Yardies, at home and a farrin'

Okay, what "everything else" will they be taking from him? Are you talking about when he gets to BWI ? Is there other stuff in the brown envelope that they will open up and take? Or is he supposed to be "handing in" paperwork? When he checks in at Mobay, he'll just show his Passport and VISA? is there anything else?

I'm just trying to prepare him as best as I can. I had already printed out everything and gave it to him this last trip about "what to expect" from going to the airport ...giving him a copy of the immigration and airport info that was inside the Sky Writings magazine from Air Jamaica. Baggage requirements and then what to expect when he gets on the plane, what he'll need to do, they'll feed him, maybe watch a movie, then when he gets to BWI, etc etc blah blah.....

He's starting to get reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally nervous and wishes that I could fly with him ...and "hold his hand".

The only thing they will take from him at POE is the big brown envelope that he's not supposed to open. He is supposed to carry his other envelope with his X-ray in it, but no one ever looked at it at all They will also ask for his Passport of course w/ his Visa inside. Then if I remember right, they take a fingerprint. They pulled us into the little room because we had the wrong pictures in our packet Luckily I had copies of the right ones too - it was right while they were in the midst of changing the picture requirements so there was a lot of confusion. All they were going to do was take more pics for us if we didn't have them.

As for the plane ride, let him know that there are forms that he'll have to fill out on the plane - Customs and Immigration stuff. The flight attendants can always help him w/ this if he needs it. Make sure he knows your address and all that stuff or has it written down so he had all the info. he needs. Also, he'll have to claim if he's bringing anything with him like White Rum like we do every time we go down there!!!

Good luck!

Just one more experience to cross off the list. We are probably going to Disneyland next week -- how do you think he's gonna handle that? [/color]

I took Tony to Cedar Point - a huge amusement park with lots of roller-coasters and stuff. He LOVED it He wanted to go on everything!! I'm a big chicken so there was some stuff I wouldn't even go on, and he went without me He is quite the little daredevil

um, I can't go on roller coasters. I was like, you at least have to *try*!!! We'll probably end up on the slow train ride and petting zoo just like Damien !!!

Roy basically said the same thing. It's probably a good thing we will be going with my sister and her four kids....no "big people" rides. The petting zoo might be right up his alley....

I hate roller coasters! Satan lives there!!!!

Me too. That's one experience that Trevor will have to experience on his own.

Good evening

Good evening

Well it not such a good evening. I have the headache from hell. Hubby is on my nerve

Joanna I think you should if you know for sure he is not going back to Jamaica, you should contact USCIS adn find out what to do, I heard of people that after the fiance has got there that even if they split and the fiance stays in the USA, violating the terms of teh agreement, than the USA citizen is held liable, and that if he becomes a public charge in ANYWAY, it becomes the responsibility of the US citizen, that was the whole reason we filled out the form. Again I am not 100% but I would definatley checkinto that

I really dont think he will stay here illegally, but if he does I will for sure contact USCIS to let them know that he ran off in the US and I do not know where he is.. I odnt think that will happen though.

Just a thought, but didn't he become illegal when you too decided not to stay together???

I think he has 90 days. There was a poster some time back who was in the same situation and came on VJ looking for a bride. It was hilarious. "I have 32 days left. I need a bride." What a maroon!

I need my AOS NOA1 now!!!

Thanks for the info. I already gave him the information (customs/immigration form, a copy) already filled out, so he'll just "cheat" off of that one and put it all in his own writing. He knows my address by heart. He's memorized it. I know they will fingerprint him, well not even fingerprint him, just ask him to put his finger onto that machine and check his fingerprint.

I'm confused, so will he have 2 envelopes ?? I'll have to ask him if he was given 2. They asked you for *more* passport pictures?? Why would they do that? Didn't they already have everything in the packet from the interview ?

So when he gets to immigration ....they ask him for his "big brown envelope"? They'll pull what they need out of it ? and hand him back his x-ray(s)?

Are there any weird questions that he'll be asked..............do you remember if your guys were asked any bizarre questions? Like, why are you here? How long are you staying ? That kind of stuff...

Not worried about any rum....I don't drink it and he's not much of a rum drinker either. In the 26x I've been to Jamaica, I've never carried any liquor back for myself. Oh wait, I did bring back banana rum cream....when I got home I was putting it on top of the frig.....it lost it's balance......and toppled off and broke eeeeeverywhere!!!

Headin to bed....nighty night!

The (would) have given you the chest x-ray at the interview -- but -- your medical was not there. You better ask him if they gave it to him when he got his visa. I have NEVER heard of anybody needing it at the POE or having to do anything with it but put in the closet to collect dust......

That being said, they come with two envelopes. The "brown" one that has all the info and the chest x-ray. You turn the "brown" envelope over to Immigration and you take the x-ray with you. The x-ray will not be in the "brown" envelope.
