I'm glad that things are going well for almost everyone.

We called USCIS and advised us to set an appointment infopass. Goodness gracious.. I guess this means more waiting. But they said they will give me a "temporary" evidence. I hope that temporary thing is good enough for Social Security and a driver's license.

I'm a member of another immigration forum and there is a couple of us that are about to start this process but no one who has already been through it. So what can I expect when we go.
