It's so good to have him here! Exactly 7 1/2 months from filing. Hardest part was the carta blanca which took 2 months. He was so excited when he received it on Wednesday, that rather than wait to get on a Cancun flight with a connection to JFK, he caught the first thing smoking which happened to be a flight to Miami on Thursday. He had no problems there and even made some friends in the airport. Wish he could have gotten the EAD at JFK, but we'll deal with it. Now on to the AOS process...

Best to those still waiting. To those with loved ones in Cuba, it may not take as long for you to get the carta blanca. My fiance had to do paperwork in 2 viviendas because he wasn't living at the address on his carnet. Hope to see you all soon on the other side of VJ.

Wow!! I am so happy for you. I hope you two enjoy your new life together. I can understand why he wanted to get to you as soon as possible since the carta blanca took so long.

My fiance is still waiting for his carta blanca. When he gets it he will be flying out on Mexicana through Cancun to JFK so that I can fly with him. Well we hope to be together soon as you two are now.

Best wishes and we will see you on the AOS side of VJ.
