Hey guys!

 

Been awhile since I posted on here. I got approved in Montreal in September and successfully entered the US on October 31st, 2016!

I received my Social Security Number (card) but no news on my greencard? What is the current processing time to wait 60-90 days?

 

Hope everyone is doing well and wishing you all the best in 2017!

My wife came across on October 8th and we just got her green card last Friday.  She was approved late September. We paid the fee before crossing if that matters.

Of course I remember you Sanil and Rose. You helped me through this whole journey. I received my greencard last week just before the inauguration. A bittersweet moment as I am seeing on the news that an executive order was placed on greencard holders for 7 targeted countries.

 

My heart breaks for them.
