Hello everyone!

I just made my account today and am in the process of gathering the mountains of paperwork I must successfully navigate so my Japanese fiancee can come to America! I'm both excited and completely overwhelmed!

I have a lot of questions, but for now I'm just going to say hello and best of luck to everyone!

Thanks for the welcome!

I've been reviewing guides, and I think I know what I need to do. I have some questions, but they belong in another part of the forum!

This site is amazing! I was so overwhelmed before I was beginning to think taking a chance on a lawyer was my only hope. Now I am thinking I can manage it.

Well, it's been a while, and the end is now in sight!

NOA 1 done, NOA 2 done, all the documents are gathered and the appointment is on April 21. We're excited and nervous and things are crazy! To make things more interesting, I have an interview this week for a new position in my company. Fortunately the excitement levels are keeping the stress in-check!

WOW!

Good luck everyone!

Best wishes to you this week and also on the 21st!

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
