congrats! I got worry for most of your post! And called my husband to read him the post. since he is also clueless (and the USC here) so he would have some idea of the questions and pressure on him

you have no sense of humor... :rofl:

I need a sarcasm font

hahaha!!!

btw your twins are adorable

I have three main concerns with Romney:

1) I doubt his ability to truly separate church and state. I know religion can be a big deal in the US, but I don't think it has a place in government.

....

what about HE'S MORMON??!!! C'MON! and he doesn't care about 47% of the population! :wacko:

I'm trying my best to relax. My wife and I carved pumpkins today!

Mine's on the left and the wife's pumpkin is on the right :)

I don't think what religion it is matters, the fact is that we seriously doubt he can keep it separate from State.

I used to say the same thing. I want kids but I don't want to give birth to them. I ended up pregnant with twins and I had a c-section. Giving birth is not bad at all, I had a c-section and a week later I was doing normal life. Is just a few days of being in pain/annoyed, and trust me, you will forget everything when you have a baby (or more) to take care of.

I'm 30 and Sean is 38, he always wanted kids. Me, not so much...hahaha

a c-section isn't really the same thing as a natural birth through the birth canal, though traumatizing nonetheless.

No, of course is not. Pushing a kid naturally is not the same as being sliced open, and being stitched back together

:ot2: PREPARING INTERVIEWS ....

what are you guys bringing to the interview?

1) A full copy of the file you sent?

2) + updated (last 2 months) paystubs, bank statements, and new photos?)

3) Did you keep copies of EVERY tax return/transcript page? and all pay stubs?

(I am going to my FIL (joint sponsor) tomorrow, I didn't made copies of every tax return page when I sent the package, and now I think I should get copies. he is traveling and not coming back until after interview, so tomorrow is my last chance)

4) Does the USC need to bring his passport? or just id (license) Hubby has his passport expired, like 10 years expired. We want to renew it so he can go meet my parents & country for xmas. Renewal takes at least a month, but I am afraid he needs it for the interview then we should wait until after interview (nov 6) to renew. though that would delay renewal process and make it tighter to buy tickets.

1) not required

2) yes paystub of sponsor and co sponsor

3) no

4) Birth certificate is more important but I would advise carry passport too.

see most of documents are not required to be brought again but ppl do for peace of mind. be prepared for separate interview as its a common trend at columbus office.
