So after being on AP for about 4 months my husband went and picked up his visa today!! Wow words can't describe how happy I am. I want to thank Visajourney and its users for help on this visa journey of ours. when I first wanted to start this process I didn't think I could do it without a lawyer, but I was wrong. I did this by myself with of course help from Visajourney. So don't spend your money on lawyers because that's just a waste of money when you can do it yourself. Thank you everyone!! :)
