Initial interview - interview right before you receive green card

[bond 2]

Hi guys!

I got finally my notice for the initial interview!

I am collecting all the documents which are on the list they send me and I was wondering what kind of documents should I bring as “supporting evidence of relationship”?

So far I have:

- Insurance paper for our car (name of my wife and me is on it)

- Bank statements proofing that we have a joint account

- Some pictures

- We live with my wife parents, so they signed a piece of paper saying that my wife and me live at their place (there is no lease document which states both of our names, therefore we did this)

I just graduated and my wife is still going to school so we don't have any property that we owe. The car is on my name (should I bring a copy of the title?). We also have seperate health insurances. She has one in the U.S. and I have one from my home country Germany, because it is way cheaper for me for the first year. We will get a healt insurance togehter once I have a job (and of couse I need the green card first).

Question 1:

Are these papers enough as a proof? What kind of documents would you also recommend?

Question 2:

Also, on the check list is says bring “all documentation establishing your eligibility for Lawful Permanent Resident status.” What kind of papers are these?

Question 3:

How long does it approx. take until I receive my green card after the interview?

Thanks for the help

Did you enter with a K1 visa? If so, your evidence is probably enough. They don't expect a lot for a K1 because they know you're a newlywed, and expect that your relationship was probably examined to some degree at the consulate.

Besides the things specifically mentioned on the checklist, bring the originals for any photocopied documents you sent with the AOS petition. Documentation "establishing your eligibility for Lawful Permanent Resident status" includes such things as your marriage certificate, your K1 visa, etc. Yeah, I know you sent copies of all that stuff already, but they may want to inspect the original documents.

If you're approved, you should receive the green card in two or three weeks after the interview.

As Jim stated your evidence looks okay for a K1, which I can see you are from previous posts.

Please update your timeline so others can benefit from your experience and your profile to reflect that you are now AOS (pending). The timeline function is up the top called "immigration timelines". To update your profile click on "settings" (up the top right of the page) then the "profile" tab, then "change profile information" (which should be the default one that opens). Then scroll down to Immigration status where it currently says nothing and change it to "AOS (pending)".
