hi to all!!! just a quick update-- my chunliu is at the consulate as i type this note- she arrived early this morning-- we have talked and she is ready-- sososososo ready for our visa--- keep the faith!!! let's see the pink--- I'll post any update as I am able!!!!!!!!

GREAT NEWS!!! MY WIFE AND I HAVE OUR CR1 INTERVIEW SET FOR 11-08-07 @ 7:15 AM----!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE K-3 STILL HAS NOT BEEN RESCHEDULED-- NO NEED!!!! THINK PINK-- OR RED-- THINK VISA!!!!!!!!!!!

it seems we have drifted off the topic-- for some unknown reason we have a voice against our chinese SO'S-- his views --opinions--ideas- do not apply to us-- we hold nothing against them but find the remarks irrelevant- why dispute something when you are not apart of it--this site is to help each of us- to understand the different visa interviews-blue sheets-overcome-- -- WHEN IN ROME--------

Hi to all, I wanted to speak up for our loved ones waiting for the visa approval- when asked at the interview are you a member of the ccp?what else but the truth should they speak, they have no knowledge of wrongdoing or contempt of our laws they just want to be with us-when i read this last post i felt upset because somehow we are shifting blame - my wife was told by her boss I NEED YOU TO JOIN- TODAY- it was for his career advancement- she had no idea that oneday she would marry an american- nor did she care- she needed a job- maybe you should live a day of the life of a woman in china- she left that party back in october of 2005 long before any mention of me or a visa- she was used by her boss- and for no gain for herself other than a job and 2000 rmb per month- try to live on that- if you want to cast stones- live it first---GOD BLESS them and each of us waiting for our loved ones!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, I went back and re-read the entire thread again. I grant you that no one specifically used the actual word "forced" but if you re-read the entire thread, I think honestly you have to admit the inference from several posts/posters was that the government somehow forces everyone to join the CCP if they wanted any kind of job. Bottom line is that only 5% of the populous are currently members of the CCP. If any of your spouses/SO were or are lucky enough to be a member of the CCP, it only helps their lives in China. GUZ has nothing to do with a Chinese person's life when in China. Only when the Chinese person wants to immigrate to the US does GUZ become an issue. Again, I'm going to submit that at the time any one is offered a CCP membership, they eagerly embrace the offer, rather than some on here have made it sound, as if people timidly and apprehensively accept the membership with fear and trepidation. Dave wrote: Dave, I appreciate your comments. I agree with you that they should be able to take a job without having to worry about the visa process. The problem is, I think in all circumstances, the visa applicants obtain their jobs long before they applied for a US immigration visa. At the time of their membership to the CCP, I believe they sincerely wanted it. It's only much later that their CCP membership is considered a deficit for US immigration visa processing. This is why I think it's disingenuous to claim that they were forced to accept the CCP membership, because at the time they accepted CCP membership, they were quite eager to accept it. Likewise, I appreciate your comments over anti-China sentiments. I don't like unnecessary anti-Chinese sentiments, but I'm all for criticism of the Chinese government when it's valid. I have a lot of criticism for China myself. But on this issue, I think it's just disingenuous for people to blame this issue on the CCP. A Chinese person can only benefit from being in the CCP in China. There is no loss. Only as it relates to US immigration matters will a CCP membership be suddenly considered a liability. I will tell you this. I know people who have turned down CCP membership because they knew they would eventually emigrate to the US. For those people, I don't think they're disingenuous. I applaud their integrity. For the rest who benefited before they knew they'd emigrate by joining the CCP and then complain afterwards only when they learn it affects their chances of obtaining an immigration visa, that is disingenuous. In the end, Carl has already said that almost everyone--if not all--eventually overcome BLUE due to CCP membership. So it's not a huge problem, just a little delay before the eventual visa is issued.

i wish it was that simple-- the u.s. wants everyone reviewed- my wife was a human resource manager-- how ironic- she was helping people- now, that is used against her-- she was never in the military or anything to do with the ccp- just was told to join or no job,,

hi to all!!! we are in need of answers!!!!! my wife and I have been to Guangzhou twice -- each time we get a blue sheet because my wife had to be a member of the cp for her job-- we have done all they asked it has been 5 more months and still no answers!! this is hurting her so so bad- I am not able to help- the senator has emailed and called-- still no movement-- what do we do???? lost in the usa without my wife!!!!!!!
