AOS Interview! Can I get denied?

[2bay 0]

Hi everybody,

im reading in this Forum since over an year now, i love the openess and the kindness of the people. Everybody is helpful only with writing down there personell experience in the whole immigration process.

My case is quiet difficult, and thats why i have trouble to find all the answers to my questions, but maybe somebody here can relate to my situation and help me out with some advise.

Im a turkish citizen with a permanent citizenship in germany (meaning im born and raised in germany, but posses a turkish passport). I enterred the states with a tourist visa in august 2006. After 3months i flew to the bahamas with my (fiance, at this time) and when we back enterred the states i got my stay extened for six months. The officers at the bahamian airport simply stamped in my passport. I also left the states during that time to get back to germany for 14days in november 2006. In july 2007 we married in san diego california. We started the AOS process. well till here everything is quiet normal. Unfortunately i left the states in november 2007 again, and this was the biggest mistake in the whole process. Even just a few moths after marriage we already had bad fights and i had till that time suffered 2miscarriages i was emotionally exhausted and i left without thinking twice. As if it wasnt already a complicated case -I also have a criminal record in germany with two listings....shoplifting. Plus when i applied for the tourist visa i did not answered with yes when they asked for criminal history. Well, very embarrasing now., but unfortunately i cant change the hands of time.

Now im since November 2007 back in Germany, and my husband comes every three moths to visit me. Our immigrant attorney in san diego, forwarded my papers to NVC (4weeks ago)and now im waiting for my interview date. I also have to expect that a waiver interview will be neccessary. So i will have to face two interviews. Im so scared that they deny me. On top of everything im pregnant again :-) I really hope i can go back to the states as soon as possible.

Is anybody out there who can tell me what to expect?

Thanks in advance to everybody who took their time to read my post.

You are more likely to have an answer in the AOS forum.

Although in your case since you came out of the US, your AOS application started in the US in 2007 is no longer valid as far as I know.

What visa did you apply for then? K3, CR-1?

You should be honest at the interview, you are already married and if they see that you really do care about each other you are more likely to be approved.

This is a spousal visa issue, and more than likely will either be dealing with a waiver, or a denial.

AOS was abandoned long ago/

Thank you all for your answers,

yes, it is a K3 Visa and i received my inetrview date for january the 5th. Our lawyer also started to get everything prepared for a upcoming waiver. It is kind of dicouraging to know that i will expect a denial. But im still glad to know about it that way i wont be shocked and dissapointed too much once im at that point.

Im not sure if anybody can tell me, if there is a list of doctors(medical exam) online available, i have my interview in frankfurt and i only have 2 1/2weeks to my interview date, christmas and new years takes me a lot of days. So i have to get prepared and have not much time left.

And also, i would like to know how essential is it that my spouse will attend on the interview? Our lawyer said it wouldnt be neccessary but im not sure if that isnt a bit of a understatement?

Thanks to all,
