Bottom line-we were approved!!! :dance::dance:

I won't do a huge post, if you want more info you can PM me.

Our interview was scheduled for 11am, we arrived at 10:30am.

We were taken in at 1:00pm-yes 2.5 hours later!! Get there early!

I have an entire bookbag all prepared with everything.

The guy told us he had not had time to review our case as they were so busy. He went through our file right in front of us.

He checked for "checks"(he said "good the checks have been done")

He checked for my vacc. suppliment and my medical to be in the file.

He looked at our I864 in our file.

He asked me when I was born, my motherse first name and he asked my husband what day we got married.

That was it. Nothing more. It lasted maybe 5 minutes before he told us we were approved.

He took my EAD and AP, and told me my card would be in the mail within 2 weeks.

He asked for nothing-sweet mother all my preparations for nothing. Ieven told him we had a new I864 if he wanted it and he said no it was fine, our I864 was perfect.

Note to all-we got an RFE for our I864 for 2005 taxes and still he said it was perfect.

I got my paper that says I'm approved and that was that. He told us about lifting conditions, and we were on our way.

The longest part was the 2.5 hour wait and man o man what a wait it was.

So, that's all. We're very excited but it's been a long day and I've had too many celebratory glassses of wine so it is time for bed.

Good luck to everyone else and again, thank you whole heartedly to everyone who has been a help to me and husband personally, and to everyone overall who spend time here helping others. It makes a difference.

Thank you

:)
