:whistle: To all the people in Visa Journey :crying:

I guess its a mixture of joy and tears for me. Tears because I never thought the feeling of actually holding my Green card would ever come... when you are waiting for something it seems it is forever hanging in the Balance. Now I can sigh and say thank God it is here !

Thank you for all the people who contributed their wonderful insights, suggestions and prayers through this awesome website and forum.

God bless you all.
