Finally the magical status: New Card is being Produced
Dear all,
After a long wait my GC has been approved. I benefitted immensely from this forum. Other than technical and factual support, the biggest benefit is the mental support that one gets from the forum, the feeling that I am not alone in this that there are others who've been waiting for equally long duration and how we gotta be just patient and, of course, keep praying.
As others before me have said, my feeling is no different, we all are in this together and we got to support each other and help each other and not just disappear when we receive our GCs.
So here is my turn to give it back to the community through my experience.
EB1C
June 2017 Simultaneously filing of I-140 & 1-485
Case documents returned in July 2017 and me shocked.
Learnt that I-485 cheque was missing, missed by my company
Aug 2017 refiled
Then looooonnnnnngggggg wait with no updates for 14 months
Oct 2018 - received NOID (yes, NOID, not RFE, NOID = Notice of Intent to Deny which is considered worse than RFE, donno if receiving NOID common during GC process)
Responded to NOID
Dec 2018 - I140 approved
Feb 2019 - Case transferred to new location (for all those who get this notice, its a positive step)
Apr 2019 - Interview to be scheduled
May 2019 - Interview completed
Status changed to - "My Case must be Reviewed" immediately after interview
3 days later after interview - Magical status updated - "My new card is being produced" (If it weren't for the forum I'd have not knows what the final words are in this process).
Thanks one, thanks all, for posting your experience and helping each other. Tremendous help
Interview Experience: Just I-485 questions (name, DoB, Pop-Mom name, yes no questions), passport verification - new and old, Employment verification (I-485J, latest payslips, last 2 year tax returns), Medical (as I had not submitted it during original filing) and thats it.
The only thing different from what I learnt on forum was, people keep saying that their IO made them comfortable etc. but mine was Poker faced. Not rude or impolite, just very professional sounding and poker faced.
Questions?
Love,
Your fellow GC applicant who received it by His grace.
