Been a minute, Thanks all for the birthday wishes last week. Well I have ended up at the Social Security Admin office to apply for my SSN, Luckily they said they have not received any application from USCIS and advised that the new application will trump that whenever they receive it.

I have been unable to open a bank account nor acquire a drivers license nor even state ID because I do not have a SSN. I am at least happy I now have my name on our rent lease.

Happy new week to everyone, wishing a lot of good news to folks with upcoming interviews.

Hi guys, i have a question.

We are done with the NVC process and my interview date was scheduled for the 7th of june. However the national Visa Center contacted I was saying that our appointment was rescheduled for 29th of June. But a few days ago, the consulate of Casablanca in Morocco called my home phone asking whether or not we would like an earlier date ( june 17th ) and my mother informed them that she cannot make that decision and they told her they would leave it as is. Now my wife emailed them saying she will take the offer but they have not emailed her back. What should i do?
