Yes! Congratulations! That is one of the sweetest emails you will ever get. Life changing.

You still have some work to do but it moves at a quicker pace. For me, the USCIS approval felt like the top of the mountain. Then it became downhill; with pitfalls and risks, but still downhill.

Congratulations once again.
