From L1 petition denial to GC approval, it has been a long journey but as they say “A journey of Thousand miles begins with a single step”.

@Raj veer Congratulations 🎊 EB1A or EB1C Your post says L1 petition denied, did you move to ead?

@Hello World Thank You. Yes it has been long wait. Initially I was expecting to get the Green card in 3 months, as many of my friends got it but then it got retrogressed and rest is history.

@Regular guy Thank You. I was surprised too. Frankly speaking, I thought they won’t approve mine so soon, specially when there are so many applications getting ported with prior priority dates and mine was current by just 1 day :) but thanks to God. Jai Bhole.

@Raj veer Did you receive your unrestricted SSN after 485 approval.
Raj veerAug 21, 2024
@S K No, I did not. But received the restricted one for my son, which I am surprised, why not unrestricted one.
