Vent alert!!!

IMMIGRATION!!!

Oh boy am I sick of hearing this word right now?!!?

Richard is of course from America and I am from N.Ireland and we need to work out what we are wanting to do with our lives and where we want our loves to begin!!

Our main objective is of course to be together no matter what or how. But the what and how are the topics which are causing us so many problems right now.

I have been here in NJ for just under two weeks and I feel like all I have done is research and fill my head with information on immigrating!!

I know I want to live in the States but at the same time the immigration options that the government give us suck!!!! I cannot believe they want to take so much money from people and waste so much time!! How hard is it to see that two people love each other and just want to be together!

We have spent the past two years going back and forward from each other and visiting for a week or two here and there. We have come through a lot of hard times together and are still in love!!

However my main vent here is that I don't understand how illegal immigrants can come up in this country and get away with it. They work, they marry, they live here, they love it here!!!!! AAhhhhhh then when someone like me tries doing things the RIGHT way through the right places and people...it feels so impossible!!!!

As it stands right now...after spending a good two hours with a lawyer......Richard and I have 3 options which two of the three are going to take about a year plus to complete. The worst part is that none of them are guaranteed......our lawyer told us that at the interview stage of each option the person doing the interview could just decline us because they don't like the look of us!! What on earth is with that!! My answer was....well that's where you come in because I would want some serious legal action taken!!

The third option is one which I feel a lot of anxiety attached to!! It would be us starting our life together in my end of the world. The only thing is that I feel its not what Richard wants and to be honest it is not what I want either! Everything about out relationship and us is attached to NJ and this is where I would want us to remain!! I love here and everything about here! I loved working here when I was here 3years ago and I loved my life here!!

So why is this so hard to get back here and be legal??

I would ask my readers to seriously pray hard for us right now as we are having a very hard time in agreeing with a few points!!

Thanks readers!
