we just did our interview yesterday, my husband was on a tourist visa and we did an AOS from that... no probs whatsoever (it does help that he was never out of status and has been using his tourist visa heavily the past 3 years)

anyway, the interviewer didnt even ask a single question about the tourist visa, mostly just about our marriage.

grats!

Had our interview today. We were verbally approved!! The interviewer asked to see our Id's, birth certs, and marriage cert. Wanted to see my 2008 W2's. Showed her our photo album. She meticulously examined the photos.

She asked how we met and about our families. Pretty painless actually. Just waiting for the GC in next few weeks.

Did not stamp passport, but did take I-94 and EAD.

grats!!!

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.

WARNING: Phrases in this post may sound meaner than they were intended to be. Read the Adjudicator's Field Manual from USCIS

Congratulations! Would you please share your interview experience in detail. I am in the same boat and adjusting status from B1/B2. Just done with the Biometrics and waiting for EAD/Interview. Would be of great help to me. Atleast am somewhat relieved to know that B1/B2 AOS applicants are not always given a tough time. I hope I meet the same treatment as yours.

One other thing. I dont understand, why at the interview they take away your EAD and I-94.

Once you have been interviewed, you no longer need the I-94 or EAD, whether approved or denied.
