Personal Question...

[WendyJunior 0]

How long did you know your boyfriend/girlfriend before you became engaged? How long was your engagement? My fiance propossed to me in February of this year after dating for a long time. How many visits did you take to Jamaica in between times? I try to visit every 2-3 months, but this has been the longest we've gone ...it will be a little over 5 months when I get there in September.

When Aaron and I were first engaged, we had known each other for 6 months. I try to go back as often as I can, last year I went back about 4-5 times, this year I have only been back twice because I knew we should have our interview this year and I would need the money for our plane tickets.

Good luck to you and your honey

We got "engaged" almost a year after we met (January)......then we filed a few months later (June), we had our interview in December and he was here in January.

I made four trips in 17 months.....the longest we went not seeing each other was January to December.....that was because we decided to file in June and didn't know how soon we would get our interview date. I had very limited vacation time and really couldn't chance booking a trip and having to go back shortly after for the interview.

We got engaged 4 yrs after we met. Going to JA for me was hard due to lack of funds and time, but I was able take a few trips nonetheless.

We started dating Dec. 2001 and got engaged in May 2004. We got our visa and married in September 2005. Altogether I went to JA 8 times for a total of about 13 months of actual time in Jamaica.

Hi Wendyjr;

Mike was introduced to me by my brother's ex-wife in March this year. I went to JA to meet him in April and it was a love connection. We have spoken every day since. I am planning to go back to see him in October for seven wonderful days. We were planning to get married on 10/14 and start the visa journey, but a visa petition that was filed for him back in 2000 by his father, has become current, and his visa is now being processed. Hopefully, if things go the way I have seen on here for the IR-1 visa process. We will be together permanently within 6-8 months. I am so happy.

Hi Wendy! All the best with your journey!!

We were engaged after 2 and 1/2 years of meeting. We got married after 8 1/2 years of being together. When we filled out the I-130 the journey took nine months. So after 9 1/2 years we are finally together. I visited Jamaica 15 times. We met when we were young thats why we waited a long time. He was 15 and I was 19. We met through a college exchange program. I taught his high school band. I would go down with school twice a year for four years and then came down by myself 7 more times.

My fiance and I met online last year. We had been chatting/talking for almost 3 months when I went to meet him. He proposed to me when I was there the first time. We filed our I29F in January of this year and I went back to see him in March. We were approved on August 14. Now we wait for the visa.

(2 trips and 3 months before engagement.)
