Hi everybody!
I passed the interview for a K1 today. Everything went smooth. The CO only asked me about my previous stay in the US (I was an au pair there for 18 months) and gave me the infamous pink slip.
The only thing that was not perfect is me being silly enough to have left my cell-phone in the locker in the security booth and not taking the number of the locker thingy. So when I went back to pick it up, I described what i had left there, and even told the guy the pin-code to my cell, so he could turn it on and see )) After that I was done and was calling everybody I knew to share the good news! 
Good luck to everybody! |

My husband and I arrived a half hour early for our 9:35 am appointment. But we were not seen until 11, so 2 hrs in the waiting room with no clocks. Good times!
Finally, my name was called, husband (the USC) and I were sworn in and sat down. The interviwer, a nice middle-aged american woman seemed pleasant and friendly, unlike some other officers we saw in the window. Those guys didn't even smile back at the kids who were going in with their parents for the interview.
Anyway, first, she asked me all the stuff from I-485. Acutally, she only asked me the terrorism/drugs/prostitution ?-s. And other info, like my maiden name, and my parents' names she read out to me, and asked to confirm. She also asked me to confirm my phone number and my signature on the form.
After that, the officer proceeded to sking us about
How we met?
When?
How soon did we start going out?
Exclusively?
When did he introduce me to his mom?
Has he met any of my family?
Who and when proposed?
How did we stay in touch while i was gone? (we met when i was an au pair in the US, then i had to leave, and we filed for K1, it took a while for me to come back to the States)
Where was the wedding?
When?
Who came?
Where did we go after?
when we told her the name of the hotel, she got very excited and asked how it was, because her husband and her have been planning to go there for a while but still haven't had a chance. Nice small talk.
Then she asked for some joint documents. I got excited, thinking "Now is my time to shine", and I was glad I had a chance to prove my husband wrong, and show him I was NOT panicking for no reason. I just wanted to be prepared for everything. But instead, after I presented her with our joint medical insurance, car insurance, and a couple phone bills ( I highlighted both our names on every piece of paper), she said OK, thats enough. And printed out the "Congratulations" notice. It went very well, exceot for a very long wait. |

*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.
