| AOS interviews in Boston? |

I second Number 6 post. Wife and I went to the Boston field office for our appointment last Tuesday. everything well rather smoothly and we were approved on the spot. The IO were extremely friendly and only asked to see my passport and my wife's driver's license. She asked me all the standard questions about whether or not I am a terrorist, communist, here to overthrow the government, have been involved in prostitution, etc... Every now and then we would talk about the weather, the IO family's cat, and other humorous things.
The conversation and interaction with the IO was really friendly and professional at the same time. We spent overall 30 minutes in the IO's office more than half of which were spent chatting and 30 minutes waiting to get called in the IO's office. At the end, the IO told us that our application was "dandy", approved it and gave us a letter of approval.
The IO asked me to surrender my EAD card, but did not have me on me and asked me to promise to not let anyone else use it and mail it them as I did not need it anymore. Overall, it was a great experience which started on February 25, 2008 and ended on Tuesday 16 June 2008. We did it without lawyer by the way... We even asked the IO about the usefulness of a lawyer for such a process and told us that we don't unless you have been arrested say seven times...
To get back to your question, Boston is known to be one of the fastest office in processing time in the country. It took us altogether 4 months to get the green card. The experience and outcome is not bad for the some over thousands bucks charged in processing fees. |
