USA here we come!!! Yipppeeeeeeee!
I have posted on the Marriage forum, but just wanted to let you know that today we received an e-mail from the London Consular to say that my Hubby's waiver has been APPROVED - meaning he can now have a green card!!!!!! We are now free to live together as a family in the USA and finally become REAL ex-pats and not just wannabe's.... from now on I can post questions that begin with "WHEN we move to the US...." and not "IF we move to the US"... It's nice to be in control again :PARTY:
Thanks to everyone who advised us and supported us through the last 9 months xx

Oh that's so *****ing amazing!!! I am so happy for you! I knew you'd get it. I actually have a tear in my eye! You must be so flipping relieved. I really understand how you must be feeling right now. BIG HUGS! Congrats to you! Now we really need to organize a huge party for all of us recent immigrants.
Now go out and have a jolly good curry and a drink and celebrate. No more waiting!
See? My Xena impression worked!

LOL!!!
I remember - sort of
all that time ago! Well... we got there in the end 
You must have been living over there for more than 2 months now right? Hopefully this will be our last ever trip to London Embassy to collect the visa, now that we're approved, legal and free to be.

Good luck with filing for AOS... and judging by your track record, you'll breeze through

Think the main problem is too much time on my hands and that will be better once I have a job. A couple of things seem to look promising at the moment, but its definitely a stagnant market in this area, even for temping. Once I'm working we'll file for AOS..... we're trying to take one step at a time!
