I can hardly believe it, but we have our AOS interview on April 11 at 11a.m. My husband is not nervous, I am terrified. We rec'd a notice in early December that it would take less than 180 days for the decision on our case, and we get our interview date on January 26th, so it didn't take too long!

I know we will have no trouble whatsoever proving that we have a valid marriage. No trouble proving he entered the country legally. But...he accidentally overstayed his 180 days as a visitor (not on a visa, he's Canadian and didn't need one, didn't need a passport, either) and we're kinda freaked about that. However, we spoke to a lawyer and she said "although immigration is a serious matter, this is a minor problem." So if she thinks it's okay, it's okay! She's a top lawyer in our area for immigration, so I believe her!!

Well, please think of us on this day. :-D
