We didn't take our son, who was 16 months at the time, for the very same reason. I was so terrified he'd start screaming during the interview and put everyone on edge!! We just showed his birth cert and lots of photos. It wasn't a problem. Although, I saw lots of people there with their children. I think it's a personal choice, and I'm sure your interview will go smashingly, either with your bobeen or without!!! :D

11/10/2002- Met in person for the first time at Buffalo International Airport we spend a blissful but all too short week together.

9/30/03- Phone USCIS to ask questions on filling out paper work and USCIS officer informs us that if David is already here he doesn't need to leave. After numerous calls to the Irish Embassy and two more calls to USCIS to confirm, we decide he will stay.

Thank you all so much!!!! My app was approved and passport stamped will receive 10 yr card in mail because we've been married for 3 years...It was not at all as bad as I thought...

We were sworn in he asked where we live, when we were married, if we have kids, when did I enter what was my port of entry if I came on a Visa, went down the list of questions on I-485 about being terrorist etc...Asked my husband what kind of work he does and asked me where I work asked if we had any evidence to submit we handed him joint bank stmts, car registration in both or name, insurance and bills...He asked to see my daughter's birth cert I gave him a copy he said that was enough did not ask for I-94 or new medical or new affidavit of supp. So he went out the room for a while said he'd be back, came back took out his stamp, stamped my passport and said I was approved green card will arrive in mail in 2 weeks. That was it...I did not know if I should have cried or laugh I just felt like I was on top of the world. It was a pleasant experience, and it seems at the end of the day these people arent the monsters we think they are, they're only human just like us. So relax as you all have nothing to fear and good luck to all of you....

Congratulations on the approval.

It seems that if you have children together, it makes the process a lot easier since it's the best evidence of a bona fide marriage.
