March TSC

[Kay&Jay 44]

I've landed in the U.S this past Saturday. Everything went well, the flights were good even though it seemed like forever that I was stuck in the planes.

The first officer was very easy going. Took my paperwork and stamped my visa and I was on my way.

I was randomly selected by a customs officer and he asked to go through my stuff. When I told him I was on a K1 Visa after he asked me why I was there, he brought me to the front and went through my luggage quickly. Otherwise I would've waited in line to go through customs, it was very nice of him to do that.

He poked fun at me packing my PS3 in my luggage, noting that I have my priorities straight. We had a laugh at that and he said I was good to go. I went through the doors and it was finally over. The last time she had to come pick me up from the airport and the last time for a long time that I have to go back to that airport.

We started this in the summer of 2008, and now, 6 years later. There's no more thousands of miles between us.

Thank you everyone on this website, without VJ, this wouldn't have been as easy as it was. I will be for ever grateful.

That's so sweet ,congratulations and welcome to the United State of America.

Thanks!

I'm the beneficiary, here's from my consulate review:

"When did you two meet?"

"When did you start dating?" - (forgot this one on my consulate review)

"How did you keep in touch?"

"Did you go visit him again?"

"Did he come to Brazil?" and seemed pleased to hear when I said "yes, 3 times"

"Did he propose?" I said we decided this was the best decision together, he seemed fine with it

"Well, are you ready to move to America?" kind of laughing, I said "yes, I know I look very young", he laughed (I am 20, I look 15)

Then he asked if I did my medical, and since I did it yesterday, he said the visa would be issued when the exams got there if everything is ok, but that I am approved, and said congratulations.

It wasn't a tense conversation at all, and I am a very tense person.

Congrats!! I am glad it went well for you and welcome to America soon. You will love living in Austin.

Sounds awesome!

My fiance was supposed to have his interview on the 11th. The embassy called him yesterday and said they were going on holiday, so they rescheduled it for the 18th.

The embassy called him? Is it a holiday on the 11th? :/

Wow, that's really strange! How didn't they know it was a holiday?

Does he live in the same city as the embassy? If that had happened to me, it would have been a big problem...

I didn't realize Veteran's Day is on a Tuesday. I forgot it wasn't always a Monday holiday. How the embassy didn't notice it on the calendar sooner, I don't know!

No, he lives about 6 hours from the embassy.
