#2 I'll believe it when I see the green card. We've been waiting for the FBI name check for over two and a half years. This is freakin' ridiculous. I'm certain they still won't manage to issue the thing until we have to pay for yet another employment authorization, new driver's license, and all the other associated fees that we ring up every year because they never, ever get any of the documents we pay for issued on time (it's lovely to be unemployed for a few weeks courtesy of the USCIS, trust me....) |
