Hi all,
I’m excited to finally share some good news – my case has been approved, and my card is being produced!
A special thank you to
@Sm1smom! There are no words to express how thankful I am for your help. This forum has been invaluable, and I truly wouldn’t have made it through this process without all the support, advice, and shared experiences from you and others.
An interesting thing happened: my case was approved on September 18th, but on September 25th, I received a call from the Congress office regarding the inquiry I had submitted earlier. They said USCIS got back to them, stating that my background check was still pending. I’m not sure if it just took USCIS a long time to respond to Congress, but as of the 25th, the caseworker mentioned my background check was incomplete.
Regardless, my case is now approved! For those following the timeline spreadsheet, my case is listed there. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions—I’ll be checking the forum for a while, as this has been my daily read throughout the year.
Thank you again, everyone, and fingers crossed for those still waiting. Wishing you all the best!
