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."

Thanks Epiphany for sharing your story. I was contemplating on whether to fly back for the interview with the possibility of a A.R. and returning to the US without my wife and stepdaughter or waiting for approval and returning to P.I. to bring them back to the states. You've made up my mind ! It's much more important to be there for her interview even if I do have to fly home without them !

I can't tell y'all how much I want to be there with my Fiancee during the interview stage. It's just not possible as much as I want. It takes almost every last cent I have to keep supporting us and this process. I wish I were able to currently make more money, but I'm doing the best I can. I'm hoping to find a better job once this is all done, so that I can finally quit working 7 days a week on two jobs. I miss her and do wish I could sit with her as she's interviewed. :(

I really wouldn't sweat not being with her at the interview too much. If you have both done your research and have her prepped for the interview and the potential questions that may arise, then she should do fine. With only her there, only half the questions to be "answered" and half the chance of screwing-up.
