Just thought I would give you guys an update and share the good news.
As of Dec 6th the CEAC portal is showing issued!!! I have not received an email yet but the in the portal it says my visa is in final processing and should be mailed to me within the next 10 days! 😀
What a journey, been waiting since 2019. I am so thankful it is coming to an end and I can move on from this chapter and start my married life with my partner.
To everyone else waiting, stay positive, i know its a struggle, and its not fair, but it will happen for you too!
