Visiting the Federal Building


Yesterday, Reiko and I went to the Federal Building in Cincinnati to get her Biometrics test for the Green Card and Temp Working Visa. No, it's not a test to see if she knew the metrics system (which I assume she would pass, having lived in metric Japan and all). Rather, it involved some light paperwork, fingerprinting, then a picture which perhaps will end up on the Green Card / Working Visa. Or at least we hope so! The last pic we used for the app had a funny yellow wall.

All in all, the process was pretty damn smooth. We were in and out in less than 20 minutes, and only saw one other individual leaving as we entered. Not a whole lot of activity on a Wednesday afternoon! Beats standing in line all day!

Oh, and the security to get in the building? Much nicer than an airport... I could bring in my water and leave my shoes on! Funny how that seems like a privilege nowadays...
