  1. My wife told me after our biometrics trip to New Orleans for the green card that if we get a notice in the mail saying our case is transferred to California, it's usually a sign that we will not be asked for an interview. :blink:

    Is that true? :blink:

    Because she was hopping up and down today because we got a notice saying exactly that. B)

  2. It's all do to her concept of "Face" in one aspect or another. I notice Chinese women tend to be very competitive about there husbands like were a nice car or something. Always looking to see if her friend has a nicer car which generally turns into possessiveness and trying to out brag each other always concerned with what the other has and what the other thinks of there situation. It's generally one big sticky mess I try not to think about because it gives me a headache. Just accept it for what it is and forget about it.

     

    God help the woman that looks even remotely interested in me or asks too many questions, they may loose an arm. Ok Ting is too cute for that but they will get an Tinkerbelle type hurmph! and be totally ignored in the future. In general she is very concerned about what others think, I¡¯m trying to break her of this habit but I feel it will be a long road.

    <_< B)

  3. Go to the Ikea building across the street from the waterfall at the end of the park. Its a large blue store front. There is 1 RMB soft serve ice cream there. Very good! and just past the Ikea building on the left as your facing it about 50 yards down then turn right and you will see a pond like area with a gazebo in it. This area is great for local foods and is very cheap.

     

    At the park under the water fall are more traditional chain stores including a star bucks and a place where you can get more western food cafe style including lasagna.

  4. Hope you like it here, sorry I was not able to talk to you when you called me but at least you got ahold of Ting.

    I was in the middle of arresting someone <_< Had cuffs in one hand and my cell in the other and my knee on his neck :lol:

    So the timing was a bit off LOL

  5. OK July 30th we sent all our green card papers out, I-485, 131, 765 etc...

    Our FedEx Tracking number said it was delivered on the 2nd of Aug. Aug 3rd they had it in there hot little hands according to USCIS's paper work.

    On the 11th we got the USCIS receipts back in the mail and now were waiting for the Biometrics appointment.

    The check cleared on the 11th too.

     

    Hope this helps anyone tracking time frames. B)

    Did you check the box on the forms requesting expedited processing so she can get her green card faster? :P

     

    I'm here for you Rob. :roller:

    <_< wITH FRIENDS LIKE YOU.... :P

  7. This is a very sifnificant change.Thank you very much for the heads up, USCONGUZ.

     

     

     

    tsap... There alive... don't move to fast ya might spook'em.

    I'll ask'em a question 1st, if they don't pull up and run then everyone else chime in

     

    Umm Mr.USCONGUZ or Ms.USCONGUZ as the case may be

     

    Is there any discussions or plans to get the K-1 and K-3's on the same program? If so is there a time frame we can start looking foward too?

     

    One other thing we realy would like to see more comments/participation from you guys on CFL even in say an

    unofficial capacity.

  8. I sense this is a deeper issue than just evidence for the interview. It's value as evidence would not be of great significance but it does have value. The deeper issue is her not taking into consideration of how much it means to him. There is also the issue of once living in America People do think a married person, particularly a woman, is hiding the fact they are married if they don't wear a wedding ring. Men are also more likely to hit on her thinking she is single. Kind of like wearing your green hat. I still maintain that if it makes him happy it is a small thing for her to do for him.

     

    You keep mentioning "green hat", what is that exactly?

    Never heard that expression.

  9. Ok I have been having a few disagreements recently with my Ting because of disinformation from others so I am here to put this one to rest.

     

    There is "NO" 3 month drop dead on applying for a green card.

    Some people wait as long as 9 months before applying for a green card.

     

    You see cash for me, thanks to immigration, is VERY tight at the moment. Ting will also not be working for a LONG time, instead she will be attending college.

    So there is no real hurry to get the green card until the finances are a bit better.

     

    But people are scaring the hell out of her with this disinformation and causing disharmony where there should be none.

     

    So once and for all "There is "NO" 3 month drop dead on applying for a green card" :lol:

     

    Thank you and spread the word :lol: :lol:

  10. You are apart of her family now, there is no her family, your family. She is doing normal thing for a parent.

     

    I think that is what bothers me.

    I want it to be our family, our children, etc.

    However, when it becomes she giving her property to her daughter, then my ideal breaks down.

     

    Suddenly, it is her daughter, and my children.

    It creates a distance between me and her daughter and she and my children (I try to avoid her/my but I need it in this context for clarity).

     

    She agrees I should give a house to my 2 children as well, but that would leave us with nothing.

     

    Perhaps it is expectation.

    If I gave a house to my children, they would feel free to sell it, and use the money as they saw fit.

    My wife thinks we can continue to live in the apt. after she gives it away, until we die.

     

    Still thinking.. still not comfortable

    Your still thinking like an American, you will no have "NOTHING".

    Your children will take care of you as you get older, it's the Chinese way.

  11. Hmmm My Ting must be an exception to the rule. I asked her about finding other Chinese to talk with here and she looked at me like I was nuts. I think her reply was something like "You crazy?" "I am so glad to finally have my privacy and I can't stand the social complications associated with Chinese people" :)

    And I said "Ohhhh Kaaaaayyy" :lol:

    She said she much prefers it here compared to China but does miss her family but not the complex social stuff. :lol:

    She tried to explain this to some people in China before and they went as far as calling her a traitor :lol:

    One guy on QQ actually got VERY crude and nasty with her. Never seen her let someone have it like that before. It was soooo cool to see my lil Ting Ting rip some guys head off on the net :lol: I was so proud
