Hello I am Jason, I married my beautiful wife Marina from Argentina in April and I am trying to get my wife to the USA as quickly as possible (L). I have managed to get past the immigrations and customs part of the process. I am now in the NVC stage, It seems to be more complicated and unclear than the previous part. My wife lives in a small town in Northwest Argentina, it is 2 hours by plane to Buenos Aires so getting her to the medical examination and interview is going to be difficult and costly in and of itself, she has never traveled out of her general area. She has a 3 year old boy Esteban who is now my son and I will be adopting him once they finally get here. She is getting frustrated with the length of time and all the requirements that the immigration process involves but we love eachother much and I must figure this out on my own. The first lawyer I talked to wanted to charge me 4500 dollars to help me with immigration, it was at that moment I decided to do all the work myself instead of getting ripped off by a lawyer. Hopefully I can navigate through this NVC process as quickly as possible, thanks for any and all help and advice. Jason

Jason, you are in the right place. There are some really awesome VJ'ers here that will give you the advice you need.

Hang in there...

A little hint: You should fill out your profile information so the VJ'ers will know the type of Visa you have applied for, and where you are in the process. It will help them determine what steps you need to take.
