Hello Everyone! :)

New member here on VJ! Just subscribed the other day :D -and mailed I-129F YESTERDAY! :dance:

Nice to read all the posts and encouragement-the whole process " seems" daunting and alittle scarey, but just knowing that at the end of it all we will be with our love, and that we are not "in the process alone" really helps!

Good luck everyone!

IK HOU VAN JOU, MARK (L) ( if you read this)!

Take a large, almost round, rotating sphere about 8000 miles in diameter, surround it with a murky, viscous atmosphere of gases mixed with water vapor, tilt its axis so it wobbles back and forth with respect to a source of heat and light, freeze it at both ends and roast it in the middle, cover most of its surface with liquid that constantly feeds vapor into the atmosphere as the sphere tosses billions of gallons up and down to the rhythmic pulling of a captive satellite and the sun. Then try to predict the conditions of that atmosphere over a small area within a 5 mile radius for a period of one to five days in advance!

Welcome and congratulations!

It's my weird duty to make sure that petitioners from certain countries know about an accelerated visa process that is available to them. :)

The Netherlands is one of the places where a US citizen petitioner may marry/be married already and go to Amsterdam to file their petition. This is quite different from the fiance visa in the end result (it's more complete) and the speed--most DCF cases are done in a matter of weeks.

You may already know about Direct Consular Filing and have ruled it out, but if you did not already know, here's some info:

Hello everyone,

I’m Mark, Michele’s fiancé!

Even though I subscribed to this board 32weeks ago, I never really been on here a lot, simply because I have not much time to do so.

Even now it took me three times to sign in,…I forgot the “password” along time! :blush:

Anyway, its indeed good to know that we are not alone in this process!

VJ has been a great help already, with the “how’s, what’s & where’s”! ;)

Keep up the GOOD WORK!

Mark (F).

:dance:OUR visa journey has finally started honey, we CAN and WILL do this, hangoninthere honey! :dance:

Mark (L) Ik mis je! (L)

It's just a case of waiting it out and jumping hurdles( and completing forms, sending documents, checking and double checking, photocopying, mailing, signing, swearing......yikes, the list is endless, but soooooooo worth it)!!!!!!!!!!

Take care all (F)
