    can I make stamping appointment in regional offices at my choice

    Proof of residence I don't think you need a "Proof of residence" for stamping. I believe they just want to make sure that they will send the card to the correct address. When I did my stamping, the officer just asked if the address they have on file is current but didn't ask me to show any...

    Arlington Office INFOPASS

    This infopass thing is really cool. We went for our passport stamping today at Arlington and the whole process took 10 minutes. Also, we had only one appointment with us. The officer did ask us if we both had an appointment each but didn't seem to bother that we only had one appointment. I guess...

    Immigration.Reply@dhs.gov. Please e-mail to expedite the I 485 process

    Send copies to VSC, Whitehouse.. I think it's a great idea to send CERTIFIED mail to VSC, President , Howard Dean (or whoever is the most promising DEMOCRATIC presidential candidate) and anyone who can make a difference. Also, maybe this has already been discussed (please ignore it if that's...

    Disadvantages of not doing concurrent filing

    hope it goes smooth with me Karaya, sorry to hear that you had to go thru this ordeal. I guess it depends on the POE and the immigration officer. I will be flying back to Washington Dulles. Hopefully, it will be better there.

    Itin #

    Use No. 7 tamilpayyan, Use No. 7 in this case. That's what my CPA asked me to use. I have already got ITIN nos. for my parents. Also, according to my CPA, depending on the case, one may get upto $900 back from IRS for each parent and of course he knows that I am on H-1 cheers :)

    April/May/June, 03 concurrent (140/485) filers - READ ONLY

    Call BCIS I was in the same boat last year. My HR manager was on leave for a month and that's what I told the lady at INS. She asked for some basic info (name, company name etc) and then gave me the EAC no. I guess I was lucky as it's in their right to turn down such a request.
