With 2007 came the resolution of getting into paperwork mode.
I’ve started getting forms and filling them and tonight I met with a lawyer thru the free Immigration Legal Clinic.
The lawyer’s advices were great, the whole thing does not seem too hard, I think we’ll do it ourselves.

I learned that if you have been married for less than 2 years you get a conditional green card for 2 years, which then gives you another thing to do to get rid of this “conditionnality”... so why rush it… I’ll wait till 2 years before applying :)
