Talk to your congressperson (Senators or Representatives). Inquiring at their office and getting a light nudge from someone with Washingtonian powers can help.

So we got mail today from the immigration. !!! Unfortunally not the welcome letter!!

We have a strokes interview next month at 6.30am!!!!

What can we expect at this interview? Why would they interview us again? They know everything. We have nothing to hide!! In the letter it says 4- 6 hours!!! PlZ advice. Thanks.

Well if it's a Stokes then they suspect that something is amiss.

Expect for you both to be separated and asked ~50 - 100 questions about all aspects of your daily life together, from the colour of the shower curtain, to who made dinner last night (and what it was), to when was the last time you had sex (yes, they can ask these sorts of questions).

How closely your answers correlate will determine whether they approve or deny your application.

What does your lawyer say?

So today we had our stokes interview!! They question my wife first for 1.5 hour and then me.

All kind off questions (sex/finances/family/wedding/house etc etc.)

We had 7 mismatches. But not the important things. Questions like who is picking your husband and dropping off him at work. ? Cause we have just one car for now. My wife answered his family and co workers. And I told her my family/ co workers and sometimes my wife!!

Anyways at the end she did not approve or deny our case. She told us to wait 4 to 6 weeks.

What can we expect??

Thanks.

You should expect an approval or Notice of Intent to Deny within the timeframe they mentioned.

Good luck. The only thing to do now is wait, I believe

So it seems the delay was for concerns over fraud, not name checks.

Any wrong declaration will pays a price.

- Expect an unannouced on-site visit and make sure you stay together.

- Expect an Notice of Intent to Deny if you have too many clearly discrepancies in your stoke interview.

The regular inforpass appointments will help you to follow-up your case although most or all of them will not give you any information. Be patient and to the best of my knowledge, you will be safe and have chance to defend your marriage when your marriage is still go well.
