Guys
If anyone got their Passport stamping after 485 approval done in San Bernandino done, could you please answer:

1. Is the courtesy copy of the 485 approval notice sufficient enough, or do they require the original which goes to the attorney?
2. Planing to take the EAD/Advance Parole/I-94s along with the passport.

Do i have to take any thing else like my previous H-1s, last 3 years IRS certified tax docs, last 3 pay stubs ...
Me and my wife have the appointment tommorrow. So please respond as early as possible.
 
Denied stamping service at SBD as my address zipcode is out of area

IFiledOct2002, You really got lucky!!
We went to San Bernandino and reported at 10.30 a.m per our appt.
Number got called at 11.25 a.m
The IIO immediately caught from the zipcode of the approval letter that it is an out of area zipcode and called her supervisor, who told us that that specific IIO was the only one who is being alert and catching out-of-area guys. They denied service and when i said, it doesnt say anything on the website that they will not serve out of area guys in other areas, the supervisor 'sort of' forced an appt in LA office (covers my zipcode region), stamped the letter with her red stamp and said that i can get it done on monday at LA office ..but just now i checked it back to see that the appt letter says of the type 'Information Questions' ..so i took another appt on my wife's name for jan 7 anyways ..
Shall post back how it goes on monday.

But folks, beware!! If you dont live in San Bernandino area and are trying to go there for stamping, you ARE taking a chance and are not guaranteed of service.
 
Stamping completed at the LA office ..27th Dec

Appointment was at 2.00.
There was a queue outside the LA office by 1.45 PM. Got in by 2.00.
As the computers crashed in the morning there was a huge backlog from the morning's session. Numbers got called at 3.30. The IIO took the Passports, 485 approval letter, EADs and the photos and called back by 3.50 PM. Got back the stamped passports and a 'Congratulations, Welcome to US. Plastic card will be mailed in 6-12 months'. Out by 4.00 PM.
