[Chrissy25 0]

we were approved!!!!!!!

arrived at 7.30 am interview not till 9, mega early i know, hung around till 8.15, went through security then went to wait for our name to be called....about 5 after 9 my name was called and john and i followed a lady who we lady found to be called officer pedro (she was really nice) told us to stay standing and gave us the oath. Then we sat down asked for my passport, johns i'd, my id, my EAD and my SS card. ripped out the i94, good sign i thought, then asked me my full name, johns full name, our address and telephone number, then asked us how we met and when we got married. She just clarified the dates. i told her my first visit was feb 2004 on superbowl sunday in the heavy blizzard we had and she laughed remembering how bad it was. asked me the prostitue etc questions from the form, just basically clarifying what i had said on the form. asked for johns updated affadavit of support and his updated work letter plus our joint filed 2005 tax return, and NOTHING else!! i asked if she wanted my letter from my work she said ok, and she also looked though our wedding picture album. i also showed her the newspaper articles that we had appeared in, i think she was quite surprised by the amount of evidence we had! she then said she was approving our case and to expect my greencard in the mail in the next 5 - 30 days as the green cards are coming in really fast. Then she told us about lifting conditions and said that as from today i am a permanent legal resident! we both said thanks and as i was leaving i said thanks for letting me stay!! i remembered someone else had said that at there interview and i thought it was cute! we walked out relieved, the whole thing took between 10 and 15 mins. absolutly painless, even though i couldent sleep the night before.

So as it was a beautiful day in minneapolis we went shopping and just got back home.

thankyou so much to all you wonderful people on this website that have helped John and i so much, i dont know where we would be without you all, probably not very far along in this process at all!!

so thanks to all and good luck!!!
