I-130 submitted

On December 16th we submitted the first immigration documents to apply for my spousal visa. $420.00 later… fingers are crossed that we hear back soon. From what we have read online the process takes just under a year. It’s so exciting to think that this time next year I will probably be preparing to move to Washington to be with my beloved. Those immigration forms are crazy complex and involve many many steps and supporting documents. I wonder how anyone with English as a second language manages to navigate the process.
