Celebrations & Thanks

I have good news to share.

My status just changed to "New Card is Being Produced".

I can barely believe it.

Congrats! God willing many more to come for many others!

[imdeng]

Great news imdeng. Congratulations and enjoy the moment while it lasts.

When did you get RFE, and what all did you do for the medical?

Thanks Sri. My last medical RFE was 2018 for Medical and Supp-J - submitted in Oct 2018 - so it was just about to expire. I also had an RFE for BC in 2019.

Thanks Q. I am probably one the oldest-tenure members here except for like you and Spec. You all have been such a pillar of strength for me and so many others. Thank You!

It has been some journey. Came to the country in June 2003, three graduate degrees between the two of us, filed PERM in 2009, EAD/AP in the glorious days of 2012, RFEs in 2014, 2016, 2018, major panic about BC in the middle, one job change and accompanying I-485J madness, three apartments, two houses, cutest boy-girl twins you will ever see! Finally, after 17 years in the country, we have the legal right to stay in the country - even if we lost our jobs.

Right now I am missing all the old timers in the forum who are no longer active here - folks like Kanmani, Veni, Teddy...

No doubt imdeng ... miss the oldfolks like Kanmani, nishanth, soggadu and many more... this forum has been helpful and specially few great folks who made good impact on our lifes..specially Q, Spec and many more

imdeng,

I'm so pleased to hear this news!!

As Q said, let yourself revel in the moment, at least for a little bit.

Although some time a ago now, I still remember the feeling of hearing about the approval.

Thanks for all your contributions to the forum. I hope they continue.

Spec - you never told us about your own approval. Don't mean to intrude your privacy. But quite a belated congratulations are in the offing for you! Congrats. People often think you and I are the same people and I just want to say there is one and only Spectator! And it's not me.

@Spec - you are an inspiration for others to contribute wherever and whenever they can. And as you said without details, numbers and transparency from USCIS it is all hope than play.

Don't remember Kanmani? She is probably one of the best legal minds on this forum. She could find references and split meaning like nobody. Haven't see her in a while though.

[tomhagen]

Imdeng hearty Congratulations.. a well deserved one. I am silent observer here. I read this thread throughly and fan of couple of great minds. You are one among them. My PD is 2011 and two days back filed 485. Hopefully I will out of the woods in FY 21 😊

[4WatItsWorth]

Congratulations, Imdeng! Though, I don’t post much, I have been here long enough to recognize all the old timers. Folks like you have the PD in the vicinity that of mine and it feels really nice to see those folks get greened because it’s been.. a long time waiting. Really happy for you internet stranger!
