This is the most hassle-free and wonderful way to get your GC stamped
on your passport.
I reached there early around 12.15 pm for my 1-2 pm appointment.
(Don\'t go early, go like 10 minutes before 1, it is of no use going there and
getting bored and wasting your time off work. If only I had known better, I
would have saved myself an hour. Well, atleast when my husband goes,
he knows better than to land there way ahead of time). They dont start
on this before 1 anyways...
At 1.05 a lady came and took our approval notices(for people who had
ADIT processing appointments). Then she asked us to follow her into
a room where she and two other officers would work with us.
She asked us to sit down(on the chairs in the room). Since I had gone
early, I got my turn rightaway. It took not more than 7 minutes for the
officer to take my EAD, AP, approval notice. He took my signature,
finger print and then stamped my passport, wrote down the A#, validity
date and gave me back my passport.
I have no idea why people harass themselves by landing up at the INS
at unearthly hours, when the approval has already come through and
they can take this simple appointment and get it done in 15 minutes.
Hope this helps and Ciba, could you post it on your page so that ppl
know that there is an option for PR Stamping by appointment.
Ciba, please add me to the Plastic card waiting list. My husband hasnt
received his approval yet.
Thanks,
Apsa
