We Got GreenCards in Barbados!!! DV2005 SA Region
I'm pleased to announce that our DV2005 process was a success. My husband and I received out immigrant visa stamps in our passports on Tuesday.
The hardest part of the experience was waiting in a room full of people to be called to the window. (It seems the embassy only issues 8 a.m. appointments so all immigrant and non-imigrant visa applicants were herded into a room at the same time.) We saw a lot of other people's heartbreak before it was our turn and that made us very nervous.
When we were finally called to the window, a very helpful agent went through our paper work, made adjustments to our forms to reflect my marriage and change of address... She was only interested in my paper work.. Hubby did not need education certificate or financial support documents. In fact, the only financial papers she took from me was my job letter. The only wanted my hubby's application form, his birth certificate, police record and a copy of our marriage certificate which I'd already provided. WE handed the few documents and she asked us to sit.
We lugged our bag full of documents back to our seats and waited for the next call... a few minutes later we were called by the consular agent, the same man who had rejected so many before... He took one look at my diploma, which read "bachelor of science in journalism" and proceeded to make funny comments about me becoming the next Woodward or Bernstein.
He took our fingerprints and said "congratulations, your visas are approved Return at 3 to pick up your passports." That was it. Not one question... we were so over prepared. The meticulously labled folders in our bag went unopened. We were too happy to care. It was a breeze. And I can't stop looking at the stamp in my passport..
After 5 years and several delays with an employment-based greencard process, it was ironic that this one came so easy. But we're happy and thankful. Very happy indeed. On Saturday we'll end our delayed honeymoon in Barbados and enter the US as permanent residents for the first time.
We can't wait. Thanks to the board we had our papers in order.
Thanks for all the support.
