just had AOS interview and got approved :)

[andec0 0]

just got approved for conditional, two year green card, (24hrs ago!) whoop whoop

what a relief.

here are the questions that were asked, in no particular order. it was more of a conversation than an interrogation, maybe lasted 12mins.

wife is the immigrant, hubby is US citizen

to wife: are you employed? (yes)

do you have any pictures? (yes, already submitted in the file. the officer located them, showed no interest in seeing other pics that were brought along. sent in 5 with original package)

did u get married via a wedding or city hall? (city hall) do you plan on having a "real" wedding? (no, would rather travel and see parents}

to hubby: have you met her parents? (yes)

why have you not met hubby's (poor relationship with them and don't want to get involved with family squabble. officer was satisfied with this answer, didn't press further)

to hubby directly: why did you marry wife?

to wife directly: what were you attracted to in hubby when you first met him?

to wife, directly from forms already filled out: are you a communist? been involved in prostitution? been arrested? do drugs? (you could see my checked boxes on the sheet, but he had to ask any way)

to wife: have you ever been on medicaid or other social services? (no)

to both: the house you live in is it rented or owned? (rented) how much rent?

to both: have we traveled anywhere (no, hubby's went back to finish classes so have had no time or money to travel)

and then we were sent back out to the waiting room

when the officer came back to get us, like 10mins later, he asked wife if she had renewed her passport at any time. (yes. perplexed)

do you have the old, expired passport? (no. what?!) officer: well, you don't have any stamps in your passport, i can't find anything on you...

wife reminded him Canadians don't get stamps, we just get scanned. officer replied with a "oh ya ya, right! ok, well congratulations, you're a permanent resident now." haha and the officer presents the passport with the stamp in it...so he had us already approved but still wanted to clarify the passport issue. gah.

hope that helps anyone who is going in to their interview soon.

be over-prepared, but you all should do all right if nothing unusual is with your case, such as asylum, deportation etc.

GOOD LUCK.
