Hi all-I guess I am a "newbie" to the AOS forum.... :blush: but I thought I would post in the hope that others in the same stage/process/DORA...whatever might find this helpful.

Mark's AOS interview was yesterday in Dallas and it was really straight forward. They took the entire I-485 packet and the $325 and $70 fees [money orders only]and told us to return for the interview in half an hour as we were accepted into the Rapid Adjustment program there.

The interview was painless....the officer was professional, to-the-point and checked the entire packet bit by bit.

She asked a couple of questions but asked for none of the pictures and evidence I had brought-I basically forced her too look at our wedding pictures ( I thought "I brought them-you are gonna see them") :lol:

Anyway-she said at the end-"OK-name checks to do and you are done".

We do need biometrics for the AOS and she said in about a week we will have an appointment for the following week for those.

Not too bad really.

Sorry not a detailed post, but I did write a review and Mark wrote about it on the Netherlands thread too.

Hope everyone else is doing good!

IK HOU VAN JOU, MARK

Take a large, almost round, rotating sphere about 8000 miles in diameter, surround it with a murky, viscous atmosphere of gases mixed with water vapor, tilt its axis so it wobbles back and forth with respect to a source of heat and light, freeze it at both ends and roast it in the middle, cover most of its surface with liquid that constantly feeds vapor into the atmosphere as the sphere tosses billions of gallons up and down to the rhythmic pulling of a captive satellite and the sun. Then try to predict the conditions of that atmosphere over a small area within a 5 mile radius for a period of one to five days in advance!

Yupp...ours was painless too...we did post our nice experience at the Dallas District Office at N. Stemmons a month ago...got our Biometrics a month after the interview...now waiting pending FBI name checks...

Here's hoping to all those who underwent the DORA interview/biometrics to have their welcome letters soon..

May you have your biometrics soon and the green card as well...Godspeed to all!

Congrats! I would seriously kill to live where that program is!

I think murder qualifies as a crime of moral turpitude. ;) It probably wouldn't help your AOS process at all. But I agree with the sentiment nonetheless. :thumbs:

Conditions Removed! Ten-year green card received 6/24/2009. No more USCIS for a very long time.

LOL ... Would it be considered justified if I have to wait for the New Orleans processing date of May 2005 for my interview?? :innocent:
