Countdown to Amman!

[abezyo 35]

Hello all! Ive been on this forum for sometime now but I have never posted on the MENA section! So good morning to you all (Or evening if you happen to be overseas lol). Im leaving in 70 days to Amman to visit my wife and inshallah (god willing) bringing her back IF she has the IR1/CR1 visa! But who knows...We have been waiting for about 7 months now and stuck at the Atlanta local field office (since I live in Alabama and we have no office here closer). Atlanta supposedly just started processing stand-alone I-130's this month! So inshallah im hoping for some action before I depart to Amman!

Just a little bit of my story as of right now! I wanted to join up on this side of the forum since im tired of looking at the same post about Atlanta and people getting approved lol. So with that...

Asalamu Alakum to all my brothers and sisters in Islam.

and

Hello to all my brothers and sisters outside of Islam.

Inshallah he will be right behind you! Good luck with your visit! And yes definitely due for a visit! Leaving May 24 and coming back July 5th so I pray that the whole process will be complete so she can come back with me before Ramadan!

Wow mashallah! 9 years! May god keep you guys together forever! I am Palestinian also and my mom is American (Irish/Native American). My wife is Palestinian but she was born and raised in Amman. My family is from a small village by Nablus across from the Ariel settlement! Ive been there many many times! I love Palestine!

Im sure I wont be as bored as looking at all those approvals and asking myself when are we next . But inshallah Allah has a plan for everything! Thanks for the warm welcoming!

I wish you the best of luck , my fiancee is in Jordan and we are praying to have our petition approved next month. This process is so hard and it helps to know others are out there going thru the same thing. My god 9 months so so long to be apart... that is how long we were apart until i made my fourth trip last Novmeber to see him... I can only imagine how excited you are to have a date you will be going... I remember how excited I would be once my ticket was issued and i knew what day at what time I would see his smiling face waiting for me at the airport in Amman.

Inshallah you will have good news before then.

Best regards,

Jennifer

Thanks for the nice words - it's great to see more Palestinians here, as we have very few on VJ ! Is your family from the Salfit area ? I have a very good friend living in Kafr a Deek, which is maybe 8km from Salfit.

God bless you and your wife - may you be reunited soon and never apart again.

Yes it is great! Not many of them do you see! We are from the village called Kifil Harrith! I believe its near Salfit. Its literally right across from the Ariel settlement!

God bless you and your husband! May you always be blessed

I see your village on the map:

I call the Ariel Bloc the "giant Israeli middle finger of illegal settlements" - it cuts right in between your village (to the north) and Salfit (to the south).... built on what used to be agricultural lands belonging to your village, Salfit, and other villages in the area.
