Well, the nearly two year visa journey is done now. My husband got his green card today. The interview wasn't difficult at all. I brought an interpreter because I was nervous that my Spanish was not so good, but the interview lady made the interpreter wait outside. She wanted to see how me and my husband interacted. I showed her photos, answered questions about where we lived and she made copies of our wedding photos and that was it. Really easy, really quick and painless. I had all my stuff together too so I guess that helped. Really happened that this took place and happy I don't really have to deal with immigration too much anymore.

So what happene now? Is there someting else we have to do after the green card before I put all these legal matters besides me?

Now you have a year and approximately 9 months to rest from the USCIS - then it's time to file for Removal of Conditions - filing period starts 90 days before the 2nd year anniversary of the Green Card. Check out the Removal of Conditions forum when the time approaches.

Make sure to keep all documentation, bills, invoices, mail, junk mail, pictures, flight itineraries, insurance paperwork, doctors papers with both your names so you can have it prepared for ROC.
