AOS Interview - documents to bring

[Aubrey 10]

For our AOS interview upcoming, it says we need originals and copies of all the documents submitted, and a completed Aff. of S. unless already submitted. Now, I don't want to be unprepared, so... I'll ask.

Do I need to bring additional evidence related to the Affidavit or Support (e.g. most current pay stubs from myself and out joint sponsor)? Is this something that can be asked for? It is problematic for me to bring this, since our joint sponsor lives in another state, and I have a different job than I did when we applied (and this one is temporary).

Also, for eligibility proof: is a joint lease, bank account, our marriage certificate, and wedding album sufficient?

Bumping this... please folks, I could really use some help!

To be entirely honest...I'm not sure... Personally, I would be prepared for anything... Double-check to make sure that even if the subject comes up, your income is still sufficient with your new job. If it is, I wouldn't really worry about it... but I would take evidence of your new income in case they have done their research. If it's not sufficient, find a co-sponsor quick and take a completed Affidavit just in case you are asked to provide more proof of support. Extra proof never hurt anybody.

Hi Aubrey - We had our interview on 30 November 2009 in Centennial (Denver), CO. And wow, it was far less involved than it could have been. Like you, we wanted to be fullly prepared, so we went armed with hundreds of photocopied docs (everything that we had previously submitted, plus copies of all recently obtained documents - EAD, Social Security Card, Driving Licence etc).

But the immigration officer simply looked at my passport, took my original I-94 and then took the copies I made of my EAD, Advanced Parole, Driver's Licence and Social Security card.

He checked a few basic details - names, address, dates of birth, date and port of entry, date of marriage, names of parents - but that was it. No in depth questions about our relationship.

He then asked to see evidence of our relationship - we gave him A FEW copies (really just a few) of our wedding photos, then copies of our joint bank statements and the jointly named car insurance certificate and he was happy. Based on that, it would seem your lease, bank account and wedding photos should do just fine.

We had some of Annette's recent pay slips, but he really wasn't interested - he was happy with the original affadavit and the supporting documentation that we filed in August.

He thanked us and told us that the Green Card was approved and I'd receive it within 30 days. That was it.

Good luck!

Thank you, that eases my mind!
