Praise God. my wife is here now in the US with me. We Arrived at DFW at about 8:45 Am on 11/18/2015. The line was so long for non US residence travelers. When it was our turn to approach the Boarder Patrol agent. I told him I am a USC and my wife is migrating with me and this is her first time. The agent asked couple questions, how long we have known each other and how much money we had on us. The agent took my wife's finger prints, and took her photo and the the agent told us to follow him so they can process all these papers he said. We waited in the waiting room for almost 3 hours and my wife was finally called to the window. They did not ask her any question they just handed her the passports and said your Green card will arrive in the mail in 6 months. The waiting room was really crowded when we got in. Praise God our 9 month journey needed very successfully.

Yaaay!! Congrats Ibreal1!!! Really happy for both of you! Have a happy and very loooong journey together! :)

I saw two weeks as well.

Hi everyone. Haven't been here in a while... For those of you who may remember me, wanted to let you know our case was FINALLYYYYY approved this week!!! Praying the rest of this journey is speedier than it has been so far, but trusting that God's timing is perfect.

Congratulation..... Wishing you a smooth sail through NVC.
