AOS approved at interview

Rania · November 16, 2009

I just wanted to share some good news. After having done all the paperwork myself on a very complicated case (especially the K-1), my husband has finally been approved for his Greencard. This site was tremendously helpful.

We had our interview on Tuesday, and it couldn't have been easier. During the K-1 process, I got pregnant and our daughter was born. This fact helped our case get approved with very little questions. They asked how we met and when I got pregnant (to check it with dates in my passport, I assume). After this, the officer was more interested in tourist tips to London than anything else, as he was going on vacation there in a few weeks (my husband and I met there)! My husband's name was not on the birth certificate as he wasn't in the States in time for our daughter's birth, but we were in the process of establishing paternity. The officer didn't even want to wait until the paternity case was approved as it would take months, he just approved us on the spot. I had so much evidence and put together so much paperwork, and I barely had to show a thing. The officer was such a kind man and the interview was nothing more than two questions and verification that we lived together. He got approved on November 10 and came to the States on June 6th. Not even six months later.

I hope that this success story will calm some of the nerves of those going through this process. If your marriage is legitimate, it's so easy. The main issue is the waiting game.

Good luck to everyone!
