Interview was scheduled for 8:30, we arrived at 7:50, went through security and showed the gaurd our interview notice. He instructed us on where to place it. We got called in at 8:40ish and we got in the elevator to leave at 8:58. Hubs was concerned cause some people that came in later than we did had gone in to interview. Our IO called us and walked us in, told us to remain standing while we took the oath.
Next she asked to see ID,then we went over the I-485, my name, address, phone number, yes and no questions. She did the same thing with the I-130. After verifying the information in the forms, she asked if we had a lease, we provided a notarized copy, she asked if we had a copy for our records,we said no, and she said she would make a copy, I thought that was nice, cause I hear some IOs, have you go out of the building to make copies. She asked if we had more recent bills, I provided and told her that I also have our wedding album, she flipped through and I commented. I also gave her our bank and credit card statements, she didnt want them cause we had submitted previous copies, she took them though.
Then she asked about our relationship, where did we meet, when, how, how long did we date, where did we go to, when we got engaged, when and where we were married. When did my husband move in, when did we move to our current house and if we've always lived together since we were married.
We answered her questions accordingly and at the end she said it all looked good, and we should get the GC in 1 to 2 weeks, she also said the I-130 approval notice might come before or after the GC. She explained that the GC would invalidate the EAD, so to cut that in half when I get tge GC. She also said to update my employer, I asked if I had to always carry it with me and she said to make a copy, and to try to always carry it, but that most people don't. At this point she started to walk us out and I asked if we would get the Conditional GC and she said yes, and said to send a lot of information, so we dont have to interview again. She also said that they usually mail a reminder 6 months before your conditional GC expiration date.
That's all folks, just waiting on the website updates.
She did npt take my I-94, or my H1B I-94.
