hey guys

juhuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

we had our appointment at 10.15 and they called us in at 11.15.....to wait and saw all wich came after us went in before us was really hard....

but we had a really nice lady...she went with us thruw the forms and took my I94...she asked how we met and took some pictures and some bills to the case

that was it...we were out after 20 minits..it was really relaxt and she made fun that she is hungry and wanna go to lunch hehe

so what u guys think???

she said she cant approve me now because one guy who stands over here has to look thruw the case..i will get a message in 60 days

[SonoranSongbird 3]

Sounds like you will get your approval in a few days, Goldfee. Congratulations!

This is becoming riduculous.! Some December filers are already getting interviews in March and we have had nothing since a touch on 1-12-09. I am asking my Senator to look into it and hopefully something will move our case along.

Congrats to all the approvals so far!

[Goldfee111 3]

i hope so..smile

so whats going on with sandersann...i hope he is fine too

You're not alone, they're giving me the run-around, so I'll let it sit for another 2 weeks then start with the senator's office.

Got approved !!!! Thanks you Jesus

I got there (Dallas Office in Irving) around 2 pm for the 2:15 interview

we waited maybe 1 hour 45 minutes before being called

the lady was very friendly and professional

out the bat she told us that the interview should last around 15 minutes (she was not lying)

went through the forms we had submitted, with presentation of both passports, Driver's licenses, SS cards, EAD (she did not ask for any other document)

she asked the standard questions that were already on the I 485 (that was the longuest part of the interview) plus

the spouse's name, spouse's parents names and location, date and place of birth of the spouse

she asked about my current job

then she asked about our relationship (that was very short)

she asked us to choose two pics of the wedding (one with my wife's parents) and give it to her (she did not even look at the album)

she asked us how we meet, where and when we got married

then that was it

without me asking she said "congratulations you are approved!"

she gave me the Welcome letter for new US resident

and the info for the removal of the conditional status in 2 years minus 90 days

we thanked her, got out (almost everyone else was already gone) and I took my wife to Rafain a Brazillian Steakhouse in Dallas (now my wallet feels so much lighter but so does my heart)

P.S. I also did not know that the interviewers ahd law degrees, I was expecting some underpaid clerk

she did not stamp my passport or take my EAD, she however took my I 94

a side note

My I485 never showed up online or anywhere else where I could check

My I 130 has never been update since 9/9/2008

if you are still waiting for your interview or decision, do not despair good things will happen

trust in God, He always delivers (with a bonus)

Goldfee

I think you are good to go

your interview does not appear to be that different of mine (except that she did not make jokes (she smilled though and di not asked for comon bills or anything like that))

wait for your "surprise" in the mail in the comming weeks

good job the end is here for you

[Goldfee111 3]

hey sandersann..congratulation to u

but can u explain me why u got approved and they told u imidiatly and me not?the other girl from mexico got also in the interview the approval??

i do not understand that..are some officers are able and some not??

[JeremyR 8]

Congratulations to you both

i do not understand that..are some officers are able and some not??

I believe that 'new' officers are required to check it over with their boss... Possibly just an occasional retraining or performance appraisal thing too. I wouldn't worry about it. If they took your I-94, that's officially A Good Thing

[Goldfee111 3]

jeremy she took the i94 before she already startet the interview lol

she asked for my passport and put it out..i thought uhhh wow fast lol

mh she was not so old i guess end 20..maybe thats why she couldnt approve us...i prayed that i got the older ladys or guys there hehe but she was also a really nice person from missisippi..

Goldfee,

the lady who interviewed me also took my I 94 right at the beginning

she looked like she knew what she was doing and had done it for a long time (she was in her late thirties early forties)

I tend to think that it is like what Jeremy says as it heavily depends on who you get

what is encouraging in your case is that she did not point out that there was something wrong with your case

she asked a minimum of questions and did not issue a RFE or ask for additional evidence

as such, I beleive that she was not authorized to give the final approval and needs some higher up to sign on this, something that appears to be merely a formality

the point of the interview being to establish the legitimacy of the relationship,, when that is in doubt they ask a lot of questions and ask for a lot of evidence

this surely does not appear to be your case

Like I said, in two and three weeks, you will open your mail and have a broad smile

[Goldfee111 3]

hehe thanks for ur words sander

what wonders me was that she said the I 130 is already approved....that she let out in the conversation..because she said to my husband so u applied for I 485 and I 130 ..the 130 is allready approved..and i looked and thought ahhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaa what means that now lol..but i didnt ask her...

and i gave her a lot of evidence and she asked not for more..i asked if all is ok and she said all looked good but her boss has to look over the case too

i guess also that they allready now before they interview if they approve or if they have to look more exactly on a case because they have any doubts.....i think when they took in the start the I94 the case is clear
