Hello everyone !!!

Hello everyone. I'm very happy to have had this opportunity to read stories about everyone's sucesses for the past 2 plus years. I thought it was about time I introduced myself.

I am from Montana, USA and have traveled to China many times as my University Major was Chinese History and Culture. I have visited Nanning for the Mid-Autumn festival in Sept-Oct of 2003. I have also been to Guilin, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Beijing, Chong Qing, Shenyang, climbed the Great Wall at Badaling, and met and married my wife, Xiaoqi in Anshan, China on 23-26 of Novemter 2005. I say the two dates for the wedding because we were actually married by the Chinese Government in Shenyang on the 23rd and married in a Church in Anshan, on the 26th.

I returned back to the USA and Filed the I-130 and waited for the approval and then filed the I-129. (I must say, if you know you are going to get married, get a start on the paperwork before you even make the trip. It will make it a lot easier if your foreign spouse can do her end of the papers while you are together as it will save a lot of mailing back and forth time. I didn't do this so the road has been hard and tedious as I have not seen my wife in more than 13 months. Everything has now been approved and we are just waiting for the physical/interview dates. I have learned very much from this site and from postings of members about the process. Thank you all for your stories and information. It seems that some are approved faster than others, but circumstances for each are different, and I know my wife and I will be together soon. I wish everyone who reads this has a very happy marriage and prosperous life together with thier new loved ones.

My wife will have to travel from Anshan, China to Guangzhou for her inteview and physical. I have friends living in Guangzhou who can assist my wife in this huge and strange city and help keep her safe. I would appreciate any information and experiences about your Guangzhou interviews.

Thank you all again, and I hope we can maintain a lifetime of friendships together.
