gotcha - they gave her her SSN # though on the spot correct? i probably have to go through the process next week as my wife's EAD should come in tomorrow or monday.

Thank you guys!

We arrived there 10mins. before our scheduled time which was 12:30pm and waited another 40mins. before my name was called.. The IO was in her late 30's kinda strict looking but overall she was very nice.. She called my name and took me and my husband to her office.. We sat there while she was was flipping thru my files that I submitted and basically she just asked my husband his name, address and where did we met.. She asked my name, address, date of birth , home number, ss#, the last time I was admitted in the US and the people who were on our wedding pictures.. She also asked for utility bills, rental agreement, health insurance card, original copy of marriage certificate, bank account and joint tax return.. After that she said 'ok everything looks good I will approved your greencard and you just wait for it in the mail within 2-4 weeks.. She gave me a copy of the interview result and we shoke her hands and was done in less than 10mins..

P.S.

She never took any documents that I brought me..

so our interview is on 2/12 and i wanted to let you guys know what i have as far as a abonafide marraige and evidence.

three bank accounts ( 2 savings and one checking)

several credit cards in her name

proof of insurance on both cars ( just got her a car ! )

health insurance ( i have one set of document that shows her coverage and address - it expired though and applied to another insurance that i have but won't take effect until march)

paper showing her as a beneficiary on my IRA

pictures of course

mobile bill showing her as an authorized user ( its a screen shot , on billing statement it shows only my name).

possible life insurance beneficiary paper ( still working on getting one but it may not be by the time of interview)

i can't remember if i have anything else ( i am at work now heheh but writing the stuff out of memory)but wanted to share what i have, i'll have to check my paperwork as i may have forgotten anything else.

I am going to add her to be on my house that i own , but my mortgage company is saying i have to refinance my loan in order to do that so thats not going to happen anytime soon before interview.

can you guys see if there is anything else that i can add her too ? any utilities may take a billing cycle to generate names but i wanted to see if i have good enough evidence or panic..ha ? thanks!
