Just received our AOS interview appt

[ose_n_me 0]

Got our AOS interview November 18..now we start the crazy process of compiling our evidence. We will have no problem getting it all together, its just the anxiety of dealing with yet another interview where we are required to prove things that are just natural to us. Its almost degrading and humiliating having to share our personal life with strangers. But we gotta do what we gotta do...right?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any one had any off-the-wall experiences with questions, or what they asked for, that is different from what they say they will be needing. I have the list...but i thought i read a while back that someone posted they had been asked for different documentation, and some odd questions. Anyone remember that post? Just wanna start preparing for the inquisition as soon as possible..LOL

BTW...i dont post much on here, but i do read...and wish all the new peeps much luck and success with their Visajourneys. Many of us silently send prayers knowing inside we went thru the same ups and downs u are feeling. Good Luck to everyone and may Godspeed be with you every step of the way.

God Bless

I dont remember the post you are asking about but having been through AOS already, I do know how it works.

We took wedding pics, marriage cert, bills, copy of our lease, bank account info, health ins info...anything that showed us as a married couple...

they looked at pics and a few documents... and then the questions came...he was not nice and very blunt to us. At one point he turned to me and said "are you sure you want this because if you dont now is the time to say so and I will put him on a plane back to where he came from, you dont know how many calls I get in a day from USC saying the GC came and now he\she is gone...what can you do....NOTHING" to which I replied "yes sir I am sure"

His demeanor then changed, he told us my husband need to get his varcerela vacination and there was a place a few blocks away from there, for us to bring the recipt and the shot record back and he would push us through that day.

He explained that once the GC came use that for employers and not the EAD.

It is thier job to not be nice and to make sure they are doing the right thing for the USC. Just keep that in mind.

you've come this far by faith, dont sweat it. use that same faith and determination and you'll be just fine. and besides you strike me as an alpha female (one who dont know the meaning defeat or retreat, a lady who always lands on her feet) you will handle this with ease.

Best of luck. Haven't even started the process yet so can't be much of help - other than my prayers.

Best wishes on the last part of your visa journey. I am hoping to cruise through AOS without an interview like many others have.

Its already done , I was just waiting for you to catch up

Yes, we have had our disagreement/s, but there comes a time when adults must learn to agree to disagree based upon our realities and experiences are vastly different and so are our interpretations of those events. Moving on, to assist you in getting to know me, here are some things you should keep in mind ...are you ready of this....wait for it, wait for it, here you gooooooo.........

To know me is to respect me (or atleast fake it ).

I wont steer anyone wrong and if I do, charge it to my head and not my heart.

I don't say anything once that I can't say twice.

What you see is what you get.

And for the most part, typically; Uno dont give a phuq (about things she have no control over)

Those are mantras that I have adopted and they serve me pretty well...most of the time

As far as being yo' sista in faith, already there

I am wise enough to know that even tho my "ball and chain" was yoking me to death, I can still get joy from others celebrations and triumphs and learn from their mistakes and accomplishments.

I may not like a lot of things/people, but I respect all of Gods creations. I have found that when I am at my lowest, thats when God is at his highest. So just know that you and many others are in my prayers and I am cheering on the sidelines (even though I don't post for most accomplishments, I do celebrate them with you all in the shadows).

So yes, all things accepted and respected

p.s. maybe where you come from its the "short bus", but where I come from its the "shawt buss"

Just wanted to say good luck to you and your husband during the interview. One last step to the greencard!!

Well...I used to know it as the shawt bus...but then peeps started confusing it with the "shot" bus and depending which side of town u from, they either thought it was the party bus (with tequila shots flowin) or the bus that got hit wit a drive-by! hahahahahahahahaha...so hence the name "small" bus. LMAO

But for VJ purposes we will hereby call it the "shawt" bus!!!

Uno, you really need to consider a career in COMEDY!

There are so many times that I sit at this computer cracking-up with laughter from your posts. How do you put such animation into your words?

Thank you for brightening up my days and nights without even knowing it.

and

Ose n Me, I pray that all goes well with your AOS process. I also enjoy reading your story.

Ose n me - my husband and I had an AOS interview. It went very well. We took all of the items P mentioned earlier, and had no problems what so ever. I have read where others mentioned that they were split apart during the interview. While I've also read where couples were not seperated. Most importantly, be sure to have all of your documentations, and you will be fine.
