Endgame: The never ending saga of my wife and me through the USA insane legal immigration system

I have ten more days. . .that's it. . .ten more days until I leave for my flight to HKG. Thank you for all who donated to the GFM I set up. You paid for my plane ticket to get back to China.

HKG opened up its borders and has shortened its quarantine to seven days for fully vaxxed travelers. I will quarantine there, then I will go through Shenzhen Bay Metro into Shenzhen and re-enter China to reunite with my wife. I expect to be completely reunited on June 29th.

IF China pulls its normal games, I have a backup plan already set. I full to Bangkok from Hong Kong. . .get my Korean visa there then go to Phuket until my wife gets her Korean spouse visa.

When she does, I go to Korea from Thailand before her, then she comes after I get there. Those flights are dirt cheap.

Thank you, DU, for helping me at my neediest when my spirits were lowest.

We have re-submitted our marriage document (third time) to the idiots at the NVC for approval. She said she would rather wait with me there with her than be separated anymore.

So, we have a plan, a backup plan, and the door to coming to the US has not closed completely yet.
