Hi everyone

Just wanted to know if anyone out there had their AOS interview at the Federal Plaza District in NYC and would like to know their experience and outcome of the interview?

My husband's AOS interview is soon coming up next week, March 23 to be exact and I'am just now gathering up all the evidence we have to prove our valid marriage.

So far it seem that we didn't established enough evidence with our names together, the only thing we have our names together is a letter from the owner of the house stating that we are renting this home and we just recently opened a joint checking account.

We also have lots of mail and junk mail with our names individually coming to the same address, plus the utilities, phone and cable are all under my husband's name, he even established his own credit history since being here. Would this be enough?

I can't speak to the interview at Federal Plaza because we had our interview in Philly...BUT I've been to Federal Plaza for work several times and know if you are not a gov't employee you need to allow plenty of time for the long line to get in. I've been there before and after 9/11 and the lines to get in certainly appeared much long after.....especially since the WTC was across the street from Federal Plaza.

I've never been to the site you mentioned.

On the question of how much evidence is enough: it all depends on the officer you get. Some people never have photographs or documentation looked through, and sometimes the officer wants to look at X or Y.

My interview is there a week after yours. We were there for an InfoPass appointment. We got there early and didn't have to wait too long outside.

As for a list of what to take, I posted my list almost 2 weeks ago. If you search for my posts you might find it, or scroll back through the AOS forum for mine or others out there. Many have posted their lists and have good ideas.

Good luck with the interview next week.

Thanks bettenan, Autumnal and daisy16

My only worry really is not having enough document evidence with both our names on it. I guess we got lazy about doing anything about it from the begining.

Now I wonder if it will look funny that we had just decide to open a checking account together recently and also I had just changed my maiden name to my alien husband's name, what do you guys think?

Either way we will be truthful to say that we just never got around to doing it.

And daisy16 Good Luck on your interview too
