File I-140 的時候:
Postdoc using STEM-OPT.
171 citations, 14 papers/book chapters
Rec letter: 1 dependent, 5 independent

-----------------------------


I-140 approval 等了11個月

I-485 第一次面試的時間剛好排在我回去過農曆年的時間....
去 Baltimore 的 infopass 改時間.

I-485 第二次面試的時間下大雪, field office 沒開 @#$$#^#%$&

寫信去要求避開我去開會的時間

四月搬到 San Francisco

2018/5/24 從 SF 飛回 Baltimore 面試 (沒改地址,因為不想 case 轉來轉去)
遇到人超好的immigration officer. 面試大概十五分鐘結束, 她也現場幫我改地址
面試隔天 on-line case status 變成 card being produced.
Approval notice 跟綠卡都是寄到新的地址!

File I-140/485 的時候都還是寄紙本.
現在改成 on-line submission 不知道有沒有比較快.....


總之, 總算拿到了~~~~~~


ps. 綠卡是十年有效ㄝ~
