I used to get spam sites on iPhone but downloaded Norton Adblocker and no more spam. Always on visa journey had problems, I recommend you download it (free)

Does that work on iPad?  I could afford one of those!!!  I have an old Samsung.  If I can afford an iPhone, it will go to my fiancé because his phone is ready to die.  I don't even have a TV.  I am keeping it light in case we get denied.  Somehow I will find a way and go to live in Egypt.  I can't keep up this separation.  I am glad that I love Egypt and have more friends there than I do here.  But the constant interruptions on this site on the iPad are so annoying!!!

Lets hope not😔, our girls are 5 and 8 and i could never ask my fiance to leave them behind if that were the case.

I could not even imagine my life without Aira and AJ.  If that happens we will have no choice but find another place where we can live together as a family.  This should not be this hard.

Not everyone's fiancé even wants to live in the US.  We just want to stay here a few years so I can pay off my student loan and other debts (by me working my job) and getting a few more years in on my pension and then go back to live in Egypt.  They are treating everyone like they all want to come here take everyone's jobs and bring 30 family members. 

That's so true. Settling on the states versus Sweden (where my fiancé is from) was based on multiple factors and quite simply due to the pros outweighing the cons, compared to vice versa. It made sense, financially, due to the fact that he's lived in the states before and has a work history here, he speaks English fluently whereas I do not speak Swedish fluently. Neither of us are retirement age or close to it, so we had to find the option that worked best for us and our future children/family we want to create together. That being said, he's made it very clear he hopes to obtain dual citizenship in the future and maintain his ties to Sweden. We both have discussed the options to retire there someday, and also have that opening available for our future children should they wish to travel abroad for school, or even work, someday. Bottom line, for us - if it weren't for me and what made the most sense for our future, he had no other intentions or desires to move back to the states from Sweden. But he has to give up so much and prove quite a bit in order to come here at all. It gets frustrating.

Håll ut, y'all.

First scan of the 500 before me (June 6) shows no movement at all since 12/22 when there were 2 approvals.  I know it is early but I don't have a great feeling about this week.  I really hope I am wrong...Day 203 and counting.

If my fiancé can't come here and I have to go to live in Egypt, I would have to leave my kids behind.  I have an 18 year old and a 20 year old who live with their dad and a 12 year old who lives with his dad.  Yet another reason we applied for him to come here for a few years.  My fiancé does not even want to come to the USA.  He's doing so because it is what is best for me and for my children.  I don't think that Trump and his cronies know that in many cases the people he will be harming the most are his own American-born U.S. Citizens.  Maybe we could go live in Canada.  My grandparents were from Newfoundland.  I don't think you will be separated from your family.  I don't think I will either.  I still don't believe that USCIS wants to turn any of us down.  I think of them as individuals with hearts that see us all as individuals.  I believe in humanity!!!!  There is hope for all of us!!!

   Some day America will be great again....

Indeed.  We anticipated being together as a family this Christmas.  Instead I was on FaceTime watching them celebrate without me.  I do love the technology that makes that possible but it will never replace being there and touching...  This holiday is very tough on both of us but we talk about it and we will get through it.
