Hey All!

Our interview was on 5/8/12. It was so far from our home, left at 6am in the morning. We arrived, checked in with security, filled out a small form, and had a seat. There were about 6 other couples/families. We literally waited a maximum of 20 minutes to be called in. The officer was very very kind, there was someone observing with her. During the whole conversation, she asked a maximum of 10 questions pertaining to our marriage, but it was a very casual conversation, didn't feel like an interview. Looked at our photo books we brought and then moved on to the next part. She talked to my husband about his status and what would happen next. She then told us we were approved on the spot :dance: . We told her that we are going to Barbados for my birthday/Mothers Day gift, and guess what??? She told us give her about 15 minutes, and she would wrap our case up, and stamp his passport! Woo hoo! Talk about a day! I thank the Lord and you guys for your support and knowledge along the way. Just got an email stating his green card is production!! Hope to hear good news from others :thumbs:

Ok guys, its here! We have our Interview tomorrow. Trying to keep the nerves down.

Got the binder together.

Relationship stuff: Have the joint bank, joint insurance, lease document, a bunch of pictures spanning our relationship, receipts for wedding rings, photography contract from wedding, tickets to honeymoon, Disney picture on honeymoon, a letter from her to me when dating that is post dated and has stamps made from pics of us and a printout from our Facebook pages that shows our married status and 308 mutual friends.

I have all the ID's birth certificates and marriage certificate originals + copies for them, the letter from my wife's employer, tax forms, w2's, pay stubs...

Am I forgetting anything?

Send prayers our way! :thumbs:

Wow, I won't even schedule interviews on a Friday afternoon, just in case I want to leave early. No way I'm ruining my days off with them.
