AOS Interview (Los Angeles)

[TennantFamily 5]

Hi all - we had our AOS interview yesterday, thought I would add info if it helps anyone:

 

- They were primarily concerned with tax returns and paystubs, all of which we had and presented. 

- We were only asked where we got married (and half-way through explaining, agent said he had had enough info).

- All of our photos/albums were reviewed, but not questions asked. They did keep a few photos from our wedding (which we have duplicates of).

 

Overall it was very simple and painless; we hope to get the Green Card within the next few weeks! Hope this helps!

Thank you for this info!  

 

Did you have your paystubs in addition to the last 3 years' tax transcripts or in lieu of transcripts and just with tax returns?  Curious to know if we need pay stubs or proof of assets for 2019 or if the 2016-2018 transcripts are sufficient.

I had my most recent 3 paystubs (so 9/1, 9/15, and then 10/1 which deposited early), as well as tax returns from 2016/2017/2018. Basically everything that you sent in with your I-485 AOS package, you should bring with you (copies for them to keep). If you have proof of assets for 2019, I would bring them, but seems like all 2018 info would suffice. They were way more concerned that I had a stable job and have been paying my taxes than anything else. That and make sure your medical is all there (we had an issue with ours; the local doc didn't fill out all the pages so its delayed us). Finances and Medical seemed to be the top concerns. I would honestly just bring every item you have showing income, and then joint finances/marital name changes, etc. 

 

Hope this helps!
