Thank you Jeraly, I cannot stand it!! now it is January 25th. Almost 6 months. I hate it so much. This is insane, but all I can do right now is to wait.

consider it? you think I haven't?

he'd love to live here... he just doesn't want to leave the States before his son (who's currently 16 and a half) finishes high school, and I'm really behind that; I'd think less of him if he was happy to just walk away

though even he was saying last night: what if his son decides to join the military, or goes away for uni, or whatever, and in a year and a half he's gone? makes this a LOT of hassle for very little payoff... though I don't think there's an alternative

Well it sucks but at least it is for the right reasons. Besides - you might find that you like it there and it is a nice experience for a bit - you always have the option to move back - that is what we are looking at potentially but we are just keeping our options open Makes for an exciting life Besides - if you stay long enough you can at least have an easier route into the country if you decide to move again or something

[Jeraly 4]

Keep the faith - you *will* get there and just think how happy you will be then!! It is hard now but as soon as you get your NOA2 things just move a lot quicker... ok - the move from CSC to NVC takes a while but even a month is nothing compared to the 5-6 month wait for NOA2

OK, I don't know WHY this should be the last straw, but ...

Bah. That just sucks. I'm so sorry to hear that. It always strikes me as so retarded that here we are in the 21st century and our bureaucracies are still operating in the 19th century. Completely unacceptable.

Hey July Filer Friends, havent posted in a while as I have 'gone dark' in between the medical and interview - I think just nerves and busy and more nerves! but now I can report that Matthew had his interview in London at 9AM this morning, he was our by 10:10AM with a very happy APPROVAL!!!!! :dance: We are so excited and in mad wedding planning mode! He arrives here on Jan 29th to stay for good.....somebody pinch me! the wedding is Feb 16th and then we are honeymooning for 4 days in Las Vegas (where we met a year ago while waiting for a taxi outside the same hotel!) We thought it would be fun to return to the seen of the crime!!! we plan on doing something more later like hawaii or florida keys, but there is so much going on right now!

I just wanted to say to everyone that there is a light at the end of the tunnel! chins up, head high, faith in tact! its worth waiting for and it WILL happen. :thumbs:

Julez....no dress yet?? girl.....4 weeks to go!!!! what can we do to help??

Debz - STOP STRESSING. it was cake and matthew said they barely glanced at the affadavit of support. you will be fine hon.

Jeraly - I just realized your wedding is on a monday??!! any significance to that?? did I miss that somewhere

STP - my heart broke reading your story, hang in there. take it one step at a time and check it off your list. the hurdles suck, but at least when there done they are done and you can move forward again (however slowly it may feel)
