His sister has been waiting 12 long years to get the chance to come
here, and you want to wreck it? :(
Well, my opinion is that it is your husband's petition, not yours, so
you should inform him of what's going on with it. I'm sure he's anxious
to get his sister here after all this time. If you have issues, you
should talk to him about it, not sneak around behind his back to
sabotage it. That's my opinion, anyway.
