As some of you may recall,I posted a few questions prior to my interview,hoping for support and valuable advice.I got more criticisms than the ladder! It was very upsetting reading some of the most insensitive,ridiculous answers I received.Whats worse is that many of you thought it was normal and actually gave thanks for getting that type of treatment as well.Seriously??Just because you completed your immigration journey does not mean you should sit there and act like that.When people ask for advice,that is what they want..Not harsh criticism.It really sounded like you guys were angry about something I had nothing to do with.Anyhow,my interview went smoothly and not once did the officer show that he doubted my 10 YEAR relationship with my husband.The tax issue wasnt even a problem.1st off they are not the IRS,second I had a co sponsor who makes pretty good money.Plus,I work and pay taxes.Some of you said it doesnt matter if I worked or not.Well apparently it did because the officer asked if I was working and where.For those of you who think you know it all,think again and stop causing people unnecessary stress with your misinformation...Because ,hey,you might have to eat your words ! :rofl:

I am glad you got approved, you did have a difficult case. But this is your third post on the fact. Time to enjoy the approval, and start helping others?

The crazy thing is that you can never predict how another human being will react. No one can be 100% positive of how the interviewing IO will react or what he/she will ask for. That's why we try to give the most accurate answers we can. Sometimes it's not always conveyed in the friendliest of manners. Congratulations on your smooth interview and congratulations on your 10 year unconditional green card. Next step citizenship.

Let me quote myself (from one of those many threads you started)

No, I won't be congratulating you. Not until you say thank you to everyone who tried to help you, and offer some help to the many others who are still trying to get through this. Not until you express some sort of sympathy and understanding to the people who have had brutal interviews and are left waiting in limbo to hear a decision.

Some understanding on your part of how very lucky you are might make those "meanies" who told you they didn't think you had enough evidence say "congratulations."

Sympathy and understanding??Oh please.I've been through hell and back throughout my immigration journey since I was 16.Give me a break.Im not asking for a pitty party nor a pat on the back.Me being granted PR status has nothing to do with luck.I believe it was earned and well deserved. .I am more than happy to help others by answering questions that I have knowledge about,but I will not answer questions just to bs people.And yes,I def. won't be a meanie about it.Thats immature and unnecessary.

Why are you posting again? You want a pat on the back for succeeding? You want everyone to bow down and apologise for offering you advice on how to overcome your lack of evidence of relationship? For telling you how USCIS might look at it and how you need as much as possible? You are exceedingly ungrateful.

How about a pat on the back for US helping you? How about a "thanks for being hard on me and telling me about USCIS's ways because I was super prepared and succeeded at my interview because of it". But of course not. Of course we didn't help you, or advise you in ANY way. All we did was insult and deride you... oh wait no, that was you to our opinions and advice.

Congratulations to VJ for helping yet another person successfully pass their interview!!

Yes I am sticking to my opinion that some of those who answered were unsympathetic and rude.Someone even told me" Your marriage is fake isn't it?" So give me a break.None of the advice from the rude answers were taken actually.Sooo no,my success at the interview had nothing to do with you :rofl: .The only people I am to thank are my Husband and the Adjucating Officer who interviewed me...The interview is a breeze if you are in a bonafide marriage and if you follow the rules and the instructions.It was not nearly as harsh as some of you made it seem.Oh and thanks to those on here who helped me with the other inquiries I had and the support I needed throughout my immigration journey.They know who they are.You are certainly not one of them.

Really? I'm going to slit my wrists I'm just so upset you didn't like my advice:

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/372743-how-do-i-prove-my-marriage-is-real/page__view__findpost__p__5446157

On finding my advice I also found some of your other threads, including the one where you quit your job after a week because you couldn't handle it then went and begged for it back. I see I didn't encourage you then either: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/368365-im-ashamed-of-myself-for-quitting-my-first-jobi-need-uplifting-words/page__view__findpost__p__5387516
