Hey everyone. It's nice to read all the EAD/AP and GC news. .

I have been away because I had to urgently travel to Mexico on sunday because my grandma was hospitalized. I knew this could happen anytime and I was worried about being able to travel to be by her side. She and I are very close.

I'm so lucky I had my combo card.

After I messed up buying my flight ticket with my married name, I was able to show my passport with my maiden name and get my boarding pass after showing my marriage certificate.

I was able to be in time to see her and she was aware I was there with her. We said how much we loved each other, we held hands and said our final goodbye. :(

I will travel back tomorrow to the US and see how the Combo card works. I am nervous, so I hope everything is smooth because I feel so down I don't think I could handle a nasty immigration officer.

Wish me luck guys.

I'll write an update as soon as possible.

Alex and I have been friends for 23 years. We met in Mexico City and kept in touch as our friendship grew. On April 28, 2015 everything came into place, we confessed our love for each other and became a couple, and on June 13, 2015 we decided to get married (L)(L)(L) On February 4th, 2021 I became a US citizen.

I've never mentioned this on here, the wife didn't want me too since we were not doing an emergency AP. But, she too lost her father about 2 months after she arrived here. It was the day after Father's Day. She never got to go back to see him though. I did inform her of the emergency AP we could attempt to get so she could go to the funeral, but after talking she was terrified to risk using something like that to travel back and forego all we have worked for to get her here in the first place and wanted to take that money she would've used and just send it to her family so that all of them could attend the funeral and what not. Every day I can on imagine the hurt she has not getting to say good bye to him or even going to his funeral, and consider myself to be so lucky knowing that I have this woman who has given up so much just to be with me.

Anyway I need to stop, I am at work and can't start tearing up here hehe. I will say this though, I loathe the process we all have to go through. Every time I fill out one of those electronic forms to reduce paper work, which I've done 4 or 5 so far, I think about all of the paperwork that I am placing this on top and giggle thinking about what if I did not fill this form out to get electronic notices...the process is silly, inefficient and seriously repetitive.

It's embarrassing to actually be a US Citizen, born and raised here, knowing we have an agency who puts people through so much just so they may live their lives with loved ones and limit them sometimes so they may not be with their loved ones.

And...we still have the ROC and Citizenship papers!!!! More repeat repeat rinse!

Anyway enjoy your weekend and War Eagle!! :)
