I am a bit confused as I have an initial interview for AOS on April 24th and know that I have to bring documents proving my relationship with my husband. I filed on Dec 5th 2005. What happens after this interview? I mean do they decide there and then if I can stay in the country ( I am Scottish). As it's an initial interview does that mean I'll have several more? What about the SSN? That is the major hassle,when do I find out if I get one? :(

Yeah.. they could approve it then... they could tell you the interview is successful, but there are still outstanding issues before thay can grant you permanent residency status (outstanding background checks), or they can schedule another interview to find out more (Stokes Interview).

Do you have an EAD.. if so you can get a SSN now...

If not, you have to wait until you are given permanent residency status before you are eligible for one..

I have completed an application for employment I 765,is this what you mean? All I have had is an acknowledgment that they have receievd it and it said that USCIS will schedule an appointment for by biometrics to be taken. I haven't yet rec'd an appt date for that yet.So I don't know how long that will take.Am I right in saying they are more keen to actually prove this is a valid relationship rather than worrying about paperwork? Because I came in on a 3 month visitor visa when I was married but had a ticket to leave again that I decided not to use?
