Hi all

I dont know why i took all the stuff they asked me take cause the only thing they asked for was our noa2's our 2005 tax return and my EAD's. They did not ask any questions about our life together they asked us the questions on the AOS for ie are you going to commit terrorisim etc etc. They stamped our passports and said the green card will be here in 3 weeks.

I had just one problem I took my son for biometrics 2 weeks ago but they did not do it right they only took finger prints not a picture. so we went to the ASC and waited then he was told to take his lip ring out but he could not as he only had it done last week so he has to go back in 3 weeks when it is healed to have his photo taken but the stamp in the passport last for a year anyhow.

She basically told us at the start we were approved.

She also said that Atlanta are trying out a new system which is automated and a lot easier, it makes things so much better for them an the immigrant.

We were only in there for 10 mins!

So happy now that us done for 2 years!
