Just a quick message to let you know I just got back from my AOS interview here in Los Angeles and I'm approved!!!

I'm so happy! I can really say my immigration process has been painless. Considering I entered as a tourist everything has gone just right! I can't be more grateful to this forum for all the help, support and encouragement.

My interview was fast, we spent a lot of time in the waiting room though. The immigration officer was friendly, sweet and professional. She congratulated me for preparing such a great package!

We brought tons of more evidence with us and she didn't need to see any of it, she said what we submitted was sufficient.

That was all really, no intent questions were asked, she only asked about our address, phone numbers where and when we met and if I have ever been arrested prior to handed me the congratulations letter.

My advice to others in the same situation is to be prepared and organized, to tell the truth and if you don't have anything to hide and your relationship is legit you should be ok.

GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL!!!
