Well, I got notified today that my I130 (Spousal visa) is on the way out to me.
(After 2 1/2 years or so of struggling with it.)

Once we have our hands on it and have the tax return we can apply for the work permit/green card which should take no longer than four months.



I cannot tell you all how thrilled we both are, so of course, I had to go ahead and announce it here, where everyone has been so kind and supportive!
