I would have done early walk-in biometrics however my ASC was located about 2 hours away by car so we didn't want to risk the time/gas to just show up and possibly be refused.

Hey Everyone!

I didn't even know this topic/thread/forum existed! Wow, it seems like I did miss out on a lot. I could've shared my frustration and vented here lol

I got my interview notice email and text for May 8th. Im wondering if it would be the same office as the biometrics one.

-------------

Here is what I posted in another forum, don't know how to delete it there, would help if February filers can advise on how they're preparing for their interview:

So I'm very excited today because I received a text and email with status update. Case status update says that I have been schedule for May 8th interview but the text & email is to let me know that the letter was mailed on April 6th!! (Haven't received it yet so don't know the location yet).

I am super excited, nervous, worried and happy!! I have the following prepared:

1. Complete copy of what the package I mailed in.

2. Originals of all the documents + last years' joint tax return which I didn't send in with my package because it wasn't filed at the time

3. Everything organized and tagged in my special PINK Immigration folder (lol)

4. Honeymoon and wedding pictures...

5. I am 6 months pregnant (showing very much) so this should help???

The only twist or POTENTIAL issue or tricky things I can see them being suspicious about are as follows:

1. We've been married for ONLY 8 months

2. We met online ( not a very conventional way to be getting married in my culture)

3. We were both married before ...(I don't how that would be looked suspiciously but I should mention that I've been married twice before and this is my THIRD one - never was I sponsored by anyone though)

So the question I have is, other than preparing a few questions on the Guide for interview link here, what else should I have prepared?

1. I don't have recent pay stubs... just his job contract which is for 10 YEARS!! Should I start collecting pay stubs starting now?

And Are my concerns listed above really a cause for concern?

Thanks!! Any opinion would be greatly appreciated...

It's been two weeks since my biometrics and nothing. The last updated date online was the day they sent my biometrics appointment which seems to me like there is zero movement on my account…. Ugh. Time for a drink.

It took my case 2 and a half weeks almost 3 before it switched to Testing and Interview after biometrics, don't count yourself short just yet! :P

Congrats to everyone for getting their interview appointments by the way! I'm probably not going to get mine for several months for the Atlanta office, and I'm moving to Oregon in July/August so with how slow that office is (there are people have been waiting for 6 months) I'll probably end up having my interview in Portland.

Day 57 today, hopefully will hear something about my EAD by the end of the week. Seems everyone with simple cases is hitting the EAD around the 60-65 day mark.
