On 9:00am today I got the magic e-mail saying approval notice sent for our I-485 cases. My spouse, child and I were all approved. My heart almost halt, what a big releif after waiting for 3.5 years. Here is my time line:

Got letter from FBI ref First Lady: 4/2007 - Name check in process (So disappointed)

Second FP: 5/2007 (Code 1, no LUD after that)

I would thank this forum for the valuable info and encouragement I got during the painful journey.Such info helps me to make a lot of big decisions especially in the later stage waiting for NC. I almost wanted to file WOM after the infopass but decided to wait and see after I read this forum and immgration portal.
I wish all of you good luck and recieve your GC soon.
