Finally the day for which I had waited all these years has come and my lifelong dream has come true. After a long wait of 4.5 years my 485 was approved on 30'th November and I received the magic e-mail.

Application Type: I485 , APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Current Status: Notice mailed welcoming the new permanent resident.

I am calling it a Green Friday because I hear that a record number of Green Cards were approved on that day.

The feeling is unreal and the full import of this is yet to sink in completely. I feel infinitely relieved now.
My whole world seems to have changed forever and an endless array of possibilities seem possible now..

The bad news is that my wife's application is still pending even though her Name Check has been cleared as per Infopass.
I'm hoping that she gets approved shortly so that we can close this Green Card saga on a happy note.

* Heartfelt thanks to Mr Rajiv Khanna for running this portal. This portal has been my lifesaver and constant daily companion since 2005.
Ever since I stumbled upon it in 2005, this portal has been a temple where I have come to continue dreaming and keep my hopes alive ( even though the odds of failure were very high ).

* I would like to thank radd ( God bless his soul ) for starting the CC forum. I would "absolutely not be here" today without this.

* I would like to thank all forum members who shared their experience and provided their inputs and suggestions.
Some names that stand out in my mind for being the beacon lights of hope and guidance include gp111, ks_cc, real_canadian etc..

* I was stuck in Name Check for almost the last two years. ( It took me 4.5 years to get GC even with CC ).
I was at a point where I had lost my complete faith in the system and was fast slipping into a "I give up" mindset.
I had the ignomious distinction of being the oldest member (PD wise) on the CC forum.

* It was a tough and harrowing journey with a lots of ups and downs. I am infinitely thankful to God for providing his blessings throughout this process.

* Wishing all the best to people still stuck in the GC process. I have no suggestions because I know each person's situation is different.

* Oh yeah!!! I'll be around. This forum addiction would last me for a long time to come.
