Decision cannot yet be made - Continuous Residence

[national 5]

Hello. Had my interview today. Everything went great, passed English tests and everything else was fine. Except one thing that I had 2 trips outside the U.S. for more than 6 months in the last 5 years. But in the last 3 years I've never been outside for more that 1 month. I was a student in Europe on that time, so this was the main reason of my absence. Officer asked me a lot details about my trips and had me signed all the information and handed me a "Decision cannot yet be made" letter and asked to wait.

 

At the time I was outside of the U.S. - my family lived in the States, leased house and owned cars. I have all the statements that I managed bank account and came back to my parent's house where I live since I came to U.S., paid taxes, constantly was working when was present in the U.S. and some other proof papers. I've seen a lot of examples that this case mostly is denied. My status is still "Interview was scheduled".

 

Anyone had similar situation? What do you say my chances are to get approved?

It's impossible to handicap your chances without knowing all the facts surrounding your absence(s). The decision, by law, is a factual one. A lot of the facts you lay out help your chances, though. Good luck!
