I went this morning to my I-751 interview with my wife to remove conditions on my residence, we got there and as soon as we cleared security an officer said come on in you're my next appointment, we told him we had to wait for our lawyer once she came we headed to his office, he asked to swear and give him DL for both of us and my green card and passport, he then started checking off the questions in the form have you been deported, has anybody been paid.... then he said everything looks fine i just need the taxes for 09 and a recent bank statement and an explanation why we didnt have a joint lease, we handed what he was lookin for and explained to him that my got the place before we got married so he said it's ok and chatted with me a bit in french and told me about his years lived in france and belgium, he said you're good people and i don't want your lawyer to get mad at me and stamped a big APPROVED on the form and told him have a lucky life together, it was a real cool experience and the whole interview didnt last longer than 15mins, the officers in norfolk office are great not like the old morans in vermont!!

The wait would be unbearable but it'll be worth it. It strengthens the love, it attaches you even more to each other, it shows how your man would do whatever it takes to be with you, that he will never give up on you because he LOVES you!! All the waits, stresses, tears, heartaches, all the miserable feelings you feel along the way will be paid off once you get what you've been hoping for...oh and WITHOUT PRAYERS? will be like trying to start a fire with water, JUST WON'T WORK!

Congratulations ! This is great news !!

I note you've not filled out yer timeline - Would you take this opportunity, since you were APPROVED, to celebrate by filling out yer timeline?

Also - it helps other ppl to know exactly what city the USCIS office was in. You could reference that in many places in your profile and timeline.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

Whoa Nelly ! Want NVC Info? see http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process

Congratulations on your approval ! We All Applaud your accomplishment with Most Wonderful Kissies !
