Thanks guys for the good info... I passed it along to my wife and Im not sure when we will have time to further investigate the situation at least it is there in the archives for me and others to access in the future.

I guess it might be difficult for someone not involved in the situation to understand how much a person wants to help family and friends that are in a different country... Im sure some would be cynical and think that ah here we go again immigrants bringing there entire family over to burden the system... but these are quality people... today my dad gave my wife a great compliment... he told her how Ukraine could allow such a smart woman to leave the country... Im not sure if my wife understood if he meant the Ukraine or Ukranian men who missed out by not marrying her before I found her... anyway she said that the Ukranian men (she said it half joking) were not smart enough to know how smart and how good a wife she could be... I agree entirely and Im thankful I found her...

Personally, I'm glad more Eastern Europeans are coming to this country.  In fact, I'd like to see more Europeans all together come.  Not from a racial stand point, but from their more liberal attitudes on society and letting people enjoy life with less regulation.....all the sins of course (sex, drinking, smoking, etc.)  And the benefit of more thinner attractive women, good thing I don't work for the INS or it would be an open door policy for any beautiful women from anywhere in the world.  They would just have to prove why they wouldn't go back to get the visa approved.

You echo my sentiments exactly on the specifics of your liberal point.  But I prefer to not be so politically correct, ahem... polite.

You mentioned that some would read your post and be cynical about immigrants bringing their entire family over, but this is exactly what we are all getting into and have to deal with now or in the future.  It is an interesting subject but no one can blame you, you’re in love and you want to be the best husband possible and this includes making your wife happy by making her family happy and comfortable.  While it seems to me that everything for you is going so fast it has been a great learning experience reading your posts.  It is such a big responsibility and endeavor that you have gotten yourself into please keep posting.
