Dear all,
Finally, after almost two years of struggling, I got the NIW I-140 approval notice email today
. My first try of NIW was denied at NSC after 14 months, and I re-filed to the TSC during the July VB fiasco last year. Two weeks before last Christmas, I got a very non-specific RFE asking for some documents (citations and publications) I sent them five months ago. So, I virtually re-sent the same documents with minor update (more citations) one week after I received the RFE letter, and five weeks later, got the approval. It is a great sense of relief. I would like to thank all the friends of this forum for your kind suggestions and encouragement; particularly, the invaluable advice from earlier forum members eb1doc and honkman, and more recently, from pana, ChrisV, JerIst, tipotodo, nscagony, HelpingHand, and jk0274.
Hanging there, my friends; you will get through soon!
