Went to i751 waiver interview today

[vivian678 2]

I went to I751 waiver interview today in a local field office, the officer was nice and friendly , go through my personal information and took a lot notes , he asked me a lot questions like how we met , have I ever met his parents before , how we end up divorce ... A lot questions , seems like I all answer pretty well, only thing we don't have together is property , cuz we don't have anything big like cars anything . After that he took a copy of my Id , and told me the decision will be mail to me in 60 days , cuz he need some time to review my case , but also as a conditional green card holder I can have all the benefit just like the permenate resident . He told me if I want to travel I can go online and make an info pass to get a stamp on my passport .

As I read online , the officer most time took the expired green card away , but he didn't take mine , so I can't tell any decision from him , I'm so nervous just sit and wait ..

Is there anyone get approved just by the interview ? Normally how long the decision gonna mail to u ? 2 months seems like pretty long , anyone didn't get decision beyond 60 days ?

1. How long were you married? how long you lived together?

2. What evidence did you provide, please provide a list.

3. Did your spouse parents were at your wedding and you hanged out together? Did you provided pictures?

4. Are you from the same country and how much is the age difference?

5. Did you provided a statement letter at the time you file I-751 waiver explaining what happened?

Please provide these details so we can understand?

Thanks

1. We were married about 2 years and half , living together about 3 years .

2. Evidence of I751: joint bank account , bills of utilities , apartment lease , joint tax return , pics , letters to each other , tickets showing go vocation together , 3 mutual friends are US citizens's statements to show our relationship . I think that's about it , cuz my case took about 2 years to interview I almost forgot .

3. His parents not at wedding cuz , they are not in the states that time , but we had pic for spending thanks giving and Christmas time together , also we have the gifts and postcards from his parents .

4. I'm Asian and he is white , he is 4 years older than me .

5. Yes, I did provide the letter to explain why we end up divorce .

Also the the interview this morning , from the way I answered his questions , he asked me are your guys still friends , I said yes , and told him we still contact once a while and he got remarried again . I don't know that's good or not

So any advice about my case ?

You have good evidence, don't need to worry.

---What questions he asked. What did you forget?

--- Were you confused at any question?

--- When did you file I-751 , how did it take 2 years for interview?

Please explain, your case looks very strong but don't know why he was not convinced.

He asked about how we met , how long we know each other before we got married ,have I ever met his family before , have he ever met my family before , ( answer is yes , I have a lot relatives here they are all US citizens ) also he went to china with me to meet my family .

He also asked , when we married , what do I do ? I answered I was a student .

Then officer asked , who support me go to school , I answered my family , before and after marriage it's all my family .he asked what did my family do for living .

And then asked about whether my family support my marriage after I got married , I answered , NO, after I got married , my ex is the only one support the family , since I was still a student . My ex had a good job makes good money , which all shows in his pay checks .

One thing officer concerned about is have we ever purchase anything together , I answered yes , all the furniture a everything after we moved together we bought together , but we didn't pay much attention to keep the receipt .

Why my case took so long , I think only reason is the background check , and that's also the reason I got divorced . My ex was arrest for drug issue, after I got divorced I moved from east coast to west coast , so I change the address , the whole case have to transfer from east coast to west coast .

The total interview took about an hour , but it wasn't a stressed out conversation , the other saying it was a pretty casual conversation feel like talking to a new friend about my past story .

At the end , the officer didnt take my expired GC away , he told me I can get an info pass to get a stamp to travel , he need to review my case , he need a little more time , the longest I should be waiting about 60 days .

Btw, I get all cleared answer , whatever he asked me , only thing l forgot is how many documents total I sent in . Cuz been too long

Do your guys think I will get approved or denied ? I'm so worried its been so long , btw we were married when I still kinda young I was 23 he was 27 .

After reading through all your post, I'm pretty sure you will hear from USCIS soon that your application is approved. Sit tight and wait. Good news should be on its way

You have strong document, case and good interview. I don't think you need to worry about anything.

Good Luck

Your marriage sounds kinda like mine, just that my marriage lasts 1 year and a half and my ex didn't involve in drug issue. The rest is pretty much the same and I also wrote a marriage summary to USCIS. I sent my package on 6/19/13 and they received on 6/20/13, still waiting on NOA. I believe that you will get approved. I'd prefer an interview to an RFE.

Good luck! Let us know if there is any updates !

Hi vivian,

I was in the same boat as you and I also had a divorce waiver interview. I was also told between 30 and 60 days for the decision. I got the approval email after 26 days and the green card about 5 weeks after the interview.

I was in your shoes earlier so I know it's not gonna help much but I think you'll be fine. Just be patient and keep it cool. God bless.
