The interview in Oklahoma City:
Our interview was scheduled for 10:30 am and we were at the office at about 10:00 am. B)
As usual we made it through the security screening and were advised to throw our interview letter into the mysterious orange basket in the window and get seated.
About 15 minutes later we were called. An officer told us that her colleague is not yet in, but that she would do the interview for him. We followed her into a little office and she told us to raise our right hand and swear that we would tell the truth.
We got seated and she asked us to provide both our driver’s licenses and my passport.
She then asked us some simple questions like our birthdates, birthplaces, my mother’s and father’s first name, confirmed our address and asked me for our phone number. We then had a little chat about the wedding, how we met, how I like the US and Oklahoma, asked where my husband works and what he does for a living, when he was in the army, how it was in Iraq etc etc. :whistle: She then asked for an updated employer letter and we handed it to her (she wanted an original).
Then she went through the question catalogue (regarding the drug abuse, prostitution, terrorism etc.), which I all answered no.
She kept looking through my file and asked what we have brought in as proof of common residence and married life. We showed her a couple of pictures and she briefly looked through them – also mentioning that we wouldn’t believe what some people sometimes brought in (I guess some people bring in naked pics :help: :devil: )…. Anyway, we then gave her proof of our joint account (one bank statement) and an insurance which named both of us. She went ahead and made a copy of it. That seemed to be enough….  I had a big folder in my hand, and she didn’t want to see any of the bills or so.
She then asked for W2s of the years 2001 and 2002 – which we must have forgotten to mail in in the first place :oops: . She told us to mail them in later. She didn’t ask for ANY financial proof for the year 2004 (which you can guess made us very happy).
She also asked for my vaccination sheet, which of course, I didn’t have, since the doctor in Frankfurt, Germany, didn’t give me a copy…… :ranting:
Oh well, she told me to get the sheet and mail that in along with the W2s.
She took my I94 out of my passport and told me that she will approve my case as soon as I mail in the documents and that I should do so until May 27, because after that she will be in Washington for a couple of weeks, and I will otherwise have to wait a long time for my permanent residency card. I asked her if she stamped my passport, and she said, no, :huh: she couldn’t do this, since I am not yet approved…… oh well…
She then explained the process of getting the conditions removed off my card in 2007 and wished us a nice day.
That was it! In and out in about 30 minutes. :D :lol:
:dance: :dance: :dance:
