Thank you all for the Congrats. We are so elated to have this part of the journey behind us. I wish all of you much success and please feel free to ask me questions if you have any.

Maybe you could go into detail about preparing your case for AOS seeing that the VO was so impressed with what you presented in your application....If you have some spare time

All I did was read the instructions and follow them precisely. If I didn't understand exactly what something meant, I researched (i.e., searched Visa Journey and other forums as well as did Google searches) to figure out what certain things meant. I provided every single piece of information that was requested and completely filled in the forms. I arranged every form and the supporting documents in an orderly manner and provided them with the original, as well as copies of each form and the supporting documents (i.e., birth certificates, marriage certificate, etc.). (I can't remember if it asked for that but I did it.) She made a comment, "Wow, you already provided us with copies, too.)

When she asked me for the first document, I reached into my tote and pulled out my binder and was able to easily locate each document she requested.

In our preparations, I thought we'd done just what everyone else does...complete the forms and submit the accompanying documents. Apparently, there are some who do not. This was something too important to us to do a slack job on it. So, just make sure you do your part in gathering all the information and you should be fine. If you think they may ask you for something, take it with you. No harm done if they don't.
