When did you meet?

Who attended your wedding?

Do you rent or own your home? Do you have a lease?

Do you have any joint bank accounts? 
Have you spent time with each other’s family and friends? 
Do you work? 
 

There were also many questions taken from the application forms relating to crimes, military training, etc. 

 

For evidence, he was mainly interested in joint bank statements and a copy of the marriage certificate, but he kept photos, tax forms, pay stubs, employer letter and everything else we brought (aside from original birth and marriage certificates).  

Really good to know! Thanks! Here's hoping you get your approval soon! :)

Hi Guys we just got done with our interview a little while ago. Seemed to go pretty well. The interviewing officer was friendly, and even though his questions were quite direct, he was not intimidating or off putting.

 

Validated some documents first - driving licenses, passports, birth certificates and marriage certificate. Then moved onto some questions about us and our relationship - how we met, when the relationship started, when we got married, what parents think, all about our families. He kind of would ask one of us a question and then after a certain point have the other of us finish the story off. After that, he went through some national security questions and also took some evidence we brought (lease, car title, health insurance and bank/cc statements).

 

No approval on the spot but he confirmed that no changes had been made and then took us through the next stage, ie removal of conditions, so hopefully that is a good sign. We were probably in the interview 25 or so minutes.

Thank you so much for the tip! I checked and it’s  indeed both! So happy :)

woo hoo! congrats! 🎉 

Btw, how did you guys who have received cards (either EAD or GC) find the tracking numbers? Was it through EMMA? I think @boy2aman might be able to help me with this. If not, that's okay

Thank you. It is very disheartening sometimes. We even tried to expedite but nothing happened.

How did you get the tracking number? EMMA?

We got the tracking after the portal said GC was being produced.  It's USPS priority. If you have the USPS account with informed delivery it shows up as a package that's coming your way.  Check the portal for tracking number. In our case I logged onto the USPS account to check the informed delivery and it was being tracked already as a priority package.

A little off topic. But does anyone know if a LPR with a conditional GC can apply for Gloval Entry?

Yes, you can. But! once your GC is expired and you are entering on GC + extension letter, Global Entry no longer works and you have to be processed by CBP officer.
