Hey fellow waiver-fillers you can add me to your time line

Filling date 2008-09-09

NOA 2008-09-20

BIO 2008-10-16

RFE 2009-05-09

RFE Sent back 2009-06-02

And now waiting on Approval or Interview

I was married for over a year and got divorced in little over a year. We got married in April right after she filled her taxes and got Separated right when we had to file out taxes together.My ex refused to file jointly for that year hoping that she is gonna get more money if she files on her own and claim me as a dependent so i had to file my taxes on my own "Married filing separately" putting a note that she might try to claim me as a dependent on her own taxes. Now my RFE was asking for taxes and W`2s also lease agreement which we never had and other financial documents . My lawyer sent them all i had ( bank statements, copy of checks signed by both of us insurance bills with both of our names on it, health insurance with me as a beneficiary, bills) And also we included a letter from my landlord stating that we both lived together at that address on a verbal agreement and that we didn't had any signed lease and I also included affidavits from friends and family. I hope that what i submitted is going to be enough and that i will get approved without interview.

Hi guys,

I just joined this forum and I am glad to see we waiver filers have a thread. Well, I got divorced back in October of 2008 and then filed for a waiver based on "bonafide marriage" through a lawyer around the end of November 2008. USCIS sent me my extension letter and my case Receipt date or NOA date was December 6th of 2008.

Following other people's experiences and all, I anticipated that I would definitely be called in for an interview but that it would probably take about a year before I heard back from USCIS.

However, and to God's glory, I got a letter from USCIS around May 25th, stating that I should come in for an interview for the removal of my conditional status on June 10th (3 days from now!!!).

So guys, I am going in on wednesday with nothing but prayer and faith and I ask that you all remember me in your prayers. Last year was an extremely tough year and things have been really tough since the divorce ( I am sure you can all relate). They say a divorce is like a death, and I have come to experience that but I'm doing much better than I used to thanks be to God.

I will keep you all posted, my appointment time is 8am in the morning here in the Atlanta office. Even my lawyer was extremely shocked at how fast VSC responded to my case bcos he said the waiver situations usually take longer.

Hello People:

I had my interview this morning. Here is a quick summary of my situation. We were married back in April of 2006, got my temporary resident approval (temporary greencard) approved February of 2007. We got divorced October of 2008 and I then filed through a lawyer, removal of conditions based on "marriage in good faith" and got my NOA in December 06, 2008. All was sent to VSC.

I recieved my letter asking me to come in for an interview May 22nd 2009 for 8am June 10th (today).

I got there around 7:20am and waited for my lawyer who met up with me around 7:45am on the third floor of the Atlanta DO.

Then at 8:10am the immigration officer calls out my name, looks at my lawyer and was like "Oh lord its you again" (Jokingly)

We sat in her office, she confirmed my name, date of birth, address, when we were married, my ex-wife's full name, and her date of birth. She also asked for my phone number which I had given her the old one and then told her I had a new number.

She looked at me and was like "how you goin' give me your old number what if I wanted to call you" and we all laughed.

She then goes "ok, now tell me what happened that lead to y'alls divorce because to be honest I havent even read your 3 page sworn summary.....and in a nutshell please, no details!"

So I tried to narrate as much as possible. Then she looks at me and goes..."Alright what the heck, I'll believe you." Then she stamps my documents and gives me a letter stating my conditions had been lifted.

For the next 10-15 minutes the conversation in her office was about her delayed retirement and how she cant wait to get the "heck outta this place!" (lol) She then told my lawyer "tell your dad I said hello." And I was asking my lawyer about the delay in the production of the cards, which he attested to because of the upgrade in equipment. He now turns to the immigration officer and asked her about this delay issue and her response....."Oh there is a delay? They didnt inform us." We laughed at her.

And that was it. My "actual" interview took less than 10 minutes, the rest was spent on side talk.

To God be the glory because it has been a very rough year in my life.

I say just go in with faith and when your marriage is genuine, there is nothing to fear and always remember....you dont have to memorize the truth.

Hope this helps

If you would consider "old" waiver filer story, here's my successful Removal of Condition case. Mine was filed wayback Aug2006 and received RFE Jan07 and granted my unconditional GC Feb12 2007 without an interview. I filed for my N400 Sep08 and officially became a USC Mar12, 2009. My N400 interview didn't go ok, there was a lot of this & that & whatsoever (my file from AOS-N400 application was in front of me scrutinized by the IO) but in the end it was approved. During the time my I-751 was pending, I remarried, had children and eventually had MORE peaceful and happy life. Goodluck to all of you going tru filing of waivers for I-751..

Info line and was xfered to another lady, cos I wanted to make sure they have my correct address in system ,should there be any rfe or interview notice. Anyways the lady said to hold, verified my info and said I was already approved since. 8th of june. She said my. i751 was approved and I said are u sure, she said u don't believe me, congratulations your i751 has been approved and then I asked her the exact date again, she said on the 8th and nothing is been mailed to me yet. She said u better believe it u have been approved and I am telling you the truth. Wow. I am done for now. That's 3 months and 2 weeks. Filed waiver. God is good.
