    additional family information form

    Thanks again RobsLuv, I thought your answer was the right one. I am also assuming that even though my only brother isin't coming with me I should still fill in his info in the final section of that form! Hopefully I am done asking you questions...at least for now!!!!

    thanks for your input. that all makes a lot of sense to me. i am actually starting to think we should have a legal civil ceremony asap so we can start the paperwork while we wait for the actual cermony we are planning for the spring. what does anyone think of that idea???

    Work or get married first???

    thanks tamee that is very helpful in getting started. Maybe it would be better to get legally married ASAP. Then we can start the paperwork and hopefully it would all be approved in 6 to 9 months around the time we would like to have the cermony and have me move there at that time? does that...
