Met my now-wife online in July 2012 and we stayed long distance for almost seven years through several visits about every 1/2 year, first being in December 2013. I started filing the K1 in (I believe) April 2018 and traveled to the US on K1 on May 28, 2019. We married in June 2019 and, thanks to some delays from Covid, got my Employment Authorization Mid-2020 and my conditional green card in August 2020. After two years, I filed for removal of conditions in June 2022. Finally, after over 6 1/2 years since the beginning of the story, I received my unconditional Green Card October 1st, 2024!
