Congrats! That's no small feat these days.

I guess they never found out you're a member of the Bomberhood.

You're not kidding. Just the amount of time and money that I have spent over
these 5 years has been tremendous. It was about time...

Now I can get back to living my life again...

Congrats or my condolences depending on which state you've settled in.

Sorry, after having lived in Texas for 3 years my view of the US has
become jaded and I'm trying not to move back until the uber-monkey is
out of office.

I've become fascinated by how polar the US is, some of the most
friendly, charitable, innovative and creative people you can hope to
meet anywhere on the planet, but also some of the scariest gun carrying
racist bigots that ever existed (maybe thats just Huntsville, TX)

Maybe I'm too chicken to go back and therefore hail to you for having
the will to add your cool soul to a country that needs it.


Laters,

Marz

New Yawk, but we are seriously considering moving a little west (ID), NY is
much to expensive.

Thanks! Where do you originally come from?

My wife's a naturalized US citizen and our daughter a full US citizen
as she was born in Texas while we were there, so I know we'll be back
one day.

Texas is a great place to live, did that for 5 years. Maybe the problem is
you, or is your residence in Huntsville being forced on you :<)

Did you have to dodge the border patrol that the politicians are trying to
push these days?

I don't get it... why does nobody say, "We have to guard the northern border
with Canada!?" It's always "Keep the Mexicans out!" I gues s the Mexican
culture is just too radical for them.

I dodged no border patrol. I did everything legal, paid my fees and showed
up whenever they called me in and provided all info that they needed.

Its probably because all the Mexicans are illegal. If they all followed
procedures set out by the USCIS, there wouldn't be a problem at all.

Would it be rude to ask where in the UK? For some reason I've
started to read you with an Oldham accent! :)

Yep, I work in a room with 60 legal latinas and latinos from Mexico and
almost all the central and south American countries. They wouldn't be able
to work at my place of business if they weren't legal.

Now you are a tattooed American skank.

Not much of an upgrade. Try a little harder the next 5 years.

Congrats!!!!

My friends wife is trying to become a US citizen. However, now they realize
she used counterfeit documents to enter the country and are considering
deportation, calling it deception, fraud or something like that.
And here she wonders what the problem is. Go figure, commit a crime and
wonder why everything ain't just peachy.

The real irony is she is a really nice, hard working person. A live in
nanny for a few hundred a week. How many US born folks would do that. Heck,
that pay would barely cover my car expenses.
Oh well, time will tell.

The company I work for solved the legal to work issue by requiring a DMV
printout. Seems a driver license ( ID card) can be bought on the street, but
a print out from the DMV isn't so easy to forge....

Prob solved..

Congratulations from me too.

I remember you posting about the heartwrench of leaving so much behind, the excitement you both felt when you finally arrived, and the snippets of information you gave us as you settled in and then moved.

As a Euro I cant see why you'd want to give up the good life to live in that country, but from your post you sound as if you have won something special, so I'm very happy for you and wish you well.
Very soon now you should be getting back to riding and posting, I look forward to that.
