Yardies, at home and a farrin' (Part 4)

MyDestiny- Thanks...for the response. My fiance is stressing out. He has tried to call them this morning and the phone lines are tied up. So he's calling me complain about how the call isn't going through. Not to mention that he still has not received Packet 3. So I will be calling the embassy today...and begging them to please let him pick them up. Packet 4 was sent out on the 27th but he hasn't received it.

If you getting married at the justice of peace, does a witness need to come along?

Donna's Certificate of No Impediment took about one and one half weeks to come through the mail to her house (Spanish Town to Kingston).

Do you know if we need the appointment letter to set up the medical exam?

I am not sure. I would like to know that myself.

You don't need it to set up the date..u have to take it to the appointment

Does anyone have the link to the thread about the locations for the medical exams? It so funny how i never really paid any attention to it. I tried to search...but I'm coming up short.

Okay..I'm on for August 14th too. Got the word from the embassy today.

Oh my goodness. I was trying to wait until I got to the end of all the pages before I posted but there's just too much to remember. Okay,

AlienUKGirl, welcome home!

nannygirl, I'm really sorry the job turned out that way. It's hard not to get discouraged when something like that happens, but tell Mike that we're sending good vibes his way and he will find something soon.

MyDestiny, Jay and Donna and kkholiday, congrats on the interview dates!!!

Okay, to continue reading... I hope I didn't miss anyone.

WOW!! You had a speedy journey CONGRATS to you both

[Sonshyne 2]

Ok we finally got the I-693 completed

We tried to go to the DMV to get a California ID... Well come to find out, in CA they won't give you a CA ID or a drivers license until you have a green card That was new to me because no one told us that before. The first time we went to the DMV we were told that we needed a Social security card. We got that and didn't return until today to try for the ID with no luck.

The good thing is that Neil brought a bike a few days ago and he rides it all over, and he also can ride public tranportation for free being that I work there so he now has tranportation even though he can't legally drive yet.

Mi nuh have fi be worried about him driving mi car yet

Good morning everyone. Congrats to everyone on their progress; it's been good to read such good news on the thread, and best wishes to all of the upcoming interviews!

Calling on Jamie- Do you remember the site where you can purchase online -I'm not sure if it was a voucher or store credit- for a specific grocery store to help out someone in Jamaica? It basically entailed on online purchase and the person in Jamaica could go to the store and select what they wanted for the amount of money that you purchased online?

Have a great weekend everyone!

What's everyone's summer vacation plans?

Hi Michele

I have never actually done it but I have heard from others who have done it and had good results. Just remember to check the store locations on the website to make sure that whoever is going to pick them up won't have to go to far.

Man I was looking forward to eating at Maxine's booth at the taste on Saturday. What a total bumme.r It use to be good. What did u have Anna? I guess I will have to eat something else at the Chi Taste.

Remember they have several cooks so the food varies from time and time. I had the curry goat b/c the oxtail didn't look good. It was sloppy and wasn't brown. When I finally got the goat I wished I could change my mind b/c it was "white". I can't eat my meat w/no color, I'm a picky eater. My daughter got the jerk chicken and she didn't like it either. They only had a few selections to choose from. Maxine is a good cook but some of her cooks na ready.

We ate at the taste and it wasn't Maxines some place starting with a V. We had chicken, rice and peas and plantain. My hubby, dad, and myself thought it was horrible. The taste was ok and hubby ran into a friend which was nice. I wore him out making him walk to Navy Pier and then back to Millennium Park. He wasn't impressed by the beam.

Michelle are vacation this summer is going and seeing the sites of Chicago. I don't need to go far for him to have a great time and it has been so much fun.

What summer vacation plans do u have Michelle?
