Passport Stamped

Thanks for all your Kudos' guys/gals.

I did get my passport stamped in Chicago this morning and it went pretty smooth.

Well to answer one of your questions,

My lawyer made sure she had all the financials of the company from Jun-1998 including bank deposits for every single month till Feb-2004 and I guess that helped quite a bit.
