Hello, I had my interview on Friday the 28th in San Jose (Coleman). The interview lasted about 20 minutes and the IO was really nice.

 

Here is how my interview went: got in > oath > he asked me my fullname, husbands parents name, his bday, etc (got almost everything right except for where his father lives, I was nervous so it slipped my mind D:) > asked my husband same thing about me (everything correct) > asked me husbands past job and current job (everything correct) > asked both husband and I when how long we worked at previous job like start and end date (we honestly didn't know, not even our own jobs so we gave him rough estimates like "he/she was working there more than 6 months" kind of answers) > asked me about our relationship and how it progressed/when he proposed (We became official on 9/10/2010 and new years was when he proposed, then we married January 31st 2017 but we've been togther for almost 7 years already as bf/gf) > yes/no questions (everything no) > proof (gave him an old letter from bank showing joint, 2016 joint tax return, landlord handwritten letter stating we have been living together since August 2013, old pictures because we aren't a picture couple lol, life insurance, badges from event for year 2014 and 2015. I also brought checkstubs to show we have been receiving mail to show we live together but he didn't ask for those, only joint stuff. I think he might've, hopefully, had what I sent as a package because I sent PAGES worth of bank statements which showed we are joint) > interview done

 

The IO did small talk with us to so the environment was more comfortable and we did laugh quite some time too but he seemed like the soft spoken type. He then gave me the paper, thanked us, escorted us out. :(

 

Is this a bad sign? We didn't know each others/our own start and end date at old jobs. Also I want to add that my husband has gotten a new job but we didn't bring a letter or anything of the sort.. however the IO didn't even ask us to give him that. We also didn't have wedding pictures since it was a small wedding at city hall (don't know name but hope you guys know what I'm talking about!) I also forgot to mention one thing, the IO asked if anyone attended pur wedding, we said no since it was so small. I wasn't sure if we had a witness because this is my 1st marriage so I don't fully understand marriage certificates. I told him that I think we had a witness but forgot her name, because we didn't know her but she signed on the certificate. He didn't seem to mind, but yeah.. what do you guys think? Will I get approved? I'm nervous and haven't been eating much since then cause I'm so scared :( My husband thinks we did fine, but I feel like it'd be better to get more opinions. I'm sorry if this is long :( Thank you guys.

Congrats on your interview, some of us have been waiting for over a year now to have a date like you with any IO..... lol.......:D

It is common to forget somethings, like start date or end date, couples aren't suppose to be perfect all the times except if rehearsed. My suggestion is relax and pls eat.....it's not the end of the world.....Don't get sick and incur medical bills before the approval....lol.....relax and be patient.

Good luck
