About 45 minutes interview. Interviewer took all additional items I brought to the interview (photos, itinerary, utility bills). He has not review any evidences sent with the application, so the approval arrived the next day. |

PD 11/13/17 ; Interview 10/25/17
Great experience. Spent 20 minutes for security check and waited around 10 minutes after checked in.
Officer requested my (beneficiary) passport, ID, EAD, and husband's ID, then swore us.
Officer went through nearly every questions on I-130 with petitioner and I-485 with beneficiary. Also asked if my parents like him.
Relationship questions:
How we met?
How the website we used to meet work?
How long before we meet in person?
How it progressed (1st date, 2nd date, etc)?
Who and When the idea of marriage was brought up?
Detail of proposal (who, where, and when)?
Then, asked if I bring anything to show him. I handed 24 photos (printed in 4 on 8.5 x 11 paper), he looked at it and discuss some with us (they are mostly wedding photos and some are travelling photos) . He asked what else I bring and I handed him past travel itineraries. He said he will keep asking what else and take anything I want to give him.
At the end of the interview, he suggested starting a folder for I-751, so we will not be scrambling and got classified as fraud due to lack of evidences. He needs to review our other evidences submitted with the application and hope to give approval next day if everything looks good, else he will send RFE or request another interview. I estimated it was around 45 minutes interview time.
My case status was updated at 5:45 pm as "new card is being processed".

Timeline Comments: 5It must be very nice to be approved for EAD/AP in 61 days! Mine took 3.5 months. Have you heard any news regarding your I-485 application?
Yes, I'm so relieved with the speedy approval. We were interviewed on 10/25 and my GC is expected to arrive on 11/5.
When the officer said that your application may be classified as fraud due to lack of evidences, may I know what are the evidences that lacked with the i-130 you submitted?
@Mrs Thor
I think you misunderstood my story. My I-130 application was not classified as fraud, the officer only advised me to start preparing/saving my supporting documents for I-751, so it doesn't get classified as fraud.

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
