That's it - we've made it to Star Status now :). My case number also has a *.

Anyway, here's my report from the Biometrics Appt in Boston. It was at 1pm on a Friday. Short and sweet. I showed up only 5 min early, thinking they would make a big fuss about it, but there was absolutely no line. Barely half a dozen people in the entire waiting area. In and out within half an hour!!!

I can't wait for my interview now. Oh, and don't forget to pick up a copy of your civic questions brochure when you get to you bio appt.

Cheers,

BostonChick

My cheque was cashed on the 5th of June. I thought USPS had lost my package as the website stated it was last processed at Dulles Airport!! Oh well, not a biggy, not in a hurry anyways,lol

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

Hi,

I filed my application 30th May 2008 to Vermont Service Center. Which is 90 days before green card 5 years complition. They cashed check on 4th June 2008. Still waiting for notice.

I have one question for early filing. I appliled 90 days before, will they start processing now or will wait till my 5 years complete? Will get finger print stuff soon or after 3 months?

Thanks for any help.

Here's some info for us recent filers:

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced today it has centralized initial processing of all applications for naturalization (Form-400) at its National Benefits Center in Missouri

http://www.uscis.gov/files/article/update_n400_060508.pdf

Cax&JL, my appl. number was written on my check. Need to add WSC*00 to make a 13-digit number. If you are trying to check your status online and it doesn't work, don't panic, many people don't get their number to work and they go through their process just fine.

How is consolidating all the applications through Missouri going to improve efficiency? If anything I'd think that it would slow the process down!!??

I just tried the number on the back of my check and it didn't work. But on mine, it doesn't look like "WSC", it looks like "ESC". I am at VSC, is that normal?
