Hey Everyone!



We got approved in Atlanta today. Everything went really well, but anyways I wanted to share my experience with all of you:



Left from Alabama at 7:30 AM. Took us about Two hours to get there.



The DO is a 3 story building with the USCIS logo and name... impressive and yet scary.



We entered they building at 11:23 AM and went through the security (metal detector and x-rays) Make sure you empty your pockets!
