I finally made it happen. I am living in the USA now!
I have been working behind the scenes and was able to resolve all problems. I was granted the visa and I already am in the USA now.
Thank you very much to all of you who have reached out to me and supported me emotionally and legally.
By not hiring an immigration lawyer for the whole process but doing it myself I saved thousands of bucks but got grey hair :-) The following saying came to my mind more than once, lol: "a man who is his own lawyer has a fool for a client". But anyway, I made it happen. :-)
It feels very strange to finally live here. I have been in the US many many times over the last 20 years or so, but actually living 24|7|365|forever in America with my American husband still feels very unreal.
The goodbye from Germany and my German family was harder than expected. I am glad that part is over.
My whole life is a white canvas now and I am not sure yet what I am gonna paint on it, figuratively speaking. Very exciting and also pretty scary.
