We were high school sweethearts (in the 1980s) but maybe, just maybe there is something in her background that she is hiding from me.

The real issue here is that there's no point in being able to get through immigration quickly if you have to wait for her on the other side. Time to start looking for a new wife.

Applied 1-26-19, still under review
Wife Applied 2-4-19, conditional approval 2-8-19
There's no rhyme or reason to this I see. My trip isn't until July so I have time but this whole process....I'm a little turned off by it. And some of you have been waiting months! It shouldn't take that long.
