I had my interview on Thursday at the Seattle department of homeland security offices and was approved. As a regular reader but infrequent contributor I'd like to give a huge thanks to everyone on this forum for sharing their stories and giving good advice. The things I learnt on here were key to our success.

I'll give a quick overview of my own visa journey to provide advice and encouragment to others:

* Arrived in Sep '04 on J-1 visa.

* Got married Jun '05.

* Filed for AOS and EAD at end of Sep '05, with an immigration lawyer.

* Biometrics appointment in Seattle just before christmas '05. Had to wait 3 hours before getting fingerprints taken. Staff were very polite and pleasant.

* EAD recieved between christmas and new years.

* Interview Feb '06, immigration lawyer was present. Arrived a half hour early and was seen very promptly. Interviewer asked a couple of questions about when and how we met and how big our wedding was (our families flying in to attend was a big plus.) Interviewer spent a long time looking through all of our pictures, asking when and where each one was taken. We gave her evidence of our relationship - our apartment lease, joint bank account statements, car and insurance papers, jointly filed taxes. She asked the standard 'Are you a member of a terrorist organisation?' questions and that was it. We were out of the building within half an hour of arriving.
