Hey Folks,

We aren't at the AOS stage yet but I have one thing playing on my mind I wonder if you guys here could answer for me.

You see my dad is really involved with helping with my fiance's and I's "visa journey" (for lack of better expressions). He's got alot of immigration books written by various lawyers and theres alot of talk in them about the AOS interview. In the back of all of them are 100 sample questions (most recent is 2006 edition). But what I'm confused about is they stress it's like a big test on american history, but when I look at the sample questions here on vj on AOS.....they are similar to the K-1 interview questions...relationship etc how you met. Wheras these books are saying its all about knowing america. Or perhaps I'm misunderstanding and this "test of american history" interview is for naturalision not AOS. I'm confused.

Love hurts

When you live an ocean away

When you change your sleep schedule to catch a few more moments

When you really need to be held and you have to imagine whilst your partner describes it

When you constantly refresh the USCIS website to see if you're getting any closer

Love Loves

When it repays you with the love of your life

When God finally answered your biggest prayer

When you can live life again in the real world but still have that eternal connection

When you wake up for to the beginning of the rest of your life with the person you fought so hard for

When you love somebody that much

You'll do anything

Hi Fiona,

You are correct, sounds like the questions in back of the books about America are questions for (N-400) Citizenship test (interview) and not for marriage based AOS whereas the ones on VJ are for the most part marriage based AOS questions...
