His green card is on the way! yay!). The INS wanted all kinds of documentation, and naturally I couldn't find half of it. I had most of my tax returns on a computer that is near death, blah blah blah. So, my game plan now is to have a hard file copy, a digital copy and a back up digital copy--all in an easily accessible place. I don't want to go through this drama again. As I was looking through my files, I realized I had bank statements that were 8 freaking years old. Nuts! Oh, the job that's ahead... Feel free to swing by and straighten out my mess as you did yours, if you feel so inclined. ;) I had some drama with this recently as my husband and I were mucking through the immigration process (we were approved!
