Finally its over.
We stamped our passports using the courtesy copies in Santa Ana. Our copies gave the LA
downtown address for stamping but we had no problems in getting passport stamped at the Santa Ana
office. We reached there at 8:10 AM and completed the stamping process by 9:00AM. There is a cafetaria
on the 7th floor where one can get refreshments. The officer was very nice and congratulated us
It was a long and painful ordeal
Thanks to everyone on this board. Special thanks to Igaters during the name change crisis.
