I can't even imagine what prices are from abroad, especially when domestic prices can be expensive (like my $700 flight to DC for example).

You shouldn't have an issue; by the time your packet is scanned by the NVC, it will appear as paid on your summary page. When is your US wedding?

Flights within the European Union isn't that bad at all, even some flights to the USA.. but food, and other services.. that's why we like getting things abroad :P. I'm not paying $100 for a pair of levi jeans when I can get them for $30! Haha. Plus my wife's make up gets really expensive here too with the brands she likes :/.

You do know there are still people from March 2013-May 2013 still in the NVC, plus there already are people from 2014 at the NVC stage as well..

I am a Jan 2013 filer STILL at NVC!!!! ARGHHHHH!!!!! They have done nothing but screw up our case repeatedly. 1 year for NOA2. Then USCIS never sent our case to NVC.. but they made us wait ~4 months before they would even look into it.. I am so sick of all this nonsense and seeing people who applied months and months and months and months after us get their visas ahead of us. Makes me so sick. All I want to do is be with my husband.

IR1/CR1 Visa - We are using a lawyer!

Embassy: Montreal, Canada

USCIS

22 Jan 2013 -- packageSent
31 Jan 2013 -- NOA1 from NBC

6 Mar 2013 -- I130 transferred to Orlando local field office (which started the whole nightmare)

Mar 2013 to October 2013 no one would tell us where our case was or what was happening. I suspected the whole time it was just sitting in a corner somewhere in the Orlando field office. I was pretty much right.

October 2013 - get congressman involved. Congressman asks USCIS repeatedly about our case but they won't even tell them anything.

31 Jan 2014- finally get NOA2!!!! (we think the nightmare is over!)

NVC

Our case was not sent from the Orlando field office as it should have been. The nightmare continues. We kept calling NVC and asking if they received our case, and they always said "NO" and that we had to wait 90 business days for it to be received. We called USCIS during this time and they kept telling us it had been sent. After the 90 days of agonizing frustration, NVC then started telling us we had to wait 120 business days. I got our congressman involved again, and they told the congressman it was sitting at the Orlando office this whole time (just as I thought it was!).

22 Apr 2014 -- NVC received
16 May 2014 -- NVC case number assigned
24 May 2014 -- AoS and IV bills paid

28 May 2014 -- Sent AoS and IV Packages

6 June 2014 -- documents scanned

18 July 2014 -- false checklist from NVC

21 July 2014 -- Case complete

28 July 2014 -- receive case complete email from NV

30 July 2014 -- interview booked! September 11 here I come!

Embassy
04 Sept 2014 -- Medical
11 Sept 2014 -- Interview - APPROVED!!!!
15 Sept 2014 -- Package arrived at Loomis location!!!

**03 Oct 2014 -- POE!! **

I NOW LIVE IN OCALA, FL!!!!

Yeah, even with the conversion rate, Canada still has higher prices on most items. I always remembered book prices were so much cheaper in the US (yes, I'm a bookworm B-) ).
