I know sometimes I get reading all the posts and start worrying if I have done everything right or forgot something, and have to go away for a couple of days to relax a bit!

Is just me or is it a part of having to rely on someone in an office half a world away who has power over you and your spouse's happiness?

But Kathlene and I are on the downhill slope! DS-230 and I-864 are turned in and hopefully they will be on their way to Manila in the next couple of weeks!

i didnt join until our K1 interview date, but even then I had to take some time to absorb all of this. at this point i enjoy taking in lots of new info, but at first it was daunting. i think people need to relax and support the noobs.

I have to agree with you there... i think the farther along we are in this process we forget what is was like at the beginning... how scary and confusing everything seemed ....

yeah, the guides are there for everyone to read but most people would rather hear from people with personal experience....

adding to that Marilyn, I would be a bit more irritated with a more seasoned member who is familiar with the process and the site vs. the noobs who are understandably overwhelmed.

That is a great point. I have tried to make that point before, as well. I totally agree with you.

Sometimes I have to take a 1 or 2 day break from here and this visa stuff. It can drive me crazy if I sit here day in and day out. There is a ton of information to process and put together and I find that my little breaks help with that.

Sometimes you can't get too much of a good thing.

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
