Hi! My case was sent to local office to have an interview also. My husband went for an interview. He was asked how's the relationship? How long we are together? How many times he visit me? Does he know that I overstayed in 2008? Did I tell him? (I did tell him the first day we meet)Very Simple question and quick. The officer asked my husband to write a letter with a form that the officer gave him. He wanted my husband to send back to local office after he sign.

I prepared so many evidences such as wedding photo album, our travelling album, his pic with my family album, letters from 3rd party for Proof of marriage, Money Transfer Receipt, Phone Bills, Travelling Receipts. The officer took our wedding album, pic of my husband and family album and letter of proof of relationship from 3rd party.

We sent the letter back to local office but we don't get anything back at all. I guess we have to be patience. My husband called USCIS and was informed that it will take 180 days for this process.

I hope this help you and hopefully, I will get mine soon, too. I filed I-130 since March 2011.

Thankfully, God can direct your hands (yes, YOUR hands) to use the telephone.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

Amanda, take control of your life and your destiny. Pick up the phone and call them yourself. Waiting for your attorney to inform you is torture. Call them and find out the answer quicker. You are in control of your life...if you want to be.
