Rating:  | Review Topic: Adjustment of Status
Scheduled the interview on the Dallas district office website using their INFOPASS service. This apparently is part of the pilot program to do adjustment of status in 90 days or less - ours took 10 weeks. Service here was probably not as good as embassy in Bogota as far as the helpfulness of the people. Less respectful treatment. The security was tighter that an airport (I should know - I work at the airport). They would not let us bring our cell phones inside even turned off!!! They called us to the window for initial contact. The official literature I had read said specifically that they accept personal checks. When we got to the window they said "Sorry we don't and you have 15 minutes to come up with a $400 cashiers check or money order or you lose this appointment" !!!!!!! So I raced to a local convenience store and used my ATM card to get a money order and raced back. Then we waited maybe an hour. Interview was probably 10 minutes or so. General questions about the validity our relationship (how did you meet, etc.) which struck me funny because of the pile of photos, phone bills, airline tickets we had submitted for the K1 previously - besides the fact that we were now married and living together! Anyway it was over quickly and we were on our way...
