Yes, guys. I made it. I had my passport stamped today. It was a very exhausting trip. I took the greyhound bus from New York City to Buffalo. The building is located in the heart of downtown Buffalo. You won´t miss it. I arrived in Buffalo at 6:00AM. I had to look for coffee after 8 gruelling hours on the bus. Sadly there was no open diners nor delis. After waiting for another hour I finally had my caffein fixed. I immediately proceeded into the building. When I arrived I met another guy who is also securing his visa. At exactly 8:00 AM we were picked up by a Security Lady. She gave us individual ID (badge). We followed her to the 30th floor. It was a quick process. Those applying for other visas were separated from us (permanent residents). We waited individually to forward our passports and photos. We were given each a card that bears our individual numbers. We were then asked to come back at 1:30 pm.
1:30 PM
We were again picked up by the Security lady from the lobby then followed her back to the 30th floor. Then the moment of truth---our immigrant visas. The issuance was very quick. Less than a minute. When I saw the visa stamped on my passport I felt a surge of happiness. After 23 months I finally got my greatest aspiration.
Good luck to all.
