Biometrics this morning...

I went with my husband this morning for the fun of it. I just love Cleveland, 82 deg and sunny on Tuesday, 32 and freezing wind and snow today. So that made for a fun walk from the parking garage to the Fed Building.

Anyway we were there for an hour and 20 min (got there 20 min early). I wasn't too happy with that, but my husband was (since he was getting off work and getting paid for it). They did ask for his resident card, even though it only mentions to bring that if you are a Naturalization application. Whatever, he had it with him.

Does he still need to carry that around with him all the time (in theory) even though it's expired? We have the letter of extention, but it's not like he'd carry around a letter all the time.

What I have done, is had color photocopies made of my extension letter, permanent resident card and SS card. I carry the copies with me in my purse and the originals are safe at home but easily accessible if need be..

After my husband losing his wallet w/GC, he's said he'll only carry a copy in the future... I wouldn't suggest carrying around a copy of the SS card though.

Good idea. Yeah my husband doesn't carry his greencard around. But copies are a good idea. And I also wouldn't carry around anything with SS #s on it!
