What we were told is its illegal for the dmv to confiscate it at the time of getting a Californian (American) license, because the foreign license doubles as a foreign piece of ID. They said unless you're giving up citizenship to that country (which with a GC we are not) they do not have the authority to touch it.

This is what we thought! Perfetto!

Thanks, CiaoBella :)

In other news, Dave & I are 3/4 the way done with our binder but we had to stop. The 3 inch size binder is too small! We have to get another one for all the items we've saved/accumulated!

Hey guys, has anyone tried to leave and reenter the US with an EAD advance parole card? I'm thinking of going to Niagara Falls for my birthday on July 7th, but am scared they wont let me back in the USA. I know the card is authorization that I can leave the country while my paperwork is filing, but it also says its not guaranteed reentry.

Thank you for any help. :D

Consulate and Local CIS Reviews Section.

For those persons who have already gone through interviews, when you get some time, if not done already can you go into the above section and write a review. When I just started I could not find a review there for my local office, so I thought it would be helpful for others to come. Just ####### bits on how the IOs were, personalities, parking, stuff like that.

Caramelllllllllllllllllllllllllll jest.gif Hope you've been well! Congrats on getting your green card! Not sure how I missed that! The April filers sure are rocking it! Well, everyone except the slow poke ... ME sad.png

So what is this that I hear that if you rant about your case it then magically sees progress? <

You'll be fine, they are just saving the best for last. The rant and calls actually work, go figure...
