Anybody out there waiting for 1.5 years or longer??

Quick update: I will fill in the details later. We had our interview today, the interview was straightforward. We had WAY more evidence than necessary.

 

Unfortunately, they gave us a notice saying our case is being held for review. This notice was printed out before the interview, not sure about that. So now we have up to 120 days of waiting, hopefully it doesn't take that long.

If your approval is >2yr after marriage, then you jump straight to the 10yr green card.

Hi everyone,

 

We just had our interview in San Francisco today. The officer sworn us in, and then proceeded to ask me the routine questions (name, address, citizenship etc). After this, they asked us to tell our love story - I summarized our relationship from dating until marriage.

 

My husband (the petitioner) didn't get any questions whatsoever!

 

We were approved on the spot. I presented a photo album and that was about it.

 

I still cannot believe it went so fast. It probably depends on the officer, but we were just very lucky to get a nice person.

 

Good luck everyone!!!

I redid my medical exam, just FYI. I know that there's a new law that would make the first medical exam valid for 2 years, but I did not want to risk delaying my application.
