It's the first time ever that I want someone to take my money! Hahaha. I'm 21 right now. Do you have a lawyer? I'm confused about how our paperwork is processed. Is it as a unit? Aka do we get our permit and biometrics at the same time as our parent? Do we go to the same interview? Or do we have separate interviews?
This is so nerve wracking for me... but again, seeing someone else benefiting from CSPA makes me feel tons better.
Good luck with your pre-med and med endeavors. I was a premed once and I know too well the kind of expectations and lifestyles that are involved  |
I got the letter for my biometrics appointment on October 15th, 3 days after I received my receipt letter. I am now scheduled to go for fingerprinting along with the rest of my family on the 28th of October. After that we'll get our work permits, approx. two weeks. I have heard that we will have to go to the interview together as well. And yes the paperwork goes in together as a unit, that's how we did ours anyway. My approach from the beginning has been to not get too excited until I have the work permit in my hands.
It's funny you mention the money thing. I had my mom freaking out and checking on our account everyday to see if it had been taken out. We have been pretty lucky in our case, the money was taken out a week after we submitted our applications. Maybe it depends on where you live( i live in queens/longisland). Good luck and don't be too nervous it will all work out
