You do have a valid point Jerry.  I don't know how often the Irishman stops by, but maybe he can check our limits.  You're right, it's not like this is a high traffic site.

Since I always upload my pictures to Facebook or the QQ zone so family can see them, both of those sites resize pictures as they upload.  Then, if I want to share something, the picture is a lot smaller.

Gerry, as I recall.. Irish said ones before, that he will not pay for "Extra Bandwidth" if needed. He's the one to set us up here and if there were charges.. he'd taken care of them himself so far.

This is really off topic, and I think may deserve its own thread.  I will say I have gotten a LOT from this forum in the short time I've been here, and I'd be HAPPY to donate.  I'm sure there's a way to take donations, rather than create a membership fee or something to help defray costs.

I sent in the AOS and the immigration application fees.
Asked for electronic process and they said yes.
So last week I sent the whole shebang in two emails. cross your fingers and maybe I will be headed back to China soon to fetch my daughter.

Fiona is waiting patiently for her daughter. She talks to her twice a day and uses amazon.cn to send her cookies and snacks to take to school.

The photo is looking west from Firestone charter school toward Longmont. if not For prairie dogs and Longmont it would have been a great photo.

Sweet Gerry!

Can Fiona sing from the sound of music? The hills are alive?

Another turn down....

how does one show proof of ownership and value of savings / checking accounts.  real-estate.
The real estate is easy. I have a deed but the bank accounts. How do you show you own every penny in them. I think they are just being picky again.

where is the GUZ P3 SUPPLEMENT

Take photo of Bank you have an Account with, withdraw all your Money.. go home and take photo with all the Money and receipt.. then go back and deposit it and take another photo of receipt showing deposit.
..or have the Bank make out a Cashier's Check in your name, take photo and put it back in.

Here is some additional information that may help you. I think a letter from the bank explaining that you are the sole person on the bank account and the account is free of liens and other claims would be sufficient.

May the petitioner/sponsor count assets to meet the 125 percent minimum income requirement? Yes, except with form I-864EZ. The sponsor's income is totaled first. Personal assets and/or the income and assets of household members who have signed an I-864A are totaled next. Usually the sponsor must present evidence of location, ownership and value including liens and liabilities for each asset listed. The consular officer must find that the financial value of the asset can be converted to cash within one year to support the sponsored immigrant without undue harm to the sponsor or his/her family.

Thanks Robertt. I sent in the retry today. Hopefully the letter from my bank will convince them that the money is really, really mine.  But with my luck they will probably find some other stupid mistake and nail me again for another 20 days,

OPEN QUESTION.  I want to be in Cancun in December.  Anyone know where an American green card holder gets a Mexico VISA?  Google didn't help.


SHHH ! its a surprise.


never mind. I found an email address for the Mexico consulate in Denver.   

I 'll have my toes in the water, my ass in the sand. Not a worry in the world, a cold drink in my hand.

WOO HOO!

 I am sure a lot of guys wonder about this as well. But a green car holder does not need a visa to travel to Mexico.
From the Mexican consulate in Denver.

Mr. Pineo:

If your wife is a holder of a valid Chinese passport, and a USA green card, she can visit Mexico as a tourist; both of you will receive the Tourist forms before landing or at the first pint of immigration entrance.

Sincerely yours,

Blanca Martinez,


No sneaking her passport away and send it off and watching the mailbox so she doesn't find it.
Haha,  jut tell he to pack for a few days in the mountains and head to the airport.. great.
