Hey all!

Are there still a lot of people with no updates (other than EAD) in terms of interview dates? I'm not sure if I should be calling USCIS and checking in or if it's normal that I'm still waiting.

Also, how much notice do they give you for your interview? I'm booking vacation but have no idea how early I should book my flight in case I suddenly get the call to show up!

We had to alter our vacation as our interview date was smack in the middle! Arrived home today, interview tomorrow!!!

Hello everyone! We had our interview today.

Interview time 8:30.

ARRIVED 8:00

called to interview waiting room 8:17

Brought back to interview room 8:42

Interviewer-So how did you two meet?

Us- through mutual friends.

I- when was that?

U- 2011

I- when did you start dating?

U- immediately

I- when was it serious?

U- after a few months.

Interviewer paused and looked through papers.

I- (speaking to me, I had a different hair color in photos) is this actually you in the photos submitted?

Me- yes, I stopped dying my hair.

I- can you verify your name, ssn, address, date of birth, date of marriage, and phone number?

Me- I verified all info.

Husband- verified his same info.

I- (TO HUSBAND) have you ever been arrested?

Husband- yes.

Me- (jumping in before she could say anytning) we have here the citation report, dismissal report, and a letter from chief deputy stating there is no police report.

I- good I'm glad you were honest because I have already seen all of this and was going to deny if you tried to hide it.

Us-*nervous smiles*

I- do you have any more information to submit?

*gives her joint bank statement, rent agreement, rent receipt, electric statement, post office box registered to both of us*

I- good. Thanks.

I- I need to check a few things, it may take a few minutes.

*we all make small talk while her computer loads.*

I- do you have children?

*gives her BC for child and tell her about how cool he is*

I- have you been on government assistance?

US - no.

I- ok I am recommending you for approval.

Thank heavens. Her name was Buckley and she was terrifyingly serious the whole time. I really wasn't sure what the outcome would be.

My advice,

Be truthful.

Make sure all copies of everything are official stamped/originals.

Karmenta, congrats on your interview I hope you'll get approved anytime soon.

Question:

Since you are DACA, there was no problem getting AP and coming back from Mexico due your illegal presence of more than the years they say? I'm talking about the 10 year ban and also allowance to Adjust Status.

[KMArmenta 7]

I'm not sure I understand your question. We did advance parole separate from AOS. We did AP last summer, and waited a year for AOS.

We had our interview this morning....Officer was cool...she just asked how we met? Where do We work? When did I move to U.S and on what visa? I had applied for green card from work that was due for later this year but I filed under family class so prolly thats why she was asking me so many employment related questions.

She said they will inform by mail and if we don't hear back in 4-6 weeks of time frame then we can contact the office.

[KMArmenta 7]

Do we have to wait for card to arrive before ordering new social security card?

[hunnybunny2015 5]

Hi everyone,

I just got my interview scheduled for August 21th 2015.

Of course this is the worst possible time for us. We are moving out of state tomorrow so I am not sure what to do.

The real problem is that we will be living in a hotel until we find a new place (probably for a month) so right now we have no permanent address.

Any ideas??

Thank you!

You don't get a new ssn you keep the same one from daca your just changing your status not your number
