Finally finished!

ChunMei's 10-year green card came in the mail last Saturday, and she's thrilled. And so am I.

 

We'd filed in early October and she was complaining about filing so late (I was waiting for some copies of supporting documentation.) She wanted to have her card before New Year. I'd told her that that would probably not happen.

 

In early November she went in for biometrics, and we heard nothing after that. So I had to listen to her constant grumbling about the long wait, and maybe it would take one year, and why didn't I call and ask why she didn't have it yet, etc, etc, etc...

 

So about 10 days ago we got the letter saying she'd been approved. Of course the letter has the usual "will receive your new card on 30 to 60 days" disclaimer in it, so now she's grumbling about not getting it until April. So when the card showed up in Saturday's mail...

 

Now all she talks about is how she is a lucky lady, and how she got her green card very quickly in only 4 months, and how all of her friends waited 6 months, and so on.

 

Funny how quickly attitudes can change.

My wife got her 10 card in the mail two weeks after we arrived in America. I was bringing the letter with the card up the steps to give her and ....she snatched it out of my hand, ran down the steps, and I've never seen her since. Luckily her son has been easy to raise and single parenthood hasn't been any challenge.

Congrats, Nick and Chunmei. I remember I waited for 9 months for my 10-year green card. You guys are lucky.
