You can see episode 2 of the new 90 Day couples. Y'all, this teenager needs a swift kick to the teeth. As she's waiting for her Spanish fiance to come out of his interview, she explains to her mother that "7 out of 10 people who do this are frauds" (in response to mom's question about how likely he is to get the visa).

 

This, the girl who was approached on Instagram by a much older foreign guy when she was underage and who has known him less than a year (their planned wedding is/was before their 1 year mark) and who has spent only 2 weeks in his presence. And yet her only concern is the 70% of OTHER couples who will make their visa harder.

 

So many words that would get blacked out here. So many.

Wow!!!!

I should be clear, episode 2 is on TLC Go as a preview or whatever. It'll air next week but you can see it now.

Marriage/ AOS Timeline:

23 Dec 2015: Legal marriage

23 Jan 2016: Wedding!

23 Jan 2016: "Blizzard of the Century", wedding canceled/rescheduled (thank goodness we were legally married first or we'd have had a big problem!) :sleepy:

24 Jan 2016: Small "civil ceremony" with friends and family who were snowed in with us. December was a bit of a secret and people had traveled internationally and knew we *had* to get married that weekend, and our December legal marriage was nothing but signing a piece of paper at our priest's kitchen table, without any sort of vows etc so this was actually a very special (if not legally significant) day. (L)

16 Apr 2016: Filed for AOS and EAD/AP (We delayed a bit-- no big rush, enjoying the USCIS break)

23 Apr 2016: Wedding! Finally! :luv:

27 Apr 2016: Electronic NOA1 for all 3 :dancing:
29 Apr 2016: NOA1 Hardcopy for all 3
29 Jul 2016: Online service request for late EAD (Day 104)
29 Jul 2016: EAD/AP Approved ~3 hours after online service request
04 Aug 2016: RFE for Green Card (requested medicals/ vaccination record. They already have it). :ranting:
05 Aug 2016: EAD/AP Combo Card arrived! (Day 111)
08 Aug 2016: Congressional constituent request to get guidance on the RFE. Hoping they see they have the form and approve!

K-1 Visa Timeline:

PLEASE NOTE. This timeline was during the period of time when TSC was working on I-129fs and had a huge backlog. The average processing time was 210+ days. This is in no way predictive of your own timeline if you filed during or after April 2015, unless CSC develops a backlog. A backlog is anything above the 5-month goal time listed on USCIS's site

14 Feb 2015: Mailed I-129f to Dallas Lockbox. (L) (Most expensive Valentine's card I've ever sent!)

17 Feb 2015: NOA1 "Received Date"
19 Feb 2015: NOA1 Notice Date
08 Aug 2015: NOA2 email! :luv: (173 days from NOA1)

17 Aug 2015: Sent to NVC

?? Aug 2015: Arrived at NVC

25 Aug 2015: NVC Case # Assigned

31 Aug 2015: Left NVC for Consulate in San Jose

09 Sep 2015: Consulate received :dancing: (32 days from NOA2)

11 Sep 2015: Packet 3 emailed from embassy to me, the petitioner (34 days from NOA2).

18 Sep 2015: Medicals complete

21 Sep 2015: Packet 3 complete, my boss puts a temporary moratorium on all time off due to work emergency :clock:

02 Oct 2015: Work emergency clears up, interview scheduled (soonest available was 5 business days away--Columbus Day was in there)

13 Oct 2015: Interview

13 Oct 2015: VISA APPROVED :thumbs: (236 days from NOA1)

19 Oct 2015: Visa-in-hand

24 Oct 2015: POE !

15 Dec 2015: Fiance's mother's B-2 visa interview: APPROVED! So happy she will be at the wedding! :thumbs:

Not necessarily. My husband has a felony and spent more time locked up than Paul but he has a good enough job. He certainly hasn't needed to cash in his 401k yet!

I-130 filed: February 5, 2016

NOA1: February 8, 2016 Nebraska

NOA2: July 21, 2016

POE: December 19, 2016 Las Vegas

N-400 filed: September 30, 2019

Interview: March 22, 2021 Seattle

Oath: March 22, 2021 COVID-style same-day oath

I mean you knew she would.  Let's face it, a few months with Paul to get a GC is totally doable.  It'll be easy for her to show why she wants a divorce after she gets a GC because he's a) crazy and b) has previous restraining orders.  So she'll do her time with him, get that GC and then leave him.  Or at least I hope so.  I'd hate if she ends up with him long term....

I really hate to just chalk everything off to 'they just want a green card'... although it does happen on some occasions.  There's lots of reasons people choose the people that they do, or see the things in them that they do.  They think their current life will be better, (but not necessarily bc the greencard),  some ppl have low self esteem and just think they aren't getting any better.  But I don't think in Karine case, she has any bad intentions behind her relationship with Paul.  I think she just picked a shitty person to be with, but I don't think she's sitting at home plotting "I gotta get that GC... I gotta get that GC... "

I agree not all couples are GC hungry.  I think Karine is not necessarily after the GC as much as she is after life in the USA.  I believe that if she gets to the USA, gets divorced, she might stick it out for a while, but will probably move back to Brazil eventually.  She's a homebody and even though she lives in a very rural and poor area, she loves her family and her town.  She wants a better life for her and her family, which she could achieve by sending money back to them.  But she surely needs to learn some English first!!!

She has a spine and I think she'll put her foot up Paul's butt if he doesn't act right.

Somewhat.  She certainly doesn't stick up for herself as much as Jenny does!!!  I felt bad for Larry because he seemed to be trying to do the right thing, but he really did mess up and he deserved to know that.  Though Jenny straight up leaving and walking away is childish.  Tell him he messed up, let him apologize and make up for it, then learn and move on!

Larry reminds me of a nervous chihuahua that pees on himself every time he gets nervous. :blink: That boy needs some zanax. :D

I think Cortney and I had the same reaction when Antonio asked if she was on her period and if that’s why she was crying.

It’s more like a train wreck in progress in slow motion and I can’t look away!

 

i actually felt quite bad for Larry today. He’s just so simple and doesn’t understand the implications of his actions.
