Stats Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Not sure I counted the leap year(s) correctly, however the saga is finally over. Today we received a 10 year LPR GC in the mail. As a very early member of this board, I have been appalled at the number of other members progressing towards citizenship while we remained in limbo. I harbored no ill feelings about those; simply frustration at being at the mercy of CIS and their lack of concern about a languishing case due to a name-check. Suing CIS and winning certainly got their attention (see http://candleforlove.com/forums/index.php?...=29984&hl=). On Friday. 4/11, I got an email from the internal CIS contact and said that the prints had cleared and the case would be adjudicated ASAP. On Monday, 4/14 I got an email that the case was approved and the Welcome Letter was mailed. On Tuesday, I received an email that GC production was ordered. Today, a 10 year GC was received. I want to express my appreciation for the support of the CFL members who knew me and my issue. While not a frequent poster, I have strived to add quality posts as I thought fit. I want to express my appreciation to PJ, Don, and the others that I don't see anymore. The early days were somewhat trying, however I am happy to see that CFL has successfully grown from a few hundred members to thousands. Thanks to all and good luck in the future. Link to comment

georgeandli Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Stats, I echo your feelings. I remember when I first found CFL and some of your posts. I strive to uphold your attitude on the posting even though I tend to ramble on at times. I can only say Congrats and way too long coming for ya! Link to comment
pkfops Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Yep....... I ask my wife, "you got your green card?" It's hard to adjust, check the mailbox, check the email.I don't have to do that everyday now. What to do now? It's like coming home after the army; be cool and try to adjust. The fight is over until you apply for USC (if wanted ) Time to enjoy. Link to comment

warpedbored Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Congrats Stats! I wonder if the time accrued could be counted from the date of her AOS interview approval and not the date she received the green card. Link to comment
