May AOS Filers

Had my interview today and was in and out in about 20 minutes! Wonderful.

Was sworn in with my husband at his desk. The officer asked only one question... "So you met at X place how did that happen?"

He then went through my i-485 application to make sure all the information was correct then asked for a copy of our marriage certificate since it got misplaced.

We bought oodles of evidence with us just in case - like joint bank statements, photos, insurance, phone bills etc and he didn't ask to see a thing.

Completely painless and easy. Said I should receive my Green Card in 30 days but I'm sure it will be much sooner.

YAY! xxxx

wow,that quick? congratulations!now u just have to wait for green card!

Congratulations! We almost have the same timeline, except that I haven't heard anything about my EAD/AP yet and my AOS interview is still on the 26th. What I am waiting for right now is a job interview set at 10AM, so I'm browsing websites to keep me from being anxious about it.

WOW!!! Congratulations! Our local USCIS Office is Seattle, and now I really wish it was Spokane. Ha ha... The Seattle office didn't even let me do a walk-in Biometrics .

I'm so glad to see May filers starting to get approvals. This is awesome!!!
