Theoretical question about EAD and AOS
Hi all!
I have been wondering about a theoretical question (hmmm- well, my timeline will tell you that we have not even got to the point of NOA1 ;-) ...) regarding the whole AOS and EAD procedure... As I will (hopefully) end up living in the Boston area, would I have to file for AOS and EAD in Boston or Vermont? Does anyone have experience in dealing with the Boston BCIS center, btw? Heard a couple of horror stories about VSC so far- so it is time for Boston to catch up!
Good luck to all of you!

What horror stories about Vermont? No you will not be using them for adjustment of status. You will be using the Boston BCIS. At the beginning of this forum the top post (by me) contains URLS for various experience pages. Go to the one for AOS experiences for interview experiences in Boston. And the AOS filing experience page for filing experiences in Boston.

As procedures now stand -- you file in your local BCIS district office where the AOS is filed. If you are living in Massachussets -- then you file in Boston. If you live in Vermont, then your local BCIS district is Portland, Maine. If you live in New Hampshire, you under the Boston District, but there is a sub-office in Manchester. If you live in Rhode Island, you are again under Boston, but there is a sub-office in Providence.
As you will note, there is NO local district office in Vermont. So there is no office in Vermont at which you can file.
However, BCIS is moving over to centralized filing of AOS via Missouri Service Center. You may have to file by mail there by the time you file for AOS.
