this big wedding planning is driving met NUTS !!! I cannot understand for the life of why people do not understand the RSVP concept. I've already self-addressed AND stamped the bloody envelopes :angry::angry:

i just spoke with one of my moms cousins and i asked if he and his wife plan to attend, he's like, c'mon, you know we're going to be there...i'm like i don't know sh!t cause you didn't send the flippin' card back...

invites went out the first week of may, with an rsvp deadline for this saturday, the 17th...that's 6 weeks that i gave people to respond...and here I am, 4 weeks before the wedding and I have to be tracking people down

i swear, if people show up unannouced, there will be no place for them to sit and no food for them to eat. when i give my final count to the caterer they are going to be assed out... :angry:

ok i'm done venting now :yes:

Good morning all,

I got touched on my I130 :dance::dance: wonder what is going on, it has been untouch since may 23.

yay!! congrats...i hope it's a good touch ;)

Kelly -- Congratulations!! It sure has been a long journey for the both of you (L)

Regarding the brown envelope -- he will give that to the Immigration officer at the airport. Tell him NOT TO OPEN IT. He will keep the envelope with his chest x-ray as a souvenir.

Hey everyone I'm at work :help: Checking in.. :P

Congrats Kelly..if in the even that Craig opens the big brown evelope :bonk: don't over react like I did :huh: In our case they did not make a big deal about it.

Tee...congrats on the touch...See......The end soon come fa us ALL :lol:

If you guys don't know already I lOOOOOVE my hubby. He got up earily this morning, honey is the car dirty???I'm like why :blink: ????(I just know he didn't expect me to have already washed it :whistle:) No wife of mine drives around in a dutty carr. :yes::blush: I had another D is an idiot moments :yes:

Good morning all,

I got touched on my I130 :dance::dance: wonder what is going on, it has been untouch since may 23.

:dance::dance:

wouldn't mind dancing like this if they send me an approval for my big day next week :yes::dance:

I do not wish to share any information about this dead end journey.........I have reached my final destination on this train, and it is time for me to get off.

THIS TOO SHALL PASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

one more thing, just checked the case status online...and Squito's EAD was touched yesterday!! :dance::dance: i hope that means an approval is on it's way...it hadn't been touched since april 22

Ms. Squito,

Remember to add your name to this list of CSC transferees in the AOS forum.

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=387

I already did, thanks! I've been watching all of their timelines :yes:

Congratulations on the approval. I am sooo happy for you both! :dance: The brown envelope he must not open it. Arrival for Rohan about 1 1/2 months ago in JFK was reall simple. I feel you on the small wedding thing, mine is going to be around 100 people and it is soo stressful. Cant wait to get it over with and escape.

Girl, we've got 200 people and they are making me nutty :angry:

thanks I really hope this touch means somse good news I could really use it.

I have two questions:

1. can one get expedited processing due to extreme illness?

2. {this might be stupid but I have been having the weirdest thoughts lately :whistle::whistle::whistle: ...............} Is it possible for someone to be denied by the NVC? I was on the train trying not to think about the constant neausea I have been having and it just popped in my head to ask. Going crazy I guess.. :whistle::whistle::wacko::wacko:

hey ladies,

I know it has been a while, but no computer at home anymore, so I can only catch up at work. With my new position, I have absolutely no time to get on the site. So here I am!! We just went for biometrics today, so hoping not too much longer til we get our interview date!!! Is that how it works, does anyone know?

Squitto---- i feel your pain, i was calling people 2 days before, don't they know the value of a stamp, we provided, use it!!!

Everything is going alright between me an the hubby, but there are hatters out there trying to fill my head with bull****!!!

Is anyone else have this problem?? How are you handling it?

I don't think so.....I think you have to put in your account number otherwise they wouldn't know it was you calling......unless you got a "human" to talk to.

Not that I know of. We have on people on this and other boards with impending pregnancies and cancer and what not....to no avail. I do remember one guy last year whose wife was going to have a preemie and the us embassy in London upped his interview date and he arrived in the US just in time for the baby's birth.

For those of you who have IDT calling card... can you call the 800# and see if it tells you your balance even though you didnt put in your acct number?

I don't think so.....I think you have to put in your account number otherwise they wouldn't know it was you calling......unless you got a "human" to talk to.

I had IDT program my pin into my home, cell and office phone, so I just dial 800# and it tells me my balance right away. Don't know if that helps.
