Rating: | Review Topic: Adjustment of Status
Our appointment was at 9:30pm at the Irving, TX office. We arrived with our lawyer at 9:20am and the office was really full.
We got one of the "restaurant" buzzers and sat down to wait. About 20min later someone called my name.
The officer was a white male on his mid thirties. He sworn us in and asked us to sit.
He calmly explained all that he was going to do:
Part 1 - go through the application
Part 2 - talk about the relationship
Asked if we had any question, we said no and he started stating the information on the application as I confirmed it was correct. (full name, address, country and place of birth, parents names, wife's name etc)
He only went through the first few pages and jumped to the Affidavit of Support. Confirmed a bit of information and then said all looked good.
He looked at the evidence we had initially submitted: bills, affidavits from friends, pictures, etc.
He seemed to be measuring us every time he looked at us. He did that briefly and commented that we had sent many pictures and read the affidavits from friends for about 15 seconds.
He then said that all looked good and that I was approved. He checked to make sure I had passed the Security Background check and explained removal of conditions and told me to expect the card in 2 to 3 weeks.
That wasn't one single question asked about relationship or anything else. He only confirmed the information on the application.
I believed this was accomplished by the great work of my lawyer, who put a very detailed package together with all the evidence we could gather. God als blessed us with a easy going IO.
I was really tense about the whole process and had no idea it was going to be this easy. Thank God for that.
Just some facts for you guys still going through your process:
I'm the immigrant (male).
My wife is USC. She is 10 years older than me and we both had been married before.
We didn't have any pictures with her family, but had lots of pictures with friends and with my brother.
We are very happy and are now going to plan a trip overseas together!
Good luck to everyone waiting on your interview!
