Hey guys! I wanted to resurrect this old thread as a way of marking Luz and Robins 1 year anniversary of arriving in America! One year ago today my life forever changed for the better. It's been a very interesting year that has been filled with major milestones. Of course the biggie is we got married on April 23. That was the best day of my life! May of last year we moved from my small apartment and into a duplex that we lived in for almost a year. November saw Luz and Robin getting their green cards. Then of course our first Christmas together was a very important time in our lives. February is when Luz and I bought our house together. Then in March Luz gets her first job and then yesterday Luz buys her first car!

It's been a wonderful year and I am so glad we could share it with our VJ friends. Having you guys here to give us support through the hard times and to help us celebrate the good times has been a Godsend. Thank you all.

The next milestone- our one year wedding anniversary on April 23!

Congrats!!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

It had been a long journey but it was worth the wait.

It has been a year for me as well since the day I arrived here.

Congratulations! May your marriage be as blissful as it has always been.

Really! Congrats to you on your first year!

Thanks everyone! Luz and I consider you all our extended family. VJ has been with us throughout our own visa journey. I don't know what we would have done without it.
