Ok here we go
My wife and I had our AOS interview in Oklahoma City this morning (22 Apr 05) It was scheduled for 9:15. We arrived at 8:50 and sat in the lobby, i figured that we would be in and out quick for we were the only ones there. However, we were still called in 20 min late, at 9:35. The man took us back to his office (typical office a desk, 3 chairs, computer etc.) where he told us to remain standing as he swore us in. we agreed to tell the truth and he said have a seat. He asked us each for a form of ID, I provied him with my military ID, and my wifes Dependant military ID. at this point it got quiet as He proceeded to look through our file, stamping a date here , stamping a date there. Next he looked at a form that I remember us doing, but i cannot remember the form number, its the one that has all the questions where you check the box yes or no and it asks the NON-us citizen have you ever helped someone enter the US illegally, have you ever been arrested etc. He said that we have already awnsered these questions on the form, but he had to ask us again under oath so he did. after that he asked had we filed our 2004 Tax returns I said yes, and gave him a copy.
Next he asked us for our Bona fides (things showing proof we have a true marriage, and we live together) we gave him a copy of the water bill with both our names on it, the cable bill, lease agreement, joint bank account, dental insurance, health/life insurance, he said ok this should be enough. He then started adding everything we gave him to our file. at this point he broke out the red ink box and put his stamper into it, and stamped approved about 5 different times in various places in our file, then he took my wifes passport and stamped the I-551 stamp in it. He proceeded to explain about lifting the conditions 90 days before our 2nd anniversary from today(22 Apr 05) and asked us if we had any questions. we asked a few quick questions about obtaining dual citizenship, should my wife decide to become a US Citizen and he gave us the awnsers. He asked was that it, we said yes, we shook hands and said have a good weekend. Our interviewer was pretty cool, and laid back, he made us feel very comfortable in his office. The interview took all of 20 min fromt he time we were called. We took a lot of proof with us to the interview, and he didnt need much from us except for 2004 tax return, and bills with both names as stated earlier. didnt ask for Photos, or anything. Again Thanks to all the people of visa journey for your input has truely made this major task, run smoothly as possible.
Now Tweety, Cassie and all other OKC applicants its your turn, and good luck... when you read this post, if you feel i may have missed something, or you have a question more in depth about the interview please feel free to send me a Private message, and ill hook you up with all the info i can.....
