C'est toujours cool de savoir qu'on a des compatriotes ici!
Ma femme (USC) et moi commençons les procédures pour un K3 cette semaine.

Bon courage Marie, ca va se debloquer. Je ne sais pas quelle est la prochaine
etape pour vous maintenant? Faut prendre son mal en patience. Si il a decrocher
un boulot d enfer a NY, il aura peut etre les moeyns de venir de voir en week
end prolonger plus souvent.
Emails, phone, web cam devrait t aider a patienter, comme nous tous ici ont du
le faire un jour.

Ciao,

Patrick ( France now Chicago)

...Hyper, my dear, don't be confused...they're speaking French I can understand parts of it, and don't worry...everyone's being nice

Clare & Steven

Essantale, my fiance applied for the I601 in November...the processing office at Dorval acknowledged receipt on Jan 7th, check cashed on Jan 8th. The other day I called them to see where we were. Originally we were told that the processing would be done last week and we'd have an answer. Much to my dismay, the woman (who happened to be working on our case) said it would be a couple more months! I whined and almost cried..since it's been over a year since we applied for the K-1. She did say she'd try to get to it as soon as she could, but there is only 2 or 3 people working on 601's and it was 3 weeks since she was able to work on any. She said he should be getting a letter from her office in a few weeks, confirming receipt of the case file...and then after that, the final letter (rfe, approval or denial). I said....Nooooo, not the last one!! She laughed and said, ok ok, relax, I'll try to get to it as soon as I can.

I've visited Steven many times since we met and he's been here twice...staying for almost 3 months this past summer. Now that they know he's applied for the I601, it doesn't look like they're going to renew his visitors visa so we have no choice but to wait for their answer.
I haven't seen him since November and it doesn't look like I'll be going again for another month. I miss him terribly and my heart goes out to you. I know exactly how you feel. I'm so sorry you're going through all of this, but if your love is strong and you have the patience of a saint....you will get through this. Be strong.

Hugs, Clare

PS: get that waiver filed asap!!

Hypertweeky

Hypertweeky

Hypertweeky

katie4998

No, we just make fun of that crazy "brilliant idea" that some people had. Hehehehe

And yes, the seperation is horrid. My hubby is *almost* home finally, but has been gone over 5 months. It's awful.

I've got a new theory that everyone who processes marraige-based Visas needs to spend about 6 months seperated from their loved ones. Maybe then compassion will make them work faster. (Hey, a girl can dream, right? )

Hypertweeky

I love your Theory!!, Let's give them their own medicine!

It was the Italian at the end that got me

French, German, Latin, Irish, Welsh and small amounts of other lanuguages I can digest.

However, my Spanish is HOPELESS.

I am learning........
