The immigration officer who interviewed my husband (and then administered oath) was so kind to him. We are really grateful for the warm official welcome to my (now OUR!) country.

Do not recommend, they deport documented immigrants who are in the country on an asylum visa! Maya Gonzales was illegally arrested today on an expired deportation order from 2008, she had already been arrested per the order and willingly went back to Mexico and LEGALLY obtained an asylum visa. She went in to file for her green card today and was subsequently arrested even though during her residency in the USA she hasn't committed any crimes and deserves citizenship! Now she will possibly be deported either tomorrow or sometime next week and this is a HUGE injustice and a complete violation of her refugee status! DO BETTER IOWA!!!

I will say that this is a very inefficient place and workers. My mom registered to get the citizenship like everyone else. I helped her with the form N-400 as well as seeing her doctor for form N-648, because she can't speak nor learn English due to the decline in memorizing. However, the medical form wasn't accepted which means I cannot be her interpreter. And instead of noticing that through a mail letter, phone call, email, text message, they decided to do none of that. Me and my mom have been preparing for the interview for about a month since the appointment notice came, we studied very hard everyday, and we were nervous but prepared for the interview. On the interview day, my mom had a headache and stomachache from an appendix operation plus she was very anxious the day before her "test". We came in the building, got into an officer's office, did all that swearing and all we got is the announcement that my mom can't do the interview in her first language because the N-648 wasn't accepted, which they had months since the day we turned her documents in to let us know, but they ended up do nothing but let us know at the last second. They could've done this in a better way so it wouldn't waste my school day, my mom's workday, or even their time. They could've done things in a better way.

Field officers are very friendly and amicable. Security at the gate is also fast and respectable.

Went in for a biometric appt for form N565, extremely easy process. Be sure to follow all commands and answer all questions by the security check-in officers. The appt itself took maybe 5 minutes. Very easy-going staff. Now time to wait for processing, which I've heard takes months.. we shall see!
