Oh man what a week. First thing is first...

My wife is here with me in the MURICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh man what a series of events. All so I can just hug my wife in our home.

Long story short (it truly is as short as I can put it), everything started around a year ago when I filed a petition for my wife to get her permanent residency in the Murica "green card". I hired a lawyer to get the initial paperwork started which cost a little over a grand. Once approved, we then had to take down a mountain of paperwork to turn into USCIS. All translated and notarized in Mexico and here. All this also costing a pretty penny and more time. Months passed and finally everything was approved..... only to start all over again but now with the National Visa Center. I had to fill out their Financial Support form along with the infamous DS-260 online. Both were another $500+. After many many months of waiting, there was an error on a form which was utter BS! Once the form got resubmitted, I was put in back of the line to wait even more. Finally after 10 very difficult months, I got the news that everything is approved and ready to head to the final step at the US Embassy in Juarez Ch, Mexico. We were literally screaming in joy. A month later, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! !!

Me and my dad take off from Houston to Juarez MX. Just passed San Antonio, we ran into a very rare thing in Texas...

ICE!!!!!! It was 100% trial by fire driving lesson for me, my Benzo, and the frozen road. I stopped for fuel in San Antonio near UTSA to fill up the car before hand.

FUN FACT:

My 2002 Mercedes-Benz E-320 with 157k on the ticker got from San Antonio to the Zaragosa International bridge in El Paso. A distance of 500+ miles on one tank. The car (a heavy, not aero dynamic, 3.2L V6 DOHC) marked an avg. of 31.6 MPG. Compare this to the much newer 2015 Hyundai Sonata 4 cyl in ECO mode I rented to go back home. That car only avg. 28.7 MPG and 430 miles to a tank under very similar conditions.

Anyways, back to the journey to Juarez. The highway was frozen. Passing over bridges was hella scary. Good thing for ESP on the car helping keep me straight. I was OPPOing like a mofo on longer bridges. I stopped at gas station to get some coffee and washer fluid.

We kept on chuggin through the night until we reached a huge hill in the middle of the desert. Up top there was a rest area full of 18 wheelers and a police blockade. Already going just 2-3 mph, I tried to slow down for the upcoming road block.... I couldn't stop. I turned the wheel.. nope! It was going to be in the world's slowest car crash into a trooper. I caught the drunk bumps and stopped before doing so :]

They told us it was worse up ahead and that we can continue if we choose to. He was just spacing us out a bit. We continued onward. Then, we kept seeing truck after truck upside down or flipped on their side on the side of the road. It was now 2am and I found a group of trucks pulled over. I found a spot in between and we slept in the car until sunrise. In the morning, more traffic was flowing and we continued. A little pass the I-20 / I-10 interchange the clouds cleared and the temperature rose quickly. I began to haulazz because I had to pick up my wife and father in law at the Juarez airport at 2PM. The W210 is such a smooth driving highway cruiser. Enough so that a state trooper on the other side crossed the median and turned its lights on. I look at the speedometer... 96 MPH in a 75 lol!!!! Whoops. He got some info and checked my record. He said, "try to keep it under 75 and once into El Paso it will drop to 65. Your record is clean and the road was empty. Just slow it down and sign here saying that I gave you a warning" Yes Sir!!

I finally stopped for fuel before crossing over, picking up my wife at the airport, then going to our hotel. Our date with the consulate was Tuesday at 8:45 AM. We stayed at the Conquistador Inn. An awesome hotel in the general vicinity of the consulate.

Juarez is waaaaaaay better than it was just 10 years ago. A lot of security and no more dangerous now than any major US city. Hand to heart. My cousin was a USBP agent paroling this area and I've seen and heard some things about Juarez. It is such a better place than it was in the not so distant past. This hotel was great and even offered Consulate service help downstairs and free rides to any of the Visa/Resident resources.

We went on a quick tour and went to a local museum. I saw a big ass head :]

Also, a giraffe made of used tires

one of Juan Gabriel's houses

Also the Casa de Adobe. The green sign shows where Mexico ends and New Mexico/Texas starts. The white marker shows the 3 way point I believe.

We also killed some time at a Liverpool department store where we saw this..

BECAUSE FIRE BABY!!!!!

Back at the hotel late Sunday, we decided to stop at the consulate service area in our hotel to ask a few question since Monday morning my wife had an appointment for her medical exam (required before interview). The lady there asked when our appointment was, what time her medical exam was, and asked if she got her digital finger prints done.. WHAT??? What digital finger prints??? Turns out we had to schedule an appointment for digital finger prints forever ago. Nobody is allowed into their interview without that done and scheduling an appointment can take days. The lady advised us to go to the finger print place right after the medical exam Monday (which took 4 hours and cost $512) and beg the guard to let her in without an appointment. So that is what we did. The guards couldn't say no to that beautiful face :] They asked us to come back at the butt crack of dawn before the interview on Tuesday. Tuesday arrives and my wife gets her prints done. We haulazz to the waiting area til they call her into the embassy. After an hour delay, she goes in and I start praying.

She tells me that they did NOT approve her application because some papers were missing. We haulazz to the hotel's consulate service office. On the way, I call my dad and father in law to meet us in that service office. Once we all are there, my wife pulls out a green sheet of paper and says PSYCH!!! IT WAS APPROVED!!! LOLZ!!! OMGZ!!!!! YESSSSS!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, the completed paperwork wasn't going to arrive til Thursday afternoon. The paperwork has to be paid and presented at the border station (another $280 plus 2 more hotel days) My dad and father in law took the Benz back to Houston on Tuesday and left us there at the hotel. On Wednesday afternoon, we were bored and decided to see the pool. The water was clean and the sun was warm. But, it was barely 50F with a very cool breeze. We got our swimming gear on, went to the pool and I jumped into the deep end. IT WAS LIKE AN ICE CHEST AARRRGGHHH!!! Omg I went into panic/survival mode as my wife was dying in laughter. It was the worst thing ever! I dried myself off and put my shirt on. Soon after I had a pain from my tummy near my belly button. A bee was caught under my shirt was was stabbing me like a mofo. Double Whammy of PAIN!

Lol that next Thursday, we got our packet and took a taxi to the border. The taxi (a 2004 Chevy Cavalier) crossed the border and waited for us on the other side. She turned in her packet to the agent. After reviewing everything and stamping it, he told her that she is now a legal US resident of Murica! She still can't vote, buy property in Mexico within 5 years/live there, or ask for any government assistance in 5 years. We crossed over and the taxi took us to the El Paso airport to rent a car. Soon after I got the Sonata, we took off to Houston at 8 PM. 2 hours out from El Paso on I-10... everything was frozen again :( We stayed at a Super 8 in Van Horn, TX and took off to Houston the next morning. By Friday afternoon, we reached Houston and by that evening, we were in our new home together :] I took a couple extra days from work and came back in today.

So that was my adventure. After almost a year of headaches, tears, and about $3500 in legal BS, it all came to a crazy 5 days. Now she is here in our new home. For a chubby, not too attractive, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! making $12 an hour, it always seemed like a new !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , 2 rad old German legend tank cars, and smoking hot wife should of been an impossible feat..... but if your heart is always in the right place and you have enough ganas, anything is possible :]

Thank you all here on LaLD and OPPO that have been my only source of social media. You peeps are the best peeps anywhere!!!! * literally high fives every one of you * :]

PS: For those who see Mexican/Latin American immigrants and say "why don't those damn beaners just cross the border legally?" ... yeah ok, like if it's just so easy huh? We need immigration reform! Punish the bad guys like !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! did with honor. But at the same time, end the political BS and let these hard working people get the same shot at the American dream the same easy way most other foreigners do.

Long live the UNITED States of MURICA!!!!

God bless Texas!

Viva La LaLD!

This is like a companion piece to DeMuro's about importing a Skyline, what with all the labyrinthine steps and paperwork, though you had more personal time (and of course emotions) invested and went over to bring her back yourself. And you have a much longer term investment! So glad my wife was imported from South America by her parents when she was five, I missed out on all that paperwork. Nice writeup, I chuckled at the pool incident and felt the tension with the bureaucratic two-step. Also glad for the tourist info, I haven't heard much of Juarez and was imagining something out of Desperado. Congratulations

Still, security first, then reform.

I had money saved up just in case (very difficult to do) but many people go and for ANY slight error on a form or lack of funds, their applications are revoked :'(

Thanks davesaddiction, muuch appreciated! All this is of course summarized. The process was a year long struggle that I wouldn't wish on any couple or family. Seeing the heart break of sooo many people, good honest and hella hardworking people getting denied applications for what ever small error on the mountain of paperwork required is heart breaking. Especially those who do not have the money and resources :'( I came to all of this with a US citizen mind set. Some Americans really don't know how lucky they are to be here. Compared to other nation's process for doing the same thing, I think it is BS how the system is for Latin American applicants. The difference is vast trust me Still, I believe in security of our nation 1st, but reform is desperately needed now! I heard a rumor while there that by 2018, there will be no more residency (green cards) to be given to people from Latin America.

I was telling my dad the other day (he lives in Texas too) that I think politicians should have to work/live like the average American. I think they're too disconnected.

Their salary should be the average American salary, have to work the full year instead of about half, pay for their medical coverage, etc.

I think our country would be much better.

I have several friends who have gone through the same process with/for their wives (one Canadian, one Indian), and it is terribly long, frustrating and expensive. We are a nation of immigrants, after all, and this glorious melting pot wouldn't be what it is today if we hadn't be open and willing to take in those looking for a better life for themselves and their families.

EL_ULY my man, we missed you!

We were just playing Cards Against Humanity yesterday and we joked how we needed an EL_ULY card! The question was Who Got Caught With Their Hand In The Cookie Jar?!?! Obvious answer is obvious - EL ULY!

Hahaha!

Congratulations on your wife getting in legally and properly, I'm so happy for you both. Welcome to America, I hope you two can live the rest of your lives in prosperity here! Chase that dream! It IS attainable.

And for this next part I apologize for being a bit of a jerk, I'll make up for it with fun dance GIF's afterwards, I promise. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE say America. I want that MURICA crap to die so badly, I find it quite disrespectful. Again, I apologize for being pedantic. I'm originally from NJ and grew up in the town George Washington had his HQ during the Revolutionary War, I'm kind of crazy old school American.

OK on to the fun again:

thanks buddy! Much appreciated sir! I'm with you on the America :] T'was all in automotive humor. I'm glad there are still people in this great nation that appreciate how lucky they are. Seeing the hardship and heartache at the embassy is a sobering reminder on how lucky we are to be US citizens and the opportunities we have here. Security first, but heavy immigration reform is needed. At least in the Latin american side because other nations have it way too simple doing the same thing I did with my wife. FYI, she has made up her mind and wants to own a mid 50's Ford Fairlane... I support this!! :]

A mid 50's Fairlane!? Oh thank the glorious god I can stop sending you burnt cookies when you pick one up! (Also, just saw an awesome deal on a 1970 Mercury Cyclone in Arizona)

I'm sure it was 100% in good fun and thanks for being on my side of that battle lol.

As for immigration reform....I'm 100% for it.

I believe firmly that anyone who wants to legally enter the United States of America, pay their taxes and follow the laws should be welcomed with open arms! We shouldn't be shutting the door on people who want to come here and lead a better life. It's why our forefathers came here and it's why we broke away from England's Tyranny.

I've never been huge on Tattoos but I plan on getting my first one sometime soon. I've been planning it for over a year (I feel I should think about it long term).

I think I'll do different wording though.

I'm crazy into early American history. I mean, I really grew up in it. A house 2 away from my first childhood home was built in the late 1600s.

It may be easier, cheaper and less bureaucratic to get one from a rescue centre.

I can't get over the cost and hoops you gad to jump though to get your wife into the U.S. But it's done now. Just be good to each other. Remember a woman isn't always looking for a prince, but someone to treat her like a princess.

Take care and all the best for the future both.

Thanks man, I'm thinking I have to do it.

Well, at the end of all this, I'm so glad your wife is with you in the USA. Congrats again.

Please go buy a Fairlane so I can stop sending you tragic pictures.
