Hey everyone.

So a letter came through yesterday saying my permanent resident status had been approved, and my card was on the way! I applied for the AOS and EAD in February, so I'm very happy to be getting my AOS now...I did wait AGES for my K1 visa though--far longer than others I've seen--so I feel this balances it out. What I did find strange is that I never had an interview for my AOS. Perhaps because I filed for it so soon after entering the US and interview in London was taken as sufficient?

Anyway, I'm glad to have my AOS now as our friend is getting married in Morocco later in the year and now I have no visa hassles in going. Woo hoo!

Chris

Quite a number of straight-forward K-1 AOS applications have been approved without an interview over the last 2 to 2 1/2 years, usually after a transfer to California. Congratulations.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

congrats!!

I just sent in the paperwork. As far as I'm aware, for the AOS we didn't require any of the supporting evidence that the initial K-1 application required or that the lifting of conditions will require in the future. Just a copy of the marriage certificate and some forms. Oh, and money. Lots of money :-(

And thanks to everyone for the congratulations. The worst part for Amye and I is that in three or four years we're going to have to go through this all again when we move over to Britain...yawn!
