Interview was a breeze and got approved on the spot! :dance:

I went in for my 1:45 interview and was called in ten minutes later by a white male in his 50's. At first he gave a strictly professional attitude but after we were sworn in he made conversation and the interview was a piece of cake. He asked all the information in the paperwork and checked off all of our answers on the paper, he took a few minutes to input some of my medical information in the computer and while he was doing that we chatted about Ohio because both him and my hubby are from there. He asked for any other documents I may have brought, I took out some pictures and a couple bills...he skimmed them and said he would take some copies and briefly left the room. When he came back I thought he would ask for pay stubs, lease agreement, marriage certificate, and all the other things listed on the interview notice. To my surprise he gave me a piece of paper stating that my I485 had been approved, he explained the green card and ROC procedures. He happily escorted us out and said he would order the production of my card. I got a txt notice before I even made it back home :)

I think after sameh, there is no interviews until dani in 12 days. this is when we had a couple weeks without interviews notices... maybe I am missing some, I didn't add all the newer names to the spreadsheet

--> august filers spreadsheet

Interview was a breeze and got approved on the spot! :dance:

I went in for my 1:45 interview and was called in ten minutes later by a white male in his 50's. At first he gave a strictly professional attitude but after we were sworn in he made conversation and the interview was a piece of cake. He asked all the information in the paperwork and checked off all of our answers on the paper, he took a few minutes to input some of my medical information in the computer and while he was doing that we chatted about Ohio because both him and my hubby are from there. He asked for any other documents I may have brought, I took out some pictures and a couple bills...he skimmed them and said he would take some copies and briefly left the room. When he came back I thought he would ask for pay stubs, lease agreement, marriage certificate, and all the other things listed on the interview notice. To my surprise he gave me a piece of paper stating that my I485 had been approved, he explained the green card and ROC procedures. He happily escorted us out and said he would order the production of my card. I got a txt notice before I even made it back home :)

congrats!

Approved on the spot! I was really worried it would be horrible because I have been married before (my girls's dad & my son's dad) and I sponsored my ex-husband's green card 8 years ago. But they never even asked about it! Will post a full recap when we get the rest of the way home!
