Hi, guys! I've been reading some threads about filing AOS from family based visas-

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/538871-march-2015-aos-filers/and judging by the posters' timelines, the RFE stage seem to be case by case / not everyone is being requested of it. Am I right? Thanks in advance. :)

Yes, not everyone gets an RFE. So be careful in filing out the forms and always triple check everything! Make a duplicate of the package too.

I see. Do you happen to know what "AOS interview" means in some timelines? I mean, does it happen after receiving the EAD/AP? If the AOS interview is approved, is that where you get a GC of some sort?

aos interview = couples go to their USCIS local office to get interviewed. interviewer determines if their marriage is for real and not just for immigration.

Some gets interviewed, others dont.

aos interview could happen before or after EAD/AP card issuance. They are processed by different offices so their approvals do not affect the other

yes you get the GC if your interview is approved. you get it faster if you get an interview.

We were careful with completing our documents and so never had an RFE for AOS. Also, never had the interview as they never required that from us.

No one give you what's going to happen with your case but, lessen the problems by doing a neat and accurate submission and you will cut down on the possibilities of an RFE's or interview.
