Oh, first of all, thanks millions about your warm wishes. I am so sorry for the delay in my reply. I was a bit hectic to prepare for something urgent. For you, I think PR approval means a lot then. It is really surprising to know it took 2.5 years. I am not sure why, but most of people get it easy but some got really trouble and painful situation.Hello friend.
I was an AB nominee applicant. Processing my application took nearly 2.5 years (Oct 2016-Apr 2019). Now that the weather is nice you can go on a road trip with your family to AB's southern border to flagpole, unless you are planning to fly.
I wish you and your family all the best.
I feel we finally have Spring. But after a long weekend, it will get cool again. If I ever got PR approval, I will shortly visit the US and come back then. But for now, I am not positive on my case would get approval. Once again, thank you very much for all your kind replies with helpful information. Blessings.
