I have not stopped crying! I’m afraid too. And as strong as a woman as I considered myself to be I’m shattered. I have lots to worry about. Atti had a deportation about 20 yrs ago. I don’t know how this will pan out. I just sent him a lengthy letter even though he is asleep right now. I just feel helpless to have our relationship be at the mercy of someone else’s interpretation of it. Sorry to be a doommer right now but this news of John has shattered me in my core.

@Kari & Atti I wish you guys the best on your interview and I hope you have a positive outcome. We are all on this journey together and I think it's safe to say we have all shed tears and it's ok to let them fall it shows we all have a heart filled with love even if the officers don't see it.

Absolutely! It’s hard not to be attached to the outcome of all of us who have chosen to share this journey here on VJ. I wish we can all have our happy ever after with our chosen partners. It’s just sad to feel penalized or scrutinized because we chose love on the other side of “our world” though. I wish things were much simpler for us. It is what it is. We are strong united though! Thanks for your support and encouragement!

@John & Rose

 

My stomach is in knots. I really, really hope this is some kind of mix-up. 

 

@Kari & Atti 

 

Try not to worry sweetie!  All you can do is see it through and see what happens. I know it's impossible but please do try not to stress. We are with you, we are all cheering for you.

 

@KBA and @LydiaP   Words don't suffice.  I'm just holding onto hope for you both.

The refusal was because I failed to disclose information on the petition.  It was an expunged arrest from 1990 that I forgot about.  It is my fault.  I didn't read that expunged arrests mattered when I filed.  I was not convicted.  It was for battery.

 

Now we need to see if another K-1 or CR-1 is the better route.  I feel like an a$$....

Oh my! Thank you so much, so much! I’m just an emotional ball right now but I’m holding on! I have sent Atti the longest letter ever even though he’s sound asleep. My baby is so peaceful while I’m in turnmoil lol 😂 that’s why he is my better half 😍

This is a terrible set-back and I'm so, so sorry.

I can't even begin to imagine how you feel John.
I am so sorry. I wish they found this earlier so it could have saved you the worries and you could have been months into a new application!
But you keep the faith with Rose! Hoping everything works out for you guys

Ohhh wow! But that was what you why you though your NOA2 took so long! 

In my line of work I’m a costumed to see this pop out and even if you think expunged means erased it is not. I know that’s not what you want to hear but full disclosure is always better. Atti and I are dealing with a similar situation. His was an overstay (2 months) with probably forged greencard (scam by a Canadian attorney) and a refusal of entry about 20 years ago. I’m still hoping for the best though. That’s all I can do. He was young and naive... still naive ... that has not changed. What I’m trying to say is that we are all here on the same boat and for whatever is worth you have us. We love you and I know I speak for many here! Hang strong brother!

I will refile the K-1 with ALL of the information this time.  I screwed up so I will take the heat.  I feel bad for Rose and the kids.  Hopefully the K-1 will be quicker this time.

With all the fuss I wrote my baby the following (not even embarrassed to share which I normally am): 

Honey, John and Rose from the visa forum have been denied their visa. I’m in tears right now. There is really no reason for these two people who clearly love each other get denied if their happiness. I know you are sleeping right now, but I’m just so sad and terrified that something like that can happen to us. I know you are always so optimistic and that’s why I love you so much because you are the better one of us. You are always able to see brightness when I see  darkness. I wish I can hold your hand now and know that you are with me and know that we won’t be apart for long. This whole time I have tried my best to be objective, calm and collected and I know I have lost it here and there and I want to say I’m sorry for giving you a hard time about our future housing situation and the apartment in Budapest. I hope you understand that I have a million things on my plate. The kids (not always easy), work and it’s ups and downs and the late hours, my grandma’s passing away, the wedding planning and the cost, the three dogs, all the financial aspect of the wait for your visa, plus all the expenses you are having because of the delay. I appreciate all the hard work you do to endure the long hours with your clients in order to make an extra buck for our future expenses, the long hours after your work day you have to endure daily, just to see me on FaceTime until I’m done with my work day, which is usually late because I am a workaholic :(, the time you take to be with me during my car ride home daily, and all the love an d consideration you have for me through all of this. I know we have had our struggles but I just wanted you to know tonight that I am very grateful for all you do to keep this relationship going regardless of the distance that lies between us. I know the sacrifices you are making to be with me and even though I don’t say it often, I am aware of them and I am also very thankful that you chose to be the man that you are toward me. My kids love you because they see the good man that you are and my parents love you for that too. They are excited waiting to hear the good news of your arrival and please know that you are leaving mom behind (shortly, because we will bring her with us) but you are gaining a huge family that is very fond of you. Derek is counting the days until you get here and he wishes you are here for his graduation from pre-k. He has already a plan to go with me to the airport and he will offer you his house with his magnificent internet so you would be able to work with your clients. So let him down slowly please. He keeps on making bets with me and his parents to see who will you choose; to live with Tia Karina or his house! 😂😂😂 he loves you so much! We love you so much Atti and we are waiting for you to come home baby ok... don’t forget that please!
