Can someone explain how Infopass works? I have the general gist of it from reading it on the site, but I'm not sure I understand it... will it be beneficial for people who have already filed, or only for new applications?

Re: Expansion of InfoPass
This is great news for all the people who didn't have this service available before. The last time I went to the Miami office, there were only about 50 people waiting round the back at 8.30am, whereas before Infopass, there used to be around 300, so the change is obvious and VERY dramatic!!!
The only thing I'm wondering is that will people be able to book appointments over the phone if they don't have internet access? When I spoke with a rep at the "helpline", I was told (probably incorrectly) that I was no longer able to schedule an appointment over the phone if Infopass is available. Where does that leave the people who don't have use of the internet?

Infopass is available in Miami, Texas..New York and more. It seems like they are making it available in the "busiest" local offices first.. am I right?

If you don't have a computer, then go the library or an internet cafe or what not.

I have no idea. However, it does allow you to go down and check on cases. Also, you will be able to make appointment for certain ministerial tasks as I-89 processing and passport stamping after approval of an I-751.
