Thanks for the quick reply. I live abroad, don't have a physical US address, and would be travelling for the interview process. That said, I would believe I can decide where to file. Due to the fact that I would have to travel with the child, grandmother, mother, etc, doing 1 trip only would be a great cost saver.

Hello guys! Wondering if anyone has had experience with two separate applications and USCIS consolidating it into 1 application to save time. I applied for my first son in May 2022 - Miami office - wait time of 36 months. Didn't know I could check wait times at the time. Now my second son was born, and am debating applying via Miami (still 36 months) or via Puerto Rico (5 months). Ideally I could do Miami in one shot, but over the phone no guidelines were provided and they recommended I talk to a lawyer...
