And don't say if he gets approved, you mean WHEN. :thumbs: Wow, by the time we're up in the morning he'll be done.

That's it - the power of positive thought! Perhaps we can heap a lot of that towards Morocco (L) and hope that the Embassy can reopen soon!

Thanks for the good wishes!

For us the worst is OVER! YAY!!!!! Just wait until you feel the relief - it is even better than I anticipated - you'll see! :D

Hi all,

I haven't been checking in much lately...there isn't much to report. things are going along at a snails pace. We have been offered an expidited interview since all the ####### of our sttuf getting lost in the mail...but i dn'thtink we can really accept it early since we still have so many things we are waiting on, police records from Canada, I-134's, birth certificates for his girls, a letter from the mother lettin them immigrate. I'm getting a bit frustrated. I liked filing the I-129F better. those were all things I had to gather. It's killing me waiting for my fiance to gather all his stuff up...he is definatly Caribbean.

But I'm sure it will all be just fine.

Congrats

Shannon, I'm so happy for you and Adrian, what a relief it must be! Let us know when you book hi flight.

Jen, I'm sending my Jedi mmind tricks over to your embassy willing themto open. It just stinks that it can't find some way to honor those interview dates.

Tonyeck, Congrats on the medical, Tht interview will go by in a breeze I'm sure of it.

ummm I hope I'm not forgetting anyone

Sue! I had to quote that one sentence, your post almost made me cry..it really is totally true though. When you are doing it all yourself, you know everyday what's going on, when you release it, it can make you 1000 times crazier..I wonder if Craig felt the same way when I was gathering information for the I-129F application??

Kym,

thanks....I don't want to make you cry though!

I have to say, Kellon seems to have gotten the hint. He has definatly got into high gear in getting stuff done, but unfortunatly it will still take a bit of time waiting for things to trickle in. But it will all be fine I'm sure.

On the other hand, I've been thrilled to read about those of us who are progressing nicely. Some with Visa's in hand, some with medicals done, some just waiting for an interview. I wish the US wasn't so big, I'd suggest we all get together for martini's when we are all there. But I guess I'll just have to drink one for you all. :D

Thanks Sue, Kim, safitu, jlvr and anyone I missed! We are so excited! We bought our plane tickets ages ago, as soon as his interview date was set, so I am glad his Visa was already delivered by the courier in 2 short days - :dance: - WOW!!

I am flying over to pick him up tomorrow, then we are getting ready for June 9th - weird so many things happen that day - it is also my parent's 40th Anniv. this year! We thought that might bring us luck! :D

Good luck to everyone - keep the faith and don't let it drive you crazy. The wheels grind along slowly, but we are proof that they are at least moving!! :thumbs: We will stop back in soon for everyone's progress report -- I want good news! :yes:

Shannon, I'm so happy for you. Your journey is almost over. I can imagine how you'll feel when you both arrive here, ready to start your lives together. :thumbs:(F)

RGNSCOT, you're coming along, too. That's great. Have you finished compiling all of the paperwork?

Everyone, keep Jen and Sue in your thoughts and prayers for some good luck and speed to come their way.

safitu, how is everything going with the adjustment? When are you going to try to go for the SSN? And when is the wedding?

Just starting the journey, haven't yet filed... Until today(2/12/07)!

Thanks Jlvr,

I have a small update. We faxed the DS-230 to the embassy yesterday (Monday)...we had ANOTHER set back. Kellon realized he had been listing his twins birthdate wrong. UGh, so we had to get it fixed on the I-129F (at the embassy) which wasn't very bad at all, it was fixed with one email. But the birth certificate we ordered are now going to take a month longer to get. man oh man

I still don't have the I-134 or other miscellaneous things in hand, but I think it's closer to being done. The other stuff is cool, I'm handling the rest of it!

A very bright light in all of this has been a chip I called in, I managed to get the Head of Immigration in Barbados to answer my questions personally. (I had to attend a dinner with the Ambassedor once....Somebody owed me). This guy has been so incredibly helpful in answering questions. He feels terrible about the delays and missing packets and what-not, so he just emailed me and asked me what day I want to have Kellons interview. He would have put it next month, but I requested the second week in July. Who knows when all this stuff will get here in the mail.

So I'll let you know when have the exact date. Hopefully everything will fall into place!

Cheers

Sue
