Hi All,

Usual thing, been stalking the forums for a while and finally decided I should probably come out from behind this bush and say "hello"...

"Hello"

Quick bit about my situation I guess: I'm English and met a USC whilst she was (at the time she had lived there for 8 years) living in Canada - I LOVE Canada, at least the bit I went to anyway. We first met online via a mutual friend in May 2011, flew to Canada to meet her in July 2011, stayed for 5 weeks, returned to UK for 4 weeks and flew back to Canada in September where I'd planned to stay for around 4-5 months. Unfortunately due to an error by her then employer they refused her next work permit and she (we) ended up moving to the U.S. where I was granted a 90 day visit. Left the U.S. after 88 days in January and we both flew back to the UK for 4 months. Our plan was to then tour Europe for a bit but as is often the case, shit happens and we had to cut our trip short. We then flew back to the U.S. together.

We are now on our journey for immigration.

As such I'll be around in the USA forums where I've seen so many great people and look forward to being a part of this forum.

So there's my story.

Thanks to everyone.
