Interview at philadelphia office.

We were 5 minutes late for interview(Tip- keep plenty of leeway for parking and driving and long security line). 

check in at front desk, Finger print on first floor than wait at door 2 second floor. We were called in as soon as we sat down. Officer was really good. Chitchat mostly. Ask about our kid while walking down aisle to interview room. 
question- Verify entire I 130 with husband( bios yes no questions)and I 485 bios with me and yes no questions

hows wedding ceremony?
wedding date?

where we met?

honeymoon where, how many days? 

any proof of relationships? (He was more interested in pictures than document, he kept all documents and pictures.)

future plans? With work and life together? We told them about our upcoming promotions and buying house in a year or two. 
approved on the spot. 
case updated after one hour- new card being produced and next day approved?

waiting for card in mail.

 

good luck to everyone. Just be honest, if you get few dates wrong they understand.

Hey everyone! 

I had my AOS interview yesterday.... we got approved!!! 😁 USCIS office: Indianapolis 

 

My husband and I were called in together. They asked him most of the questions about our relationship but nothing too detailed. They were all just standard "how did you meet, how long did you date before getting engaged, where was your wedding?" 

 

Then they asked me the long yes/no questions of "have you ever committed a crime?" Etc. So annoying 😂  

 

The only things she asked for was to to see our birth certificates and passports/ID. That was it. 

 

Then after looking through our application, she said "I'll approve your case!"  - my online status already shows that a new card is being produced 😊 

 

We are so relieved this journey is over! (Well until another 2 years Haha) 

 

Best of luck to everyone else here!! Thank you to those who helped me. 

If anyone has more questions about the interview, feel free to message me!

Hey there! 
 

I have my interview coming up and just wanted to find out from anyone who has already had their interview and didn’t get any updates on your EAD (with SSN requested): did you receive a SSN card after your interview with your green card, or did you have to go to the SSN office to apply for one? 
 

Thank you and sending good vibes to everyone. 

Yes, Exact same question. Our interview is 12 March.

I have my interview in San Jose, California office this Friday 2/14. 

 

I noticed I have to bring a birth certificate (I'm the sponsor, US citizen), but I was born in an U.S. territory. I wasn't able to get the original copy of my birth certificate since I had to call the hospital (off-shore) to authorize my friends to get the original birth certificate and it won't arrive in time so I had them scan it and I printed it.

 

Question 1: Would they accept this scanned form? There was no way I was going to be able to travel to my home town to get the certificate and fly back due to work.

Question 2: My wife, is pregnant... we just found out 2 weeks ago XD.  If the officer does ask any related questions to pregnancy we'll answer truthfully, but is it worth bringing it up while doing the interview and we supposedly talk about our relationship timeline and happened to give the pregnancy news too?

They did not ask for my husbands birth certificate. We actually sent only my husbands passport with the petition and they didnt ask for neither at the interview as the lady said that she had everything from the petition. Thats just my experience. 

In my opinion I would only answer what they ask me but as you said, do not lie about it if it does come up.

We did our interview yesterday. The interview was maybe 10-15 minutes. Asked to see our rings, new photos, K1 Visa, AP/EAD card and joint bank accounts. He also asked if she has health insurance. We provided him copies of proof of insurance, proof that she is my beneficiary on my 401k and tax returns (he didn’t ask for any of that though). He asked me if I knew her parents names and occupations and how we met. All they asked her was the yes and no questions on the AOS form, such as drug trafficking and terrorism. Also said wow you speak English lol 

 

Our case has changed to case under review. I guess we will just have to wait some more while they decide if we get approved or not.
