I live in Philly, but our case was sent to California

our biometrics went well-even though there was a VERY rude woman at the front desk. We showed up a week early(by mistake) and they took his prints anyway...which was great. All in all-it was an ok experience

Hi people,

I was wondering if anyone has had their AOS interview in the Philly DO recently. Any upcoming ones, other than Leney's and mine? I would really appreciate it you could post your experience. Thanks! :)

Take a look at the bottom of this page for my review from late 2006.

http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=2591

I don't know if this is "Recent" enough for you, but USCIS haven't made any major changes to their procedures since then so the review should still be valid.

Hey there Bobby, My wife's case like Irish Girls hubby was transfered to CSC. We had a few info pass appoinments in the last few days and the lady that's there is really helpful. Can't say the same for the people at the other counters. The supervisor or whoever it is that takes things upstairs was helpful too.

Best of luck!

Just thought I'd resurrect this thread. I've recently found out, there is parking right near the federal building in Philly, but have not found the prices. We aren't going to spend the night down there, but we are meeting my grandmother's best friend, who knows her way around Philly, and she's going to help us get there.

We're leaving at 4am for our 9:40 and 10:10 appointments.

I'm starting to get nervous :P I think we have all of our stuff together, I have a cute little accordion folder with lovely heather on it lol I know it's 11 days away for my hubby and son, and 9 days for Bobby - so any words of advice or encouragement are greatly appreciated.
