Just tell it like it is. Tell them you have no questions but wanted to come to ACH to register the fact that you've come this long way from the US to be with your SO at her time of interview to offer her moral support.

Costco has the lowest price: $4.99 for 2 passport photos. I make them myself now. And a good ink-jet printer with HIGH quality glossy photo paper will suffice. For our AOS submission, we used the photos I shot at home and printed at home. They worked fine. No problems. We passed our interview last month and my wife has her Green Card now. So I know it can work if done correctly. Make sure the photo paper is the HIGH quality (thick stock) kind.

That is frightening when lawyers for the plaintiff all suggest one acquiesce rather than fight. That means the law itself needs changing.

Crossing my fingers and wishing you lots of luck!

Thank you!...Yes, it seems like an eternity since me, you and a few others were all here waiting for our P3's and P4's!...hehehe... Damn Signal, your timeline is hella fast! Even faster than Dnoblett (Dan). I never realized how fast your K1 went through. I sent out my K-1 app 7/21/07 and my wife had her interview on 2/28/07. Congrats to your wife on her Welcome letter. It certainly has been a very smooth and speedy process for you guys!

Roger, if you set up a crab or lobster shack in Bo'Ao, I'll definitely come for lunch sometimes.

Happy happy news! Always great to read about another PINK notice. Congrats!

I see. That's too bad. Jim_J, I stand corrected.

Joanne posted a link to an interview with Ang Lee in an earlier post in this thread. http://candleforlove.com/forums/index.php?...st&p=339857 Ang Lee says it's right around 10 minutes. Some journalist started saying 15-17 minutes were censored and everyone else starting quoting that number. It's actually 10 minutes or less that was cut, according to Ang Lee.

Make very sure you do get married within 90 days. There is no gray area about the marriage. That must take place within 90 days. The actual filing of AOS does have a certain about of gray area grace period. We filed a few days past 120 days and we were approved 10/30. From time of submission to time the GC was received, it was just a little under 120 days. Good luck.

OMG, Mallika Sherawat, was so hot in that movie! Freaking HOT!

I understand fully Ron. It took over a month before my wife's case number made it into the online system. In fact, it was one day after her biometrics appointment when her MSC number was finally online. Has your wife done her biometrics yet Ron?

All our lives--my family--heavily revolve around silicon valley high tech. We lost a shit load of money during the dot com bust. My mom doesn't want that to happen again. This time, she's only investing in mutual funds within China. They also just purchased an apartment outside of Shanghai. I don't recall the name exactly but I believe it's the same city as where Feather's wife is originally from. Kunshan or something like that. I think Shanghai Tony would probably be the guy to ask about specific stock picks for the Chinese market.

Not quite. GDP/GNP growth rate is not equivalent to inflation rate. While China has been expanding it's GDP at over 10% yearly, inflation has been nowhere near 10%. In the past 10 years, the inflation rate of China hasn't ever reached 6.5% until now, let alone anywhere near 10%. But chrisnhong's general thesis is sound. Inflation is going up quicker than the interest rate paid to consumers by the banks, and so one is becoming poorer by putting one's money solely in bank savings/cd accounts. But many people are heavily invested in the stock market now and they've making a killing. Until the bubble bursts, China is minting new millionaires by the day. My mom has asked that my dad wire more funds to her in China to be more fully invested in China. There is indeed high risk but the rewards are phenomenal.

Too funny.
