Ok, i am confused now.... I thought those will be the "evidence" to bring to the interview? Oh, well, it's too late for me to include those documents - i've already sent the package. :(

It's not necessary to send proof of bona fide marriage in the AOS packet, only at the interview (if you have an interview). It's totally optional. Sorry my question confused you. (F)

Hey all, just wanted to let you know we did a successful walk-in biometrics appointment today!

Hope everyone has a great day. :)

Congratulations!

Thank you JunkoMartin and Beth and John!

Like AandD sayd it is funny how small piece of paper like I-94 can complicate your life.I-94 is very important proof for your legal entry.(my husbant lost his passport and I-94 in it).He has only copies,but as far as i know they will ask for originals at the intervew.

You do not have to "front load" an AOS application if you are adjusting from a K-1 status. There is absolutely no reason at all to send any evidence of a bona fide marriage with this type of adjustment, because you just spent the past 5-7 months or more proving that you had a bona fide relationship with your fiance(e) to get approved for the K-1 visa. IF you are asked to appear for an interview, that would be the time to take evidence of your marriage. Everyone should have sent a copy of their certified marriage certificate with the AOS package.

agreed.

There is no reason for any fear or apprehension if you did not include all these items included by others that were not requested or required.

Sure, maybe its a good idea, who knows, to include additional documents unsolicited, but it does not mean that is the standard or the benchmark for a properly submitted package.

Looking at everyone's timelines it seems it takes 6-7 days to hear something from them about the NOA1 visa text message or email and to have the check cashed. So we might be hearing something by Friday, Saturday or Monday or Tuesday next week.

We all normally need to go through an interview for AOS approval. Sometimes your case gets sent to CSC for processing and often then you don't need to do an interview, but nobody knows exactly which ones get sent there or why. could be random. anyway, just prepare yourself for an interview and if you guys don't need to do one, then great! :)

I had a random question about the biometrics.

If you choose to do a walk-in earlier than your appointment date, can you do it at any location?

Its funny that you mentioned it cause I was thinking about the same thing yesterday. Can it even be a different state ? Anybody has an answer ?

Also, i noticed you have a similar time-line to mine, have you been able to check your case on uscis ? I got my NOA1 notification on the 21st, but it still doesnt show up on the website.

Hi :)

Yeah I really wanted to know because I'll be visiting my parents in a different city and would love to not have to drive home if I don't have to.

But nope, my case isn't showing up on the USCIS website either... I was hoping that I would be able to check it by today :(
