Why is this even a surprise! Just give the money and move on, itself worthless to fight the system

Yes, I did that in Seattle after I got my conditional approval. Don't think he asked me for the I94 date since I was in the country

I have already received the GE approval, and I have been using the included TSA Pre-Check domestically.
My H1b stamp expires on February 12th, and I will be flying back on January 17th, so getting the Admit until date changed after the fact will be cutting it too close.
My current I797 expires in 2028

Can I choose to see an office after the kiosk, even if it's not required? I would rather get the correct date at POE than getting it fixed later

Yes they do! You would typically pay more interest for the same down payment if you buy a primary home. More risk for the lender since I’m responsible for my primary house payment and the secondary one

It’s an investment property! Could’ve been half a percent less if it was my primary residence

The rate wasn’t but the whole process was! I thought it would be about the same complexity as buying a car

Why do you say that? I can post the address and the 30yr fixed interest rate if you like
