Among several awesome folks on this forum, I would like to specially thank @Aceman and Q for encouraging (and empathizing with all 2012 filers) during our long journey!!

I hope and pray that all 2012 filers get their GCs at the earliest.

Adios but happy to take any questions.

Congratulations!!! Long time coming ! Can't imagine the torture but glad it is in the rear view mirror now

Congratulations to prabakarb, k7419 and Chilli19. Good to see long timers getting greened. Enjoy the freedom.

I am just curious on the process and asking questions so answers can help others who want to know.

All,

I received the below email indicating that card is being produced. However my wife's case has not received it yet. Hopefully she will get it soon.
*** Update 8/24 Wife's email notification came first thing in the mornig on next day.

On August 23, 2021, we ordered your new card for Receipt Number MSC219054****, and will mail it to the address you gave us. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

From what I have seen here, looks like it takes a week to get the GC in hand. I hope so!

I am thankful but there is no sense of joy... this GC journey has left a very bad taste..... just want to get it over with!

Well, I could have said, I did tell you it's round the corner. Glad it's over with for one more person. Good luck on future endeavors.

Congrats all who got greened in the past week. Good to see many old timers getting the good news. Hoping every known member of this forum and anyone who filed and waited gets greened by this fiscal!
