Sent our I129F today....rechecked it 50 times before I finally sealed that envelope....and as I sealed the envelope all this waiting to file after 4 years has become so surreal....I was overcome by emotion...Didnt know weather to laugh or cry....I took a picture of the clerk at the post office holding my packet and was even tempted to ask the cute catholic nun in line in front of me to sprinkle some holy water on it or something lol....but as I walked away and left what is technically the determining factor of what our future and happiness will be....I prayed to God and said let your will be done....now Im at peace....AMEN

Amen. Just remember many things will not necessarily make sencse on your journey but accept that you will overcome any possible obstacles and everything happens in HIS time. God Bless, we will be praying for you both. Oh and congratulations on your filing.

The process is ridiculously slow, but (at least most of the time) it works. And there is little or nothing you can do to speed things up. Just be patient and let the process wind its way through the system. You will get there, and once you do, the horrendous amount of time you waited will not matter any more.

Had our I-129f package blessed with holy water by our parish priest here in Ohio last October 2012....same parish priest who wed us last October 2013 Cardington Ohio ...everything we have to do for the immigration papers we offer to God for we believe (me and my husband) that God blessed us that's why we are together now.

...believe and hang on to your love for each other....Have a very happy holidays.

The wait is nothing compared to the feeling as your fiance gets off that plane!! When I saw my wife in Detroit a little over 9 months after starting the process, the wait was forgotten!!

I like your signature.

It made me laugh.

That is all.

Also, congrats on mailing your petition off jjpgy, welcome to the waiting game. :)

I hope this process goes by quick and easy for you.
