I-485 approved
Hello all,
I just wanted to let you know that I got the happy e-mail from USCIS this morning "On Sep 19 this application was approved and a notice has was sent."
I can't tell you how happy I am right now - I know that compared to most people in this forum my wait since filing was extraordinarily short, and I feel lucky and blessed for that, but I have started this journey more than eight years ago when I came to study in the US, and I've been working toward a green card ever since. At times it felt like walking on a tight rope, where a small misfortune like not finding a job in time could mean the end, but I was fortunate enough to make it all the way.
Since I don't know much about immigration law, I have not been able to participate much to the forums with answers, but I have been an avid reader for many months. And whenever I saw somebody else happily approved, my heart would jump with joy, hoping my turn will come soon.
To everybody still waiting, the queue is one person shorter now, and I hope you all get your approvals soon.
Thanks for all your input, and good luck
