I am leaving shortly to drive down to Charlotte NC for me and my wifes INS interviews. This is the lovely task of proving beyond a reasonable doubt that I love my wife. They also get to paw through my entire financial history. They are also allowed to ask any question they wish (includeing details about our sex life) If I refuse to answer DEPORTATION If I do not prove to their satisfaction that I indeed do love my wife DEPORTATION If she is deported I have to face the possibility of leaving the country I love and moving to Great Britain where the Govt, IRA and UDF have guns but no one else. BTW the Rat Batard lawyer I paid to be their can't make it. For all who ask she is Irish. AdTechArms |

Good luck! Having read about people going through the same process (I assume it's the one they put foreigners through after 2-3 years to check on whether the marriage is real), it's usually painless. They just want to weed out immigrant visa frauds. Tell us how it went. I'm hoping to have to go through the same thing in about 3-4 years. [:D] |

Quoted: BTW the Rat Batard lawyer I paid to be their can't make it. AdTechArms By the by-"can't make it" is not an acceptable answer, it's his responsibility to make it or get the hearing rescheduled. You need to have a little talk with this *******. I am sure it will all work out for you and your wife in the end. Sure sounds humiliating, tho. |

Don't Worry Adtecharms; I went through it, so did my brother, & my sister. It was not painful as you might think it could be. Just remember to keep your answers short and up to point, be truthful, and do not volunteer anything that is not asked. Do not try to be smart ass - It like when U get a speeding ticket, you take it go away. They do not try to trick you, they just want to make sure it is a true marriage and want to make sure you are living together and know each other well - To make sure it is not an arranged financial thingi. They just ask real life questions that you and your wife will be able to answer without any problem since they relate to your and her habits, day to day. They want to make sure it's a legit marriage. You will pass with flying colors! They also want to make sure you have financial means to support your partner and make sure it does not result in welfare for atleast 3 yrs. Standard process. Good luck - Don't worry - Just go through the process which side of bed you tend to get up, who does what, in other words, go through your daily habits and remember them so both of you can answer each thing correctly. If they ask something neither of you would know, tell them, that's not something you or her would know and they will ask another type of question. I know if should be nobody's business but it is an immigration matter and we do want to make sure only the people who deserve it get through in mostly. |

Quoted: if she was from mexico you wouldn't have this problem. mike Ha! And she's from the wrong country too so she can't claim to be a refugee or asylum-seeker like 90% of the rest do. Quoted: Don't Worry Adtecharms; I went through it, so did my brother, & my sister. It was not painful as you might think it could be. Brought the whole family over, eh. |

ADTECHARMS, I went through this with my Frau about a year ago and it was an easy day. The only hard part was the drive from Fayetteville to Charlotte...200 miles with a traffic light every 1/4 mile. Did get to watch a hooker give head to a guy in the cab next to us, though that's another story. The INS guy was real pleasent. Bring any documents that show some form of jointness such as bank statements, bills, etc. Anything with both your names on it. We were prepared for the worst and it turned out quite nice. Good luck. |

Quoted: By the grand wisdom of Beurocrat number 09457034957095740958 My wife is allowed to stay in the country for at least ten years. Thank you for the support. Ten years? Then you have some hope that most of us don't. I'm sure you will be glad to see her go in ten years. Just kidding, I think. [;D] |
