Hi everyone,

I am getting everything ready for our interview on July 12. I am wondering about one thing, do we need to bring an updated affidavit of support? On NOA it says affidavit of support, unless already submitted, which we did, but I have read that some people were explicitly asked for it, as well as specific tax returns. Could this be because they didn't submit it in the first place??

Also out interview letter says 8:30, does anyone know how accurate this time is? That is will we wait 30 min, or 5 hours?

Thanks for any input.

Alex

Take everything with you to the interview. No one on this site is the interviewer and dont know what the interviewer may want that day.

Also, no specific time can be given also to many variables to consider. I would take a safe guess that you will need to take atlease half the day off.

Good Luck.

I understand that no one on this site is the interviewer, however I was looking to hear experiences that people had in the past, since no all of the guidelines are accurate. So if you haven't had you interview yet, I appreciate you "taking a guess" at what I need, but as it turns out it is of little help...

I wish you all the best in yout journey.

We had our interview yesterday at Chicago, we brought an updated I-864. The interviewer did not ask to see it, only asked for our 2005 joint tax return, which wasn't ready when we submitted I-485 back in January. Our case is pretty straightforward, but who's to say all interviewer are alike.

We wondered the same thing before the interview, but since I-864 is really easy to fill out, we just did it.

Hope this helps
