Me and my wife had our interview last week and were recommended for approval. The interview went much easier than I expected. I have been VERY nervous about it for a long time. It's hard to have your future plans in the hands of someone else as I'm sure you all know!

The woman who interviewed us was very nice. She asked mainly questions about addresses, parents last names, birth places etc. She didn't want to see letters I had some friends write. She did look at photos we brought and those seemed to help our cause alot. She asked when we met, if we had visited each other often. Then she told us that we should be fine and to watch for the green card in the mail. She then handed us a recommendation for approval letter.

A little background on us... we met a couple years ago. Got married in late June of last year in the US and sent our packet in late November.

Everyone had been telling me not to worry since we had gotten married for all the right reasons and were trying to do things the right way. I knew that was true but its still nerve racking.

CONGRATULATIONS! Thank you for sharing your experience.

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
