I-485 interview

[Liam and Kara 6]

Can someone tell me why some cases require an I-485 interview and others do not? We sent off our adjustment of status in February. We have been staying in touch with our local senator's office as to the status of this.. This is the email that we received today...

I just spoke to the National Benefits Center who told me that TODAY the California Service Center is sending back your file to the NBC. The CSC processes 485s for K1 visa holders. But apparently the officer reviewing your case determined they could not approve the 485 based on the information received and in your file, and now an interview will be required.

Your case is in transit now to the NBC. Once there, it will then be in line to be interview ready, which then your file will be sent to Memphis USCIS (the local USCIS district office for TN) where you will complete your I-485 interview in person in Memphis, TN. Then, a final determination will be made by that officer.

I don't understant what's going on? I thought we've already been through everything and the rest was just paperwork. We are married and have been living our lives happy as a family and now there's still a chance they can deny him and send him back? We've always been 100% honest and he already passed the London interview etc? I'm confused?

Can someone please give me some helpful advise hopefully to ease our minds?

Thanks,

Kara

What are some of the reasons an I-485 interview would be required?

This is better asked in the K-1 forum, or adjusting from family based visa one... but from what I understand K-1 AOS have a chance of requiring an interview. It doesn't mean your case is bad, just that you didn't have enough evidence to satisfy whoever looked at it. Just gather more evidence and bring it to your interview. There is probably more information about what they want in the letter that will come to you. Don't worry too much I suspect there are others in the K-1 adjusting forum who are in the same boat. Good luck!
