Question about the interview

I have our interview in a couple of weeks and worrid about one thing. I'm Canadian and here on a TN visa. I got my first visa June 2006 and met my husband October 2006. In May 2007 we moved in together and I renewed my visa at the border. A few months later I changed jobs and went back to the border for another TN. That job lasted 6 months, I was laid off last March and applied for another TN this past April. For the 3 past TNs I got at the border my husband (then boyfriend) was with me, when the NAFTA officier asked what his relationship was with me I told him he was my boyfriend. He had no problem with this information and I got my TN each time no problem.

We got married this past September, but have been engaged for a year before that so when I went for my last TN last April we were engaged. My question is what should I tell them at my interview if they ask when we got engaged? If I say we got engaged September 2007 and they see the last time I applied for a TN was April 2008 that would show I had immigration intent and I'm worried they will deny my AOS. Would it be better to say instead that we got engaged after April for our wedding in September - would they believe that?

Well, did you really have an immigration intent at that time??? You could have gone various ways strting from moving back to Canada with your now husband or filing K1 or whatever else.
