Does everyone get a USCIS home visit?

[phang0603 1]

I searched on the topic and saw several people already posted about this topic. I want to know if recently someone experienced USCIS home visit? I married a US citizen and currently my 130 , 485 is on process. AOS from Tourist visa to green card marriaged based visa. Does the USCIS visit after the interview? My husband works far from our home so hes renting a room near his work. he only comes every thurs to sunday at our home. So what if the USCIS agent look for him , what should i do? Shall i give his number so they can call him and validate hes working right?

Home visits are quite rare.   As long as your marriage is bonafide and you have plenty of evidence to back that up, you should be fine.

It is very rare for there to be a home visit, certainly not normal.

They can make an appearance at any time, but again, it’s rare.  
 

Why are you so nervous about it?   If there are no red flags about your relationship and AOS, there is no need to worry.

The ones I have come across have been after.

While this isn't the most typical living situation, people have different work schedules so it's not exactly unusual that one spouse may be out in the rare case of a home visit. Does he have clothes in the closet? Are there belongings around the house that indicate a couple is living together? Do you have photos together in the house? 

 

You really don't need to worry unless there are other red flags or actual fraud in your case.

If you're that worried, keep copies of your husband's weekly work schedules at hand.

Again, unless there are severe red flags, a home visit will be highly unlikely (chances approaching zero).

Home visits are extremely rare and it is even rarer for a working spouse to be at home during the day if they do visit.

 

They would be looking for evidence he lives there.  If there is one toothbrush, only ladies clothes in the closet, none of his mail or his things in the house, that would trigger interest or suspicion that you are not living as a married couple.

 

Again, it is extremely, extremely rare for USCIS to visit a home.
