Hi all,

My green card will expires by late February. I sent out my ROC package today, and now playing the waiting game...LoL. I know this might be late since I sent the package out already (should in case there is something I missed out) but I think getting suggestions here may prepare me well in advance in case of a possible RFE. I have learned a lot from this from and I have used one of the cover letter templates I found here in arranging my thoughts. I am just scared as I feel like I haven't or didn't send enough. Please find below my cover letter.
