Hey everyone!

I had my interview yesterday in Seattle. It was crazy, I let my papers fall, I forgot the name of our witnesses...but all was really nice, the officer approved me putting a big red stamp on my process : APPROVED. He didn't say anything about review the process, he said just for to wait for to receive the card in home.

Good luck to everyone!

Congratulations guys! I was looking for your post! What a great news!!! :D

Cdn in Wa, lucky you that you are getting the 10 year green card!

Today, I received the permanent resident card. I am utterly excited!

It came in my hubby's name (thank you IO for changing it at our interview), so I can finally carry his sweet name. :)

I am going to stay up tonight so I can surprise my hubby with it, he has been waiting for it with excitement also! He actually had been checking the USCIS website more than me lol.

Oh, and finally after three years not being able to leave the country (F-1 entry visa expired), I can go up to the Canadian border...and finally be on a different soil than american. :)

The other interviewees on 10-17-08 in Seattle, your card is right around the corner. I found it funny we all got approved the same day. :)

Congratulations! So weird that after months of worry, it's over so quickly. I'm keeping watch on my mailbox and opening every piece of mail :lol:

Congratulations to all of those who have heard good news recently. I am still waiting to receive GC or any update on AOS since biometrics, although the lady IO said that I was approved.

I plan on going to Canada tomorrow, and I posted about this as a separate thread (topic). Please, let me know if you have any advice (after reading the separate thread you will see that my issue is not returning to U.S. but actually entering Canada).

Thanks everyone!

I tried. Wish I could be more help. Some days I just wave my Cdn passport at them and they wave me through. I've rarely crossed with a foreign national (even my husband - as we were advised it could lead to problems).

Congrats silverfai! :dance:

And good luck at your interview!
