Jilly: Not defensive. Just saying, I have been prepared for this all along. Never thought it was going to be easy. And when I said you didn't tell me anything I didn't know, I mean as far as how hard it is. The paperwork issues seem to create new problems every day and I learn something new from each and every one of them.

The information I found most useful was from a continuous post of a guy who did file for his woman. And, Jomo's sister, his pseudo step-mom, and her two girls were all brought to the US by men. Maybe men just don't talk about it as much as we do.

I-13: This needing of the police report is a new thing. According to the USCIS web site, they are holding all filings after March and sending out letters asking for police checks before they process them. I figured you fit into that category so you'd want to know.
