I'm very proud to announce America's newest United States Citizen. Sakha passed her US Citizenship Exam this morning, April 30th 2012, and was sworn in a few hours later around 12:30pm. http://discoverseattle.net/forums/Smileys/akyhne/smiley.gif To get to this point we fought our way through the State Department, the California Immigration Service Center, the National Visa Center in Vermont, the Department of Homeland Security investigators, the Phnom Penh Police Department, the Cambodian Records Center, the Cambodian Emigration Authority, the United States Embassy in Phnom Penh, US Customs & Immigration Services, and finally the US Customs & Border Protection. (I'm sure many of you went through similar mazes.) We turned in over 1,000 pages of documentation, had her fingerprints taken 4 times (at $680 a shot), sat through multiple interviews and jumped through numerous other hoops. After almost 4 years of this sort of thing, she is now a full-fledged United States Citizen. And believe me, we are soooooooooo done. lol I want to make special mention of this site... CandleForLove was very, very helpful to us in many ways, and Sakha and I thank each and every one of you here. It's been a long journey and CFL helped make it possible. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Cheers!
