here it comes... :angry:

I tried the first taste of people's cruelty and intolerance in this country. That was bitter and humiliating:(

I had that biometrics appointment in hammond today at 10 a.m. The first thing, there was no sign showing where the building is. We were running out of time and very frustrated. Finally someone very kind explained to us, that it was behind an abandoned and partly demolished "Kmart" building. We finally found it, came in. Cold and impolite person threw paperwork that I had to file out right next to me. "Sit and wait" he said.

then it was my time to get in and give all what i had to the officer, he was polite enough as to keep completely silent and indifferent. He took all the fingerprints so many times, doing and redoing it, so i started to watch tv while he was struggling with it. When everything was done, he asked me for my ID..I gave him the ID and the information(I was going to change my first and last name so I basically filled I-485 and other papers with my new name, giving my original name as a maiden. Nobody seemed to care). Until now.

All of a sudden right after I explained my situation some lady heard it, ran to us, grabbed my paperwork and started shouting that I have no right whatsoever to change my name like this. I tried to explain that I'm married and there are no restrictions as long as you can explain the situation and show necessary paperwork. But she didn't care..she was like crazy, she took my papers and scratched them completely. She was yelling that there were enough problem in his country so they do not want to deal with some immigrants who was faking(!!!) their identity. I was devastated. United States are the last country I expected to be yelled at. And it happened. She called USCIS herself, changed my name to what I had before marriage. Shouted at my husband for a while(he is a USC!) that we were stupid and she didn't want to discuss anything. They made me go thru the fingerprints stuff again and pressured me to put some bizarre signature with my maiden name instead of what I had in other paper and then threw me out of there...like an animal..worse then animal..

What is wrong with these ppl???

p.s. on the photo for EAD I'm crying. I wonder if the same picture goes to green card-that would be funny :(:cry:

I hope you filled in your yellow comments card afterwards.

Sorry you had such a bad experience. I have to say apart from the hard to find building, my experience was utterly the opposite of yours, the people were polite and friendly.

I'm sorry you had a bad experience.

The name on your AOS documents must match those on the form you fill out at your biometrics appointment so the files can match up. Did you do that? (I'm not sure from your post).

Sorry, it sounded vagely..I just was SO frustrated.

And YES!I filed all the documents for USCIS with the desired name. I brought the forms, the receipts and sertificates stating that I'm willing to use that particular name from now and on. :(

She saw it, but instead she scratch everything with her pen, all my receipts, yelled at me, and refused to futher process my information until I give her the signiture she wants me to write. I obeyed..I couldn't stand any longer such an attitude. Humiliating, rasism and total intolerance. :cry::protest:

dr_lha:I'm glad that you had a positive experience. And yes, i filled out the form, but guess who has the key to that box? :unsure:

And I did!!!! :crying:

but she didn't care..ehh..anyway, I have scheduled the infopass in a week or so. Me and my husband will try to talk abt it with an immigration officer. Cuz it was just BAD way to treat ppl...

We will see what we can do and also check if she actually submitted my fingerprints instead of stating that I didn't show up. Who knows what was on her mind.

thanx everybody for being so caring! I really appreciate it! :blush:
