Mary and I are very pleased to say it is, PINK !!!!!!!!!!!!

 

We arrived at the Consulate just a little after 7:00am. There were a lot of people there already. At 7:16, the security guards came out with the bullhorn and began shouting at everyone. It seemed he was upset that the lines were not straight! At about 7:45, they began admitting people. I waited with Mary and Sophia, (OUR daughter), until they got to the head of the line. I waited outside with several other husbands until about 8:30 or so. (The beverages at the 7-Eleven were a hell of a lot cheaper than inside and I got tired of the lawyers hovering like vultures!) I the headed up to the 4th floor coffee shop, paying 110RMB for two cups of coffee. I talked with the other men waiting there are was shocked to hear that none of them had use CFL or VJ as a reference for this process. Most said that they had hired U.S. lawyers. I talked about all I had learned here about the process, how to assemble the papers and the "kitchen sink"concept. All of these guys said, "My lawyer never told me that".

I seen several very sad looking ladies come down stairs. One of the guys I was sitting with wife came down with a blue slip in her hand. I felt a very deep saddness for them.

A few minutes later I seen Mary and Sophia come around the corner. I could tell by both of thier faces that it was good news. She came to the table I was sitting at and sat down. I asked, "WELL ???". She set her purse on the table and slowly started to remove papers from it. I didn't take a single breath for those few moments. Finally, she removed the famous pink slip. I think they heard my shout of joy on the 5th floor.

As soon as I did this, I felt like hell. Here I was so happy and relieved, and just a few tables away was a man and his family who had just been given a blue slip. So, I urged Mary and Sophia to get out of there.

So, here is how the interview went:

 

When her number was called, she went to her assigned window. She said the VO was a young, very tall, dark-haired man. He smiled a lot and was very polite. Mary said that she could speak some English, but she wanted to do the interview in Chinese, (she has been worried about this from the start). The VO said OK.

 

Questions:

 

1) What is your husband's name?

 

2) What is your job? (meaning Mary)

 

3) What is your husband's job?

 

4) How many children does your husband have?

 

5) What are thier ages?

 

6) Where did you meet?

 

7) Do you mind your husband's other marriages?

 

8) Where does your husband live?

 

9) How many times has he come to China?

 

10) Is he here today? (This is when Mary handed him my passport)

 

11) Can I see your pictures? (Mary had an album of pictures ready,

she said that he smiled as he looked through the album.)

 

That was it! No more questions. He did not ask for any of the 25 pounds of paper we had prepared. No I-134, no tax returns, bank letter, nothing. Now, I sent all of this to Mary months ago and I had her send it in with the P3. I am now more convinced than ever that it is good to do this. I know they say they will throw anything not asked for away, but I do not believe this.

 

Well, the hotel is charging me for the computer time, so I am going to get off here for now. I AM CONVINCED that without the help from all of you here at CFL and with the support all of you have shown me and everyone else, the outcome would not have been the same for us.

As we rode back to the hotel in the cab, I started feeling a little guilty about being so happy. I started to think about all of those who have waited a hell of a lot longer than Mary and I, about those who have been denied or are trying to overcome a blue slip. I said a prayer of thanks to God at this point and asked him to help all of the other people are waiting for this happy day.

Once again, THANK YOU, to all of you here at CFL.
