No, it's because I'm not!!!! Hey!!!!! Hows' my favorite niece??????

It plays into mastercards but not visas. They don't ask for a credit report. Credit has zero to do with it.

UCIS= =Ugluy So- Immigration Stopped

INS=I'm not sorry =I'm not smart =Idiocy never stops =Is never speedy =Ignoring ni stupid =It's never same well, you get the idea

She is the one who applies-not you. so it is her address that is important. what address did you use on other documents?? What address will beon you checking account?? Home address? AOS is a step yopu gom through with her by yoru side-a little time isn't that important. You can still get EAD and AP etc,, while waiting so why the big hurry??? Just my thoughts-why rock the boat if it already floats?

Well my friend, the worm has definatly turned for you. Soon, very very soon, your life as you knew it will end and the life you have dreamed of will begin. Until then enjoy your last minutes of free thought. Congrats and WAhhoooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!

Just that you met her-on---date(s) and intend to marry her within 90 days of her entry into the US--you can add the lovey stuff if you like. I think the VO's at the consulate get off reading the lovey stuff.

You will need a new letter of intent at the interview. -jus in case they thimk you changed your mind--uh jus in case they thimk you have one to change' At any rate, you will need 'nother un.

Wahooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!1

Kim, sounds like a "get even opportunity" sick Fei on the ex-wife-sell tickets-pay for new house-feel real warm and fuzzy!!!!!!!!!

You can get SSN before being married and you definatly can file for AOS before SSN. SSN usually takes a couple of weeks but in some cases-mine-It can take as long as 10 months. Filing for AOS is no problem. Also. most bankers will tell you that you must have SSN to open an account. NOT TRUE. You can add her to you checking account using her A number.--Been there done that.

I use Global speed from Phonecardsonsale.com. 2.4 cents per minute-no access fee and I key it to my phone so no need to dial pin number. One minute =one minute!Also, no need for local acess number,it has an 800 number with no additional charges. I also use it make long distant calls in the US-I think 5 cents per minute in US. Works good but no phone reciepts.

I thought I had been successful. I thought I had finally won an argument. I thought the worm had turned and now I was finally in charge. I stood my ground and I swear she said I can now celebrate. However, upon further review and a bit of disappointment in the area a of marital bliss, I discovered that her poor English skills gave me a false sense of confidence. What I heard was " Husband, now you celebrate" What she said is "Husband, now you celibate!" So much for standing my ground!!! Looks like it's a trip to the cheetos store for me. B)

I'm not sure she knows about Pavlov but then again ii ain't a bell she's ringin' and it ain't drooling i'm talkin' 'bout. I've decided I'm gonna stand my ground. I'm gonna set her straight about this whole Chinese holiday thing. What kind of leader would I be if I didn't 'stay the course'? Then and only then can I hope top do some serious 'flip flopping' tonight. I'm goin' in! Wish me luck-I will return victorious!!

Well, I begged my way back into her good graces. So, tonight I took her and my step daughter to an early dinner. The bill was close to a hundred bucks and I left a $20 dollar tip. NOT A GOOD IDEA. Wifey was convinced that $5 dollars for a tip was plenty. She said in her best smartass voice "Oh, I see, now husband very rich man". I tried to explain to her about good service and tipping 20% etc. She didn't get it at all but she then said "Now I know husband rich man maybe I go shopping soon". I kept my mouth shut for a change. It was very cold last night and tonight I'm hoping for a warm front. Gheeeezzzzzzzzzzzzz

I'm in the process of coming up with a plan-any plan. Do remeber that she don't scare me-she don't scare me-Like hell she don't. Carl, I know about the cleaver-she has one tOo and she knows how to use it. She recently watched a Chinese movie that reproduced the Bobbit thing. last thing she said before she went to bed (alone) was "Ka-chop". Anyone know what that means in Chinese?? Newbies--BE AFRAID-BE VERY AFRAID!!

Robert, yes we have fireworks but would you really want me to get fireworks )you know those dangerous things that go boom) after saying all those things to wifey?? I wouldn't need to flagellate myself--hell she'd blow me all to hell and back before I had the chance. Of course all those things I said are true-look at my avatar-does that look like the face of a lier?? Yes, newbies take notes on what not to do. I was warned, I didn't listen-I was WRONG!!!!!!!!

Me thinks this isn't going well. She refused to go shopping (NEVER EVER thought I'd see that happen). I haven't got a clue what size she wears---probably not XXL. I did get some red Chinese paper lanterns hung up but she said upside down is bad luck. She keeps telling me she refuses to clean the house tommorrow. "no problem" I told her, "I t wasn't that clean today anyway"--BIG Mistake. How was I supposed to know she didn't want to clean because she is afraid she will sweep away the good luck?? She has been trying to call China for two hours and keeps getting a busy signal from the calling card. Should this ever happen to you, the correct response is NOT "maybe nobody likes you enough to talk to you" Finaly, she makes a huge dinner and asked me how I likey "It's ok I guess but you have made better" Is definatley a wrong response. Gheezzzzz if I'd a know she was gonna do all that I wouldn't have snuck those three Big Macs. Sooo, no new clothes for the new years-no clean house for wifey-no decorations-no great feast-and damned sure no good time for me tonight. Still yet more lessons in cultural diversity learned the hard way ny Trigg

Hey ya'll, check out our newest member. She posted in the thread 'live and in person-Jenny' in the culture and language forum. It is our very own 'Jenny' posting under her English name Jany. Cool stuff.

Wahoooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Ok, so let me get this straight. NEVER EVER believe her. Always know what she really means. Get ready to get plucked without getting kissed or even a reach around. And, finnaly, drive to Alabama for fireworks. One question. Why alabama fireworks??? I live 1/2 mile from a fireworks stand. Are TN fireworks no good?? Or is it the roundtrip to Alabama that gets me out of trouble.

New clothes-got it. But, she says -"no need new clothse, have good old clothes. Now not China" then she rambles on and on about how we aren't in China and don't need to celebrate Chinese holidays. Then she makes me hang those red paper lanterns all over the house. Then she says "Husband, you no need spend money for me things". Then she talks for what seems to be hours (maybe 5 minutes) on the subject of China and New years customs. Then she says " We no do nothing for new Years is Ok, no need spend money" THen Then Then. Why do I get the feeling there is no correct way to handle this holiday thing?? Am I being set up??? Oh my wise brethren please to give stupid old man survival tips.

Yea, that's what I meant- i think

I'm speaking for K1--once you apply for AOS- I-465, you needn't worry about K1 visa date. I'm pretty sure K3 is the same.

We didn't miss a thing. A couple old dogs like us have hunted before. We got the groceries BEFORE she got her. Even stocked up on geritol.
