My Name is Chuck, aka kilopee,

And I'm here for the first time.

I wanted to say Hello to everyone and introduce myself.

I am just getting started with the K-1 process to get the Fiance' Visa for my sweet Jian Ling living in Nanning, China. I have read some of your posts and have found lots of good info here. I'm sure I will be able to draw from your experiences.

The Journey Begins...

Welcome to VJ!!!

Good luck for a speedy K-1 process. There certainly is a wealth of information available here in the "Guides" and "Visa FAQ" sections, as well as from the many experienced VJ members who have been through it all already.

Best wishes to you both!!!

The more you love, the more you lose a part of yourself, yet you don't become less of who you are;

you end up being complete with your loved ones."
