Norfolk,VA AOS Interview

I could not longer find the local office message bases so I will post this here instead of the link

We have our interview at Norfolk, Virginia

We arrived early and since neither had a watch nor was there a clock inside the place we have no idea what time we were called.

But they will not let you in more than 30 minutes before your interview we sat in the car for a few minutes

Most people were dress casual clothes, a few suits and a few jeans. We were dress like we were going to work in an office, or for an interview for a job

The lady was nice, asked the normal terrorist questions, and how we meet and how I liked peru.

She then asked for a specific item and I did not notice i had the folders backwards and could not find it quick, SO I just gave her all the evidence.

7 months of water, electric, sewer and gas bills

9months of one checking and saving account

4months of another checking and saving account

Medical, dental and life insurance papers

9 months of credit card

2 car titles and insurance papers

Statement for landlord

Current Job Statement

Current Bank statement

I think I am forgetting something but that all I can remember.

We also took a copies of the AOS packet, and a new Affidavit of support but follow the suggestions here of not giving it unless asked for since it lengthens the interview.

We also showed about 100 photos give or take of which they kept none

We were about to give her all the mail that we had received, letters from family and cards from friends and family and she said not need I have enough evidence already to determine that you will be approved.

The interview lady copied our driver licenses and Silvis military dependant ID card

She did not stamp her Passport nor did she keep any of the photos.

She told us it would take her a day or two to determine approval or not (I think it so a supervisor can examine the packet and approve it ) and to expect a letter next week as to if we got approved or not.

Well at least the interview is over now we wait to see how it went. I do not trust anyone until I see Silvia with a green card

Good to hear you had a good interview. Did the officer tell you what recommendation they were going to make? Hope you hear some good news soon.

This must be a new policy for the Washington District to review cases and not give stamps on the date of interview.

Great news--sounds like you are approved.

How long was the wait from filing the AOS packet to interview? Did you apply for EAD and AP?
