Yay its all done, thank god and thank you each and every one at VJ for their advices.

Heres how it goes......

left home at 7:15 am and then reached the USCIS center around 7:45am and since it was a bit early for us we went and got some breakfast and got back to the USCIS around 8:00. we went inside and went thru security and they stamped the notice and then we were directed to appointment room around 8:10 am. we.

there were lot of ppl waiting over there. We were called in by a officer at 8:45am. We went in to his cublicle and before we sat we had to take a oath that whatever we say is true and correct. Then he wanted to see our identification and we showed him our drivers license, he compared mine wiht my husband to see if the address was the same, asked for my passport, marriage certificate, EAD, birth certificate and he verified it with the documents that he had in the file.

Then he asked for a copy of a new I-864 and 2004 tax returns and also a letter of employment from my husband which we gave him.

He asked how did we meet and confirmed that we got married in india on feb 9 2004. He was said u we have a bad news for you. since you havent completed 2 yrs of marriage i would give u a 2 conditional greencard. But he was happy that we came today and didnt reschedule our appt so that we get can a 10 yr green card, and he also gave a word or 2 about the lawyers, he said if u would have had a lawyer he would have justified and reschuleded our appt but he also said not that i dont like lawyers.

Then he asks for the pictures we gave him a small album from the day we got married till the time we were in the US. he asked to show his parents and my bro we did it, then he asked for supporting documents whcih we gave the car insurance, apt lease papers and bank statement, he also asked us whether we have any kinda medical insurance card with us and he compared it. He didnt ask for my vaccination supplement but i gave it to him.

then he asked those std yes/no questions and said i am approving ur application and u need to lift conditions and gave us some informations as to when to file for citizenship, and we were done by 9:10 or so.

so now i am free of paper work until Nov 5 2007
