question???? just had my interview

[annalou_cia 0]

i just had my interview and the interviewer never said anything if we are approve or not, she just said that the status is pending because of the background check. I dont know what will happen. Is there anybody who is the same situation as mine? i need an answer plssss

There are LOTS of people in your situation, basically it's just a sit and wait till the background check comes through.

There are alot of us in the same position as you are...you will find a thread in this forum, to give you an idea of how long it could possibly take etc

Please fill in your timeline

Hi, I just had my interview last week and I felt really confident since my husband and i have been together 10 years and had a lot of evidence to prove our case. Unfortunately, the immigration officer was a bi%^$ and 2 days after the inteview we received a letter for a 2nd interview May 2008. I am in chock. She didn't meniton anything when we left, but she wrote some numbers etc in my passport (i asked what it meant, but she refused to answer!). The CR-6 means that my case is still pending, I think. We weren't denied but have to go to the not so pleasant "stokes" interview 1 year and 3 months from now. That's when you are separated etc. I have my work authorization and traveling document, but i'm just upset because I can't for the life of me understand her decision. We decided not to have a lawyer, and that was a BAD idea. If you are approved they usually stamp a green card in your passport before you leave the interview. Hope it works out.

Not all offices stamp passport, it is becoming less and less common.

Never heard of a Stokes interview being done so far in the future.... they are normaly done within a very short time of the original interview...

Are you sure it is a stokes interview.....

And this is the first report I have seen on VJ since Jan. 1 wherein there was an interview despite the fact that namecheck is still not complete.

Something they were rumored to have stopped after Jan. 1, 2007.

Apparently the practice still exists.
