Greened 💚 Approved While Overseas
Finally my turn. I hope this post helps someone like this community has helped me. Leave comment if you have any questions.
PD: Dec 22, 2022
ROW. SRC. Field Office. No interview. No RFE.
PD became current on April 2025.
My green card was approved while I was overseas with an emergency advance parole. I was abroad for 6 weeks due to a family emergency and returned to US yesterday morning (Aug. 8, 2025) through SEA. While I was abroad, I got a USPS informed delivery email that USCIS sent me something. I checked the case status and saw that my card was mailed to me.
Hold on to it, everyone. I was tempted to give up so many times but I'm glad I sticked with it. The end is near.
