hi everybody,

I just wanted to share my Greencard Interview experience with everybody here in the forum.

First of all, I got approved and I am really happy! It went very smooth and the immigration officer was very friendly.

We brought everything with us, originals and copies of all the things that were mentioned on the checklist.

However, she did not even wanna see most of it! She asked us how we met, where we both live now, and what we do. Then, she said that our paperwork was done properly in the past and therefore she only wants to see the rental agreement and joint bank account. Of course, the pay 2 stubs and that was it!

No pics, no vaccination supplement, nothing else she asked us for! We were really surprised about that!!

Oh yeah, then she took my passport, took the i-94 out, kept the EAD and stamped my passport saying that I am being approved for I-551. She told us that I will get the greencard in 1 or 2 weeks.....

Finally, she explained that the conditons have to removed end of 2007 by filling out this form i-...whatever.. I forgot. I am approved !! that matters!!

Good luck to all of you!!

Phil J,

yes, Central Blvd. thats were the interview wtook place. Its the Department of Homeland Security and its on the Northside. its very close to Intercontinental Airport.

Be there early because its gonna be packed. Lets say 20, 25 minutes earlier and you will be fine. There will be many couples, people waiting to be interviewed but we only waited 15 minutes until my name was called and the interview was about 15-20 minutes itself.

Be prepared to take everything with you, still, because you never know who the officer will be...

GOOD LUCK!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! m-happy2.gif
