Hey guys sorry for the delay with the update on my case, the internet was down for a couple days!!

OK...here's what happen, my husband and I left our home at 4:45 am...it was my idea to leave way early because my husband is always getting lost....I called him the "lost God".. :lol: Anyway we got in Denver at exactly 5:45am, drove around to find the building,we pass it once!! didn't see the BIG 12000 on the poster!!

We stopped at Mcdonalds and had break fast..then we head back to the building...enter at 7:00am go thru security, the whole nine yards...we were the first to arrive but after about 5 or 10 minutes people started coming in. We sat for about 10 minutes before my name was called!!for some reason I wasn't nervous at all...more anxious though!!

My husband and I was greeted by a really nice IO in her early 30s, she was really approachable and immediately I felt comfortable...she led us to her office swore us in and then proceed with questions. she confirmed what I had on my I-485, she asked me my husband's birthdate, our address, when did we get married, if we have any children, the YES & NO questions etc... she only asked my husband 2 questions: his SSN and if he's still active duty in the Army...then she said "dumb question" obviously he is, as my hubby was in his uniform :lol::lol:, as she continue she asked if I have anything for her, due to the fact that I sent most of the evidence we had with the first application,all I showed her was pictures(commenting on how beautiful our daughter is :P ), life insurance, military ID, our daughters original birth certificate, and a copy of our joint account and as I was handing it to her I explained the suituation with the statements and she said thats fine :D....At the time when I filed I used my maiden name instead of my marriage name so I asked if it's possible to change it and she said yes!!..Then she told us that all my name checks has been cleared so everything look great so she is going to go ahead and APPROVE me, then she explained the removing of conditions and gave us a form explaining how to do so and the possibility of a waived interview next time around and so on. I was so happy when I left the room smiling from ear to ear...but Im still in denial I have to see the actual card to believe that it's over for NOW!!

Just get a chance to check my email because our internet was down, and I got the email from CRIS stating that card production orderd on the 29th!!

sorry for the long post just wanted to give you guys specific details of my experience!!hope it will be helpful for those who have interviews coming up...GOOD LUCK and thank you guys for ur advices & encouragements, I am really greatful!! :thumbs::thumbs:

Passage Revelation 19:11:

11And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

"satan is real and he's playing for keeps
God is realer and we are His sheep
which side are you on, CHOOSE, start moving your feet
choose JESUS and have ETERNAL PEACE" by GOD to me on 9/26/10 about 2am
Thank you Jesus!!!!
