, you'll most likely get a checklist.

You could send it in with your divorce decree. Just mention in a cover letter why you're sending it in (you realised an error in your submitted I-864 and want to send in a corrected one now).

Saylin is going back to Canada for a trip!! Whoooo!! Enjoy!! :dance:

Husband's POE is tomorrow through Newark, NJ! YAY!!!! Hope it all goes smoothly...

Good luck to you all.

CONGRATULATIONS! Yayyyy!!!

Visa in hand...they REALLY don't want you to open the yellow envelope LOL. There's a stamp on one side that says "do not open", they've taped the seam and ink stamped it twice (and signed the stamps), and then on the other side they've got a big white piece of paper that says "do not open." Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and leave it alone :thumbs:

ROFL! I've read here on VJ about a beneficiary whose PARENT - 1st language English - saw the 'DO NOT OPEN' and still opened it. Just because. headbonk.gif

POE is done.it went smooth.driving to Virginia.4 hours left till I reach home.hubby had to sign a form with me when I was doing POE.I miss by dad.he is crying for me.im going back to Canada next month June 27 for his surgery.

Congratulations! Your Visa Journey is pretty much behind you! Blessings to you and hubby!

Thank you but america sucks! I like Canada more than america.Canadian people are polite and decent.Im here only for my hubby :angry:

WOW!! Neela, try to be open minded. I'm Canadian and have lived in both Canada (ALL over the country) and the United States. There are MANY polite and decent Americans, just as there are MANY rude and offensive Canadians. You and your husband went through a lot to make this move happen and heading into it with that mindset is going to make your adjustment more difficult. I hope you will find that you are pleasantly surprised, more often than not, in your new home.

what form, exactly, did you sign?

Darnell Poe is done at 11.20am.right now driving to Virginia :)

I packed so many things that hubby can't even see anything behind the car in his rare view mirror :lol:

Well, that's a plus.

I'm guessing you not need to source out local shops for underbritches, or any clothing that's cultural-specific - you packed it all.

That's an exceptionally long drive, though. I pray you guys stopped once, overnight, to get some sleep?

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

Whoa Nelly ! Want NVC Info? see http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process

Congratulations on your approval ! We All Applaud your accomplishment with Most Wonderful Kissies !

You can find some fellow 'from my country' people in the city where your husband lives, if you look hard enough. Yer Muslima, yes? hit the biggest mosque in town, and talk to the top 5 Aunties there - they know all for the city.

Well, you haven't lived here YET - yer still in the drive south.

I say give it 11 months, then rework yer opinion, but

in those 11 months - yer life, experiences and new connections are ONLY what you have made, no one will help you except you.

Seriously.
