Received the email notification that our (self + spouse) 485-s are approved. It took 34 months !
A big THANK YOU to Rajiv for all his efforts and this forum.
And many many thanks to all the participants here who posted valuable tips - logging in here made the long wait slightly less unbearable. And volunteers like Kashmir, 140_takes_forever, rk4gc, sillyman ... - a special appreciation to your contributions.
