Review Topic: Adjustment of Status

We had our interview today in Chicago, our appointment was for 11:30am. We took the Rock Island Metra train into LaSalle Street Station at 10:49am. The 101 West Congress office is just across the street from the train station, so we walked there within a few minutes. No worries about parking. Security is there just as you come through the door. Walk through metal detector and they scan your bags. Really no big problem. As we passed through security we got on the escalator that leads to the 2nd floor of the building. Very easy setup. Gave our appointment letter to the receptionist who date stamps it and keeps the letter. She then gives out a pager and we went and had a seat in the waiting area. The waiting area is large enough to hold about two hundred people but there was only about 6 couples waiting. We waited for about a half an hour and our pager went off. We took the pager back by the receptionist at (Door 2) and our IO met us at the door. She was a very friendly Ameri... read complete review

Review Topic: Adjustment of Status

We had our AOS interview in Chicago today.

My wife is the US citizen and I'm the beneficiary.

It was scheduled for 11:30am. We got there at 10:30 am,
cleared security, went up to 2nd floor and submitted our interview appointment letter.
The lady at the counter gave us a buzzer and we then waited until 12:20pm for our turn.

Our IO was a male officer who took us to his office, introduced himself and made us take oath to
tell the truth.

He then said "you must be __ and you must be __". He then asked for our drivers license, passports
and social security cards (he said "if you have them"). He noted our new address on our original
application packet we had submitted.

He then went over a checklist of Yes/No questions for me such as "are you affiliated with a terrorist organization" etc etc (no to all) and in the end made us both sign the document.

He then asked my ... read complete review

Review Topic: Adjustment of Status

After a lengthy process of missing a letter for interview and being sent to DOJ for removal proceedings this interview went rather well. After a 15 minute wait with paperwork in my computer bag and lawyer by my side, there were very few questions. She just looked perplexed as to why we didn't receive our mail, especially when she handed to us the returned mail.

She also liked that the paperwork was in order, was impressed with the bank accounts and credit cards (photocopies of both cards with different names but same account numbers) and the latest pictures we handed her.

After about 10 minutes, my lawyer and her Bee-Essed for about a few minutes and it was done. No power trips, no drama.

The interview was easy. We completed all forms by the book, so we had nothing to hide when we went in for the interview.

The officer asked us how we met, then chatted about our situation.
My wife is bilingual in Spanish, and English, but if your spouse isn't fluent, you will need to bring a translator.

Anyhow, after we chatted, the officer went into our story a little bit, looked through our photos, asked 12 basic questions (i.e., have you ever committed any crimes? Have you ever been arrested? Have you ever transported money illegally?). Once the questioning was done, the officer stamped my wife's AOS application, and confirmed that she would get her green card.

My wife had actually purchased a ticket to visit her family in Nicaragua the day after our scheduled green card interview. So, the officer completd the advanced parole application for us in his office, and had us get the stamp downstairs at the lobby.
