Advance parole
We went to Hartford INS today for applying our advance parole. We got it approved tday itself. But after reaching home we noticed that the parole visa they given us is not in INS watermark seal paper. It is in a ordinary paper, with INS seal on it. will it be a problem? Did anybody else got advance parole from local office?

Status check at local office thro Infopass....
Hi All,
Greetings...
I am posting this for a friend.
His case got transferred to Washington in Aug-2004. He wasn't sure what to do to verify his current status. I suggested that he setup an infopass appointment to visit the local office.....
He went to the local office yesterday to check his status and was told that he should get his interview letter in 30 to 60 days.
He was also told that his Namecheck is completed and looks fine.
He is concerned if this is a standard response or if he could rely on this information update.
Would it help if he approached the Senator's office?
Thanks a lot for your time and inputs,
V!

If he has already been to the local office to ask the status, then he can wait for another two weeks and see. Currently the local office is sending out interview letters for cases prior to June 2004( a guess). Your friend should get his interview letter soon. The DC office has really picked up speed on sending interview letters. Wait and watch, thats what I would advice him to do.

Wow. Thats great. Enjoy your freedom. In my case we told the officer the same story that interview letter for my wife was not received. A senior officer came in and adviced that the officer is not prepped with handling your wife's case as the file wasn't kept ready before the interview process. But they will try to schedule her soon and get me going. Thats how I got approved and my wife is still waiting. Looks like in your case they mailed the interview letter, thats how they had both the files ready when you walked in.
Good to know your pleasant experience at the local office. By the way, was the officer tall and had wheatish skin and an African American?

half success on our interviewhttp://boards.immigrationportal.com/newreply.php?do=newr
My wife and I went for interview today and met the "young African lady officer." The procedure was pretty the same as other cases. Finger printing, oath, questions on what work, when last entered USA (I didn't remeber the year, so she had to correct that later), commited crimes, etc. She checked all documents very carefully. Then she found that my wife's medical exam document says she didn't get vacinated since she was pregnent at that time. So, she approved my case only. My wife needs to submit a new medical exam in one month. Then, they will send approval letter. So, our waiting time is extended a little more and needs extra money to be donated to doctors who already make big money. At least, I didn't need to waste money for my medical exam due to advice from my attorney and guys here.
Thanks to all those who share information which made me less anxious in the long waiting journey. (If you are one of those who just read other's information but never share yours (minimally, your RD, TD, etc), please come forward and help others, too.) Without your kind sharing your information, it could be more stressful.
I heard that the officer that I met works Mon. - Thr. only for interviewing every 30 min. and do some other work on Friday. I don't know how many officers are doing interviews, but actually so many interviews are being done every week.
What I did for checking the status were: asking CIS through liaison (through attorney) and Senator George Allen (Emily).
My case status on web has never been updated as of today after it says it was transferred on blar blar.
Best wishes to those who are waiting for interview letters and have a best hope since it seems that it is getting better (my attorney said so).

Got approval today
My interview was scheduel for 9:45am. Got into the interview room at about 9:30 and my attorney showed up around 9:45. My company is paying for the attorney. We were called in around 10:45, a nice middle age African American male.
Took fingerprints, collected the documents and filed the copies, asked the usual questions. It was very slow and it took more than half an hour for this and finally said I am approving yoru application. Got it stamped.
I asked about my wife's case and gave him the letter to request to postpone her interview as she is in India now. He said he doesn't have hre case today and does not have access to scheduling. My attorney is probably taking this up as they can make some money that way.
Anyway I am happy now and waiting for my wife's interview letter.
