IluvmyLi

Thx again for all the help. I hope someday I'll have something to contribute to the board. But until that time I'll keep asking away. haha. I mentioned the 3 copies because I want the orginals in a packet and then one set of copies for me, one for the SO, and one for the heck of it. David I like the picture taped to sheet of paper with notes attached. Thx

My beautiful Li is the most beautiful woman in the World and she even agrees with me. lol

thx cosmiclobster. That gives me an idea of where to begin. I assume an office supply store would have these plastic folders.

Hello all. I hope this isn't one of those stupid questions. lol I read on here somewhere that we should make at least 3 copies of everything and to use plastic see through folders which will be put in a large plastic type of bag. When copying airline tickets and stubs, can I just lay them out and copy as many as will go on one piece of copy paper? Also where would be the best place to buy these special plastic folders? And what type of large plastic so called bag would all these folders go into? I also would like to say it's frustrating seeing how some countries seem to be approved in just a few months. And others such as China, sit forever. I just started the process so please understand I'm not complaining. At least not yet. haha. I just want to be touched.

nope. cant find link to 001.

Thanks all. Such a wealth of information on this board. What is the 001 site some of you talk about?

Can someone please post the steps and normal times between these steps? Such as what NOA1 and NOA2 are. And what and when the P2,P3,P4. I know from what David said earlier on another post that the P3 is sent to the SO and she has to fill out 3 forms. I really dont need to know the complete contents of the kitchen sink, but just a brief run down of the process. Thanks much.

what does DOS stand for? tia

Good luck. I hope all is well for you and your SO

Can someone please direct me on how to change my profile name? Or is it too late?

thanks david and frank. I understand how you may have your own way of communication. I think this is what makes this such a special experience. To fall in love with someone and not have the ability to communicate without the use of electronic handhelds and plenty of body language. Some people don't understand how this is possible. It's all about love.

cosmiclobster That is funny. I have a wild imagination and anything that can go wrong, usually does with me. If the SO doesn't speak very good English, does that raise a red flag?

Bill I just put in my order tonight for the $399 deal. Your right about it seems like an ok deal. Good luck.

You people on here are great! I like browsing the posts everyday. It helps reading about everyone's experiences when I'm feeling down or lonley for my Li. I miss her badly and sometimes I think I'm going crazy. haha. She gets upset with me if I worry too much. She wants me to be stronger. I decided to order the Yishen 888 online for $329. Seems like a fair price. I hope I am able to input english and see pinyin on the screen and not just chinese characters. That will make it easier for me to learn some Chinese I think. As for the cheetos, I will have to do some more research to figure out what's up with that. haha

Jim Julian I am from Denver, CO. I think she speaks Cantonese and not Mandarine. Pease excuse my spelling. haha. Where is the spell check?

Cheetos? Hmmmm I seem to remember a post about the dicussion between cheetos and doritos. haha

Randy you nailed every question. Thanks everyone for your help. This board is excellent!

Hello everyone. I sent out our I-129F on Oct 8th. I am already a nervous wreck. So worried that something may go wrong. I know this is the beginning of a long road and anything can happen, but I will try to relax and stay positive. My SO hates it when I worry or think too much. lol. I met my beautiful Chinese fiance Oct 04' online. We chatted for one year and fell more in love with every passing day. I went to see my Li Sept 14th and returned Oct 3. Her English isn't the best and I am also trying to learn Chinese. But it is such a difficult languange. I would like to ask the board if anyone has a suggestion on user friendly translation software for the computer. And also possibly any recommendations on the hand held type also. I also read somewhere on the board about some of you getting CCTV through sattelite. Who provides those channels in the USA? Thanks to everyone on this board for making this the place to go for encouragement and much needed advice. I will post my timeline as soon as I learn how and receive my case number. Todd
