Hi all,

My I-485 was approved last week (NIW EB2, RD 04/2002, FP 06/2003) and I am ready to go to New Orleans USCIS center to do passport stamping this week.

Is there anyone who has done passport stamping in New Orleans? Please share your experience. Do I need to make an appointment before I go? Please tell me what I should do in order to make everything smooth. Thank you very much!

hi my EXP at New Orleans

Hi
I got my approval on 30th aug 2004 went for stamping on 7th sep 2004 and got the physical cards on 20th sep 2004.

Everything went smooth and the whole thing finshed in about 30 min.

even though they made a small mistake for me they have put the stamp in my passport wrong with my wife's details and she got stamped with mine.

no appointment required.

Hope this will help you!!
