Yesterday, 10/19/2000, we got our passport stamped. It is really a very simple process. We were there early in the morning, around 5.45 - 6.00 am, so that we could get out early. There could be around 25 people ahead of us. The doors opened at 7.45am. We went upstairs and got our ticket number around 8.00am. The lady asked us for
1. the ORIGINAL 485 approval letter.
2. the advance parole forms
3. all the EADs
4. two photographs
5. and the passport
That\'s it. She stapled everything and we waited for our number. We got our number around 8.30am. We produced the package to the IIO in the counter. She filled some form and asked us to sign front and back of the form. Then she took the finger print of the index finger on the front and back of the form. At that time, we gave her a paper with the change of address. She wrote the change of address on the form. Then she stamped our passport and explained that we could use it for travel and employment for one year. And we should expect our cards in about 6 months. That\'s it and we were out before 9.00 am. Free at last on the 10th year in US.
Any questions, let me know.
Bye and good luck to everybody waiting.
