We had our interview today in Milwaukee, WI. We are '' approved pending FBI checks'' The said Simon's check has not come back yet.

Interview took all of 10 minutes, if that. The guy interviewing us talked at the speed of light and we could hardly keep up with the answers before he asked another question. He seemed happy with all of our prepared paperwork and our answers to his questions.

Here are some of the questions he asked for those of you who want to prepare....

Name, address

Employment

He asked how we met, right down to the specific site we met on.

Asked about our engagement.

Asked if we had any children or had ever been married before.

Asked if Simon had a criminal record back in the UK ( he asked this 3 times )

He asked if I was working

That was about it, no detailed personal questions or anything.

Glad it is over, but back to the waiting game!

Good luck to all the August Interviews!

Our interview was yesterday and everything went like clockwork. The interviewer didn't really ask any personal questions. He wanted to see my IDs where I had changed my name and that my husband's name was on the lease and my insurance. He asked about kids and prior mariages, and he had my husband to state our complete address. The only thing that kind of threw me was after stating I was pregnant, he asked to see an apointment card from my OB/GYN. I started scrambling through my purse trying to find it, and just came up with a business card which he accepted without a problem. My Husband had applied for his EAD in Feb along with our filing the AOS but we got a RFI in March asking for a copy of his birth certificate that we had left out. We sent that in and waited and waited, and never heard anything more about it. I noticed yesterday in our file that they had the letter I sent (I actually saw the envelope)but had never bothered to aprove it. I have no idea for how long it has been at the local office but I guess they got it and just decided to give us the Green card apointment instead of bothering with the EAD paperwork. So glad we spent the money. :P Anyway the interviewer said the green card should be arriving in 1-2 weeks so we are very excited. Thanks for all your help VJ people, We couldn't have gotten this far without you.

Ours was this morning (August 4th) in SLC. NO worries! She was kinda quiet at first, but we were all laughing by the end of the interview. My husband does not have his social yet (we waited too long) and I was a bit nervous about that, but she did not seem to mind with all the other evidence we had.

Done for another few years. Hard to believe he has been here almost a year.

Good luck to everyone and be sure to post your overall interview experience. I know it helped me!
