Congrats with completing everything! And yes! Taking all my coins. Do I have to pay a separate fee for his daughter? And also did you have to pay a fee for Affidavit of support? 

Thanx!   Here on out it is any process we have to do we are together doing it, and we really don't care how long it takes now.

 

yes, DS-160 and Interview fee for him and another DS-160 and interview fee for the daughter.

 

Medical for him with a fee and Medical for daughter with a fee.

 

If immunizations are included with the medical, best to get them because if you have to get them when you adjust status it is really expensive.

 

I-134 affidavit of support has no fee involved.  It is submitted as evidence if it is asked for.

 

Happy you are making progress and this is finally coming to reality.  Nothing like getting that Visa In Hand, except getting that Fiance In Hand

Hope everyone is close to being done. Just an update we got the ssn taken care of getting married in las Vegas next Friday. So excited and glad to have my lady here. Everyone not done keep your head up and you will be done soon

My fiance has boarded the plane to Frankfurt. He should be here tomorrow afternoon. I can barely contain my excitement!! I hope everything goes smoothly for him....

Just a quick update. POE on 11/12 (hard to believe it's just two days ago!) Everything related to the POE part went very quickly, hardly even an interview.

 

However... CBP in their infinite wisdom decided that guinea pigs were in fact actual swine-type pigs , and declined their entry into the US after they had cleared security.

 

So now we're working on pet shipping options. As you might imagine, she was crushed being separated from her pets, but we'd planned for this contingency and a "good guy" CBP officer took it upon himself to make sure they were returned to our designated helper on the Canadian side.

 

Aside from the pet issue, we're happy as can be to finally be together, and hope the rest of you waiting will be in our position soon. Still have some paperwork to wrap up on the US side, but we expect to be married in early December.

Visa approved, Visa in hand and POE on Mondayyyyy for my fiance 😀 

[Ste&Sel 151]

Approved...couple days to Visa POE 12.2.17. She was even had interview day with another VJ fiance on here. 

[Rev 392]

So happy to come on here and see so many approvals and POEs and others getting close!  My guy has been here about five weeks now.  We got married 10/22 and his AOS packet off in the mail yesterday.  Such a relief to have that done, except for the stress of once again hoping it's all there and done correctly!  He's anxious for that work authorization, though I quite like having him here stuck with me

Thanks man! Hope you two are enjoying your togetherness finally. POE is Dallas now for my fiance, easier flight time....more time in airport...but less time on that flight.

Yay Congrats on all the recent approvals and upcoming POE's. So happy for you all.

 

Yesterday Chris and I went to the El Paso County recorder to get our marriage license. Took us maybe 10 minutes and we were out the door license in hand. Chris is going to call officiants today to see if anyone is available the afternoon of December 9th. *crosses fingers* We also tried to get my drivers license but I have to go to the main DMV office here in Colorado Springs. The gal said you better come before we open and you might wait all day. I am like well I waited 4.5 hours for my SSN I am sure I can wait all day for my drivers license. Seriously this waiting is nothing compared to waiting to get your NOA2. LOL

 

A few days ago my fiance's Mom called me on my cell to welcome me to the USA and into the family. I  had a nearly one hour chat with her and we discovered we both love cooking competition shows.  She told me that she was so happy I came into her sons life and started crying because all she wanted was for her son to be happy in a relationship and that finally he was. She said to me I won't say anything about his ex wife but that he was never totally happy in that marriage. She feels he rushed into it. She said she can already tell what a kind and caring person I was and how easy I was to talk to. I thanked her for her kind words. Ironically Chris got married at 25 years old so he wasn't that young. I like to joke with him and say hun I was 15 when you got married the first time. Usually he looks at me and says yep and now I am robbing the cradle. HAHAHAHA

Yaaaaay, I was waiting to read that from you! Congrats!!
Wow, Lady, you're on the speed train! My POE was earlier, my wedding a few days later, and my AOS pack is not even half ready! Lazy lazy!!
Good luck for AOS! May it be smooth!

Congratulations!!!!
And - considering the fact that you had the "pleasure" with the Nigerian embassy - you had a pretty "speedy" AND approved K-1 journey! Yay! All the best for you!



Just saying hi from Virginia to you all!
I'm glad to see that almost everyone of our Marchies has the journey in dry towels! Hoping not many are still waiting!

It's funny how much easier the marriage license is than everything else!

 

What documents did you need (other than passport and i-94) for the SSN? We still have a week wait but it's unclear if we need some other form of ID.
