plastic GC arrived
First of all, congradulation to Walker. Well done!! Do you recall what I said last week The.Walker?? I said you guys will see approvals soon in next 4 weeks? And here we go: our compratiot finally received it. All others who are on the 212 hold, please have some patience. I am telling you from excellent and reliable source: congressional source who told me that there are only 2000 more cases left to process and they are doing it in a slow pace but it sounds like it is a good pace.
I received my plastic Greencard yesterday, got drunk too and woke up early, hung over and thanked my attorney who is far beyong exceptional. Hadn't she worked on my case, I would have been deported long time ago. I also thanked my congressional office person who is really intelligent and understands people problem well. Makes me feel like wow!! nice people are out there.
People, I am fighting for 1 more unfair decision: My GC says I am a permanent resident under category AS6 since Aug XX 09 but it supposed to be about 10 months earlier. I am going to ask congressional office to ask USCIS again to backdate me on a fair basis -- as it happens for every greencard applicants within 4 months, why me who has to loose time for the wait I have done. If this is one of the things that USCIS agrees to do, off course I am going to try. Time is so important for all of us.
guys, its early morning and I hope when you wake up today, you all will receive mails with the approvals. I really wish that all of us who have suffered from this hold will see the freedom we all have dreamed about. It feels great. Those who are are in pain because of this wait, please take my words, you wont wait too long. Your green card approval (Welcome letter) is coming soon. You all owe me a drink and a burger, what I said earlier last week is coming true.
Lastly, please try to communicate even though GC gets approved or not. Our common agendas and sufferings should unite us for future agendas where I speculate when we apply for citizenship, they won't say "oh you are the guy with 212 hold and we did a favor to you". Speaking in 1 voice is so important. Congrats to Walker again and his family, I am happy for you. All others, yours bright days are coming ahead. So please sleep stress free.
