Hello All:

My name is Mike and I live in Florida. I was married on September 15 to Adriana in Bogota Colombia. I have gotten a lot of great information from this site, so finally decided to register. I submitted the I-130 in September and just submitted the I-129F on Friday. Some of the more recent experiences I've read about on the board have given me hope that this process will be completed sooner than later - I hope. I am looking forward to having Adriana and her 9 year old daughter Camila with me in 2007.

Everything I respond to is from personal knowledge, research or experience and I am in no means a lawyer or do I claim to be one. Everyone should read, research and be responsible for your own journey.
