Today one guy, claiming that he is from FBI, knocked at my door. I got really puzzled by this thinking that it has something to do with my 2FP recently done and results are already sent to CSC 3 weeks ago.
This guy came in and began enquiring my name, address, car info and where I was during memorial weekend etc. Surprisingly, this guy has all my information where I landed first time in the US, my status, all my addresses and contacts from then on, even my car information. So I was wondering what might have happened. I asked him the same then he said we got a call from Ferry people regarding you (friend & myself).
I have to tell you something about what we did during memorial weekend before going any further. During memorial weekend we went to Martha's Vineyard (an island near Boston) in a Ferry. We, 3 people, tried to go on saturday but by the time we reached there Ferry already left so I gathered all the information like timings, whether we need to reserve tickets etc and came back. We, 2 people other guy couldn't make it, went again on the next day and took photos in the Ferry, no where it is written that 'no photographs', visited the island, had a good time and came back on the same day.
Now, this guy from FBI says Ferry people were suspicious about us because on the first day 3 people came enquiring all the details and on the next day only 2 people came and took photos in the Ferry. I explained him the situation clearly saying that we gathered all the information just to make sure that we don't miss it next time and can properly plan our trip.
He asked my friend to show his picture id, employer details and status. When it comes to my turn he asked me whether I am over staying because my h1 expired last year September. He has information till my last H1 but no GC information. I tried to explain him that I applied for GC and now I am in AOS so I am legal. He doesn't seem to understand it that well but finally he said 'I don't care even if you are illegal'.
Nowadays, I really have a hard time explaining my status because I am neither on a visa nor a green card holder. Generally, people ask me whether I have a valid visa or a green card. The answer is 'no' to both. Not many people seem to know about this in between status AOS thing.
He asked me whether we are muslims or go to mosque. We are not, of course. He wanted to see what pictures we have taken and left his business card with us. So we need to call and show him the pictures we have taken as soon as they are ready.
Holy crap!!! I can't ask anybody any details, I can't enjoy my vacation and I can't even take photos. What kind of democracy is it? The reason for this posting is, this might happen to anyone so be careful when you are going out. Sometimes, seemingly innocuous things turn out to be troublesome so please refrain from getting into any sort of trouble.
Will there be any negative implications to my GC regarding this? Your comments are welcome.
Thanks,
Sri
