I really admire how lucky you are.. Congratulations and be happy! Lets her bring lots of clothes and large luggage. But the airplane carrier may charge you for excessive luggage. I-94 will be handed out on the plane. Link to comment
mercator Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 Yeah very fast... GRATS!! I-94 for each of you I think. And Hakkamike is right, don't forget your fiancee' Enjoy! Link to comment
hakkamike Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 (edited) DO make sure you bring multiple documents of important papers and or copies of your fiancee's. Some people have lost birth certificates ect. and had to rely on relatives to replace them...... DO make sure immigration does not keep the I-94, guard it with your life Edited December 16, 2005 by hakkamike (see edit history) Link to comment

You each have an I-94 She is an immigrant. You are not. 2. Both portions of the USC's I-94 are retained by USCIS. 3. Only the I-94 departure coupon is stapled to the immigrant's passport. The entry portion is retainded by USCIS. I would hate to see you defending with you life, papers you don't need to retain. :-) Link to comment

Dean Hall Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 You are allowed to stay with your wife in the visitor, i.e. not a US Citizen line after you spill out of the plane and line up in immigration. Link to comment
