2003 : recieved my GC
2004 : got married , wife on J-1 got really upset to find out that it would take 5-6 years to get family based GC, thought of moving back to H-1
3 FEB 2005 : filed EB2 NIW I-140 (does not need a labor)
APRIL : Got a RFE replied to it
14 JUN 2005 : I-140 approval
18 JUL 2005 : filed I-485 + EAD
10 AUG 2005 : code 3 fingerprint
19 SEPT 2005 : filed AP thinking we got stuck with RETRO
24 SEPT 2005 : EAD appoved (had no LUD's)
