Please allow me to share my case with you, especially whom have a similar situation as mine. I got an approval for my green card on the spot :star: I am on F1 with a valid I-20, living apart with my husband. I am living in CA due to school, and he is a nevada resident who travels a lot due to his work.

My interview was amazingly easy one. We had a lawyer with us for our interview. What we prepared to prove our marriage were

1. Joint bank account

2. Jointly tax return doc

3. photo album including our wedding ( quite simple one at his house in Reno ) and pictures with our friends, family etc.

4. Travel itineraries

5. our email correspondences ( from 2004-2012, we have been dating for 10yrs, I was in Japan for 8yrs and moved to America on F1 in 2010 )

Actually, the interviewer didn't ask for any specific proof at our interview. Our lawyer prepared all the docs including the proofs above, so she ( our interviewer ) checked those docs ( approx 2 inches ) most of our interview time. Then she asked me questions from I-485, which I answered No to all.

We were not questioned about our current living status. She asked me if I was still on F1 valid ( I said yes ).

My husband was asked about his work and told her that he would stay in Japan for 8mons before on his biz.

That's it!

I have been so anxious about my case, living apart, however, it turned out to be nothing to worry about at all.

I saw some people posted similar situation as mine here for asking some advices but couldn't find anybody who got approval like I did. So I hope my case would be a sort of encouragement for the couple like us.

Like many advise here, you will be fine as long as your marriage is bona fide :yes:

I perceive that we were lucky to have an unbiased interviewer for our case though.

I hope all of you will pass their interviews. Good luck to you all :yes:
