Anyone for madness?
23 Nov 2005

ok, anyone who has ever lodged an application for immigration to another country is just downright MAD! I mean the paperwork involved! It's obscene the number of copies and pages of paperwork we had to go through today. After filling out a 48 page document, we had to get poked, prodded, and x-rayed by various medical professionals. Then we needed 5 passport photos EACH! Are you aware of how much these things can cost? Jeez, one company was asking $20 for 2 photos. Had I known what I was getting both Greg and I into when I suggested this, I might have reconsidered. Tomorrow the darn thing will be in the mail. Here's hoping.

One more thing, I never thought it would be so difficult to prove that you've been dating/living together. Think about it what evidence do you ever have other than your word of mouth? Pictures, but how can you prove when they were taken? E-mails, In my limited experience I know that anything can be doctored. Bills? Nothing was in our name together. It's all down to driver's license addresses and car insurance. Our family has to vouch for us. It's getting honestly ridiculous.
