biometrics done, documents mailed off...
well that was a bit of an ordeal.
I'm lucky to live near an Application Support Centre run by USCIS, but it was still a bit of a drive and I'd worked myself into a bit of a state by the time I got there. Rationally, I know I've done everything correctly and there's no reason (that I know of) I should be denied, but it's hard not to worry.
The people at the ASC did seem a bit confused by my dual citizenship at first, but they were able to confirm my information and collect my biometrics. All good.
And then she tried to send me on my way.
But wait! What about the document I printed that specifically says it has to be signed at my appointment by an officer?
Well, she refused. Pointed me to the exit. I tried again. Got directed to the exit again. Figured there wasn't much to be gained by arguing with an officer in a government office, so I left.
It took less than 10 minutes all in all, and then I proceeded to spend about 40 minutes sitting in the car frantically trying to work out if my application is doomed without this signature.
Anyway. According to just about every single reddit post on the topic posted in the last 5 years (and yes I read them all), USCIS won't even touch those extra documents, despite the fact the text explicitly says it needs to be signed and submitted with the application. 🤷🏻♀️
So with nothing else left to do, I drove all the way back to [redacted], stumbled into my local shipping centre and — somewhat hysterically — presented my pile of unsigned papers, passports, and shipping labels to be packed up and posted to New York.
And now...
we wait.
