:lol: And I didn't receive a welcome letter at all! Haha. But yeah, it's quite common for people to get multiple welcome letters, and 2 definitely seems to be the magic number. You shuold receive your GC very soon now...maybe tomorrow? It seems they arrive very quickly after one another from what I've seen other people say.

I got five Welcome to the US letters -- Jerry and I figure that USCIS has to spend the fees we send in somewhere, might as well be for postage and stationery. ;)
