My first lawyer(man) almost ruined my life and he didn't help me at all. Just a big mouth. 😅
Thanks to my current attorney (She) who helped me tremendously.
I was surprise to learn my field office is in Atlanta cause i no longer live there. I moved out from ATL 2 years ago and now I'm in Texas. Anyways I'm glad that I was approved without interview.
I want to thank you all for sharing your experiences. Special Kudos to all the leaders of this forum. God bless yall and your family. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
