Interviews are standard if you are adjusting from a non-family based visa (i.e. student/visitor/business visas). If you are adjusting from a family based visa (like the K-1, etc.), then sometimes you get lucky and do not have to have another interview (since you would have had one to get that family based visa). :thumbs:

Those who are adjusting status through K1 (fiance then married to USC) oftentimes do not go through interview because they have already been through consular interview before they came in the country. I myself a K1 visa holder and although I received an interview appointment, I am expecting that my card will be approved before the interview schedule as I have observed the experiences of other K1 in visajourney. If I will have to appear before an immigration officer again, I will bring the same documents (plus marriage documents) that I brought with me during my consular interview.

I thought interviews were standard?

"Touch" today says an interview notice was mailed and it has been scheduled for Dec 7th at the National Benefits Center. I'm presuming the letter will actually state that the interview will take place at the local office, and not require the applicant to fly to Missouri? :wacko:
