You have shown your true colors here in this OP. I've followed your plight - yes dealing with the bureaucracy is difficult. Sometimes takes years to cut the red tape. Been there done that.

Suck it up. I'm glad you are not running for office - you have shown here you do not have what it takes in my opinion.

Regardless, good luck. And no worries about me ever speaking to you again - I'll never see what you post. No reply needed as I will not see it.

Have a good day.

People coming on J1 visas that started after me are here before my wife is here AZLD4Candidate Nov 2021 #6

You're wife is Chinese and living in China, right? Haggard Celine Nov 2021 #8

Because she would lose access to going back and seeing her family AZLD4Candidate Nov 2021 #10

Am I misreading when you say 13 years? She's been there all her life, right? BlackSkimmer Nov 2021 #11

I think they meant that they (the OP) had been in China for a total of 13 years nt Celerity Nov 2021 #36

Yes, that makes more sense. nt BlackSkimmer Nov 2021 #42

Chin-up! Thinks will get better. Just keep trying. You've got this! 👍 NurseJackie Nov 2021 #9

When it separates your family, please let me know how you react, then teach me. AZLD4Candidate Nov 2021 #26

You're correct. NurseJackie Nov 2021 #16

Yeah, I agree obamanut2012 Nov 2021 #52

I take it that moving to China is out of the question? AJT Nov 2021 #17

No, it's not. It's what I need to do. I have property there and a valid, easily renewed visa AZLD4Candidate Nov 2021 #30

I'm so sorry if it comes to that. AJT Nov 2021 #41

:) And you have a plan. Good. The second quarantine especially Hortensis Nov 2021 #55

This is all at the feet of Trump and his anti-Chinese, xenophobic "extreme vetting" nonsense AZLD4Candidate Nov 2021 #31

I take it you are going back to China then? If you do, is there a way to Wingus Dingus Nov 2021 #20

I'm not divorcing my wife to start this over again. Going back means I never do anything like this AZLD4Candidate Nov 2021 #32

Well, I didn't necessarily mean divorce, I meant just try to track down where it went wrong Wingus Dingus Nov 2021 #39

That's a very logical and reasonable suggestion. Others have offered similar advice. NurseJackie Nov 2021 #46

If it means success, why not? NurseJackie Nov 2021 #45

I am very sorry, sir. shrike3 Nov 2021 #22

The OP invites it with the interwoven undeserved bashing of Sen. Kelly. Devil Child Nov 2021 #24

"Sen. Kelley did not "fail" the OP." --- Absolutely right. NurseJackie Nov 2021 #25

And stomping on him while he has difficulties is helpful how? shrike3 Nov 2021 #35

Nobody is doing that. NurseJackie Nov 2021 #38

People have been kind of stomping on him, IMO shrike3 Nov 2021 #40

Nobody is doing that. But what you are seeing is a bit of push-back. NurseJackie Nov 2021 #43

Very well stated, Jackie. Kindly, as well. nt Hekate Nov 2021 #56

Again, when this happens to you family, tell me how you react, then teach me your ways AZLD4Candidate Nov 2021 #27

There were many good suggestions in your last thread. BlackSkimmer Nov 2021 #28

One post on one website is going to doom Democrats? shrike3 Nov 2021 #34

Where did I say anything about "dooming" Democrats? BlackSkimmer Nov 2021 #48

Um -- what difference does it make? shrike3 Nov 2021 #33

I've noticed that's the American way AZLD4Candidate Nov 2021 #29

Sir, I realize you were venting; maybe others didn't get that. shrike3 Nov 2021 #37

Good post. BlackSkimmer Nov 2021 #44
