Immigration Interview


We just finished at the American Embassy.

Hyunjoo's immigration interview is finished at last and all's well so far. If things continue to go well, we'll have her passport back when we return to Kanazawa on the 20th. There should be a shiny new visa for her in the passport and we'll be that much closer to getting her permanent residency status.

I'm not exactly sure what steps we'll have to go through once we arrive in the states. More bureau-crazy I'm sure. The guy at the Embassy wasn't even sure. He slid outta that one gracefully with a "well, that a different government agency..."

We started this process back in November and over $2000 later, we're finally wrapping things up. It makes me appreciate that the Immigration Bill didn't get passed a few weeks ago. We're going through all of these steps and everyone else should have to as well.
