I don't think I'll be in Lakewood before noon (and if I will, not sure if I'll be available). Was thinking about afternoon hours.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I actually spent (wasted?) some time at the SA consulate today.

I spotted a historic relic on the wall there:



I also find it unique that people show up there with suitcases. Seems like people were bumped off a flight or didn't have documents and needed consular services.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

That speaks to how long people think wait times are at consulates ;)

I ended up being seen about an hour after my appointment time. All I needed was a UPS envelope for my stuff.
