ecember 5th 2001
AD:August 29th 2002.
Got our passports stamped on: September 10th 2002.
Message changed that card was ordered: on October 9th 2002.
But, we waited for our cards for more than 2 months no luck with the cards, hence we called IIO & got to know that they had already posted the cards which we did'nt receive(also checked with our local post office, no address change through out as all our prior correspondence from INS was received at the same address promptly) & then after consulting @ VSC + also with our lawyer we re-applied for the cards on December 26th 2002 (by filling form I-90, + $130.00 per applicant with reqd. documents).
Called IIO to check on the card status during April 2003, wherein we happened to come across a polite & helpful IIO who was kind enough to expedite our card approval.
By Lord's grace once again the message got changed on April 29th 2003 that the cards has been ordered & again we waited hoping for the best & finally it did happen - we received our cards just today(May 9th 2003).
Lesson learnt:'Patience & perseverence pays off well'.
So, we wish Good luck for all those waiting for your GC approval.
This forum has been so informative & helpful from the very beginning with all your valuable comments & suggestions.
Thanks & Best wishes to everybody!!!
