Chef Mike Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Just posting to say hi to all. I am in the process of getting my loved one to the US. Your site has been very useful and hopeful as well.My wife and I were married last july in Shenzhen after jumping thru hoops in Guangzho. Had two wonderful weeks together. Filed I-130 form in early September and received reciept. I am returning to China in January for another week in Shenzhen and Hong Kong as Caifeng now had a pass port for HK. We met online, and haven't stopped talking to each other since.Any and all advice is appreciated. Thank you for all you do! Chef Mike Link to comment

Carl Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 All I can say is hold onto your shorts. I have noticed that even though the time lines have been getting shorter there is always the chance that some world event not even connected to our getting our loved ones here can bog down the entire system. Just keep your sense of humor and keep focused on the prize and she will be here before you know it (even though it might take a year and a half). Link to comment

gman2531 Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Welcome to CFL. It's customary for all chefs to invite CFL members to a big feast once your SO makes it to the States. Just educate yourself to all the steps in the process so that you have all the information you need on hand for each step. Double check all your paperwork before you send it in. Make sure to copy everything before you send it in. Take plenty of photos. Save your phone records and email records. Save your plane tickets and such for evidence of a bonafide relationship. If you haven't already done so, check out the Cultural Village in Shenzhen. It is quite fascinating. Good Luck! Link to comment

Hi Mike and welcome (regardless of your roots). As you can see there are people who are so jealous of Texans that they actually try to belittle us. Eh' Cheese-Boy? Link to comment

warpedbored Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 Welcome to CFL Mike. You will find friends here. I noticed you said "your site" in your post. Now that you're a member is is "our site" Welcome aboard. Now as far as the Texican thing I can assure you that the great northwest, particularly Oregon is the only decent place to be from. The best thing to ever come out of Texas is Hwy 287. Link to comment
Guest Paul Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 Welkome, Mike, and be sure to take a bath every Saturday night whether or not you need it - there is a guy around here named Mikey who likes good smelling guys .
