K1 recipients-- do they need a second interview??

[ashtinandjoe 0]

Hello, We received our visa and are married and settled! Been married 3 months now. We've applied for adjustment of status and today our case changed to "interview scheduling process"... It did mention that not everyone will need an interview. I'm wondering if because he's English and has already had an interview for his k1- will he have to be interviewed for the greencard? And if so, what do you know about this next step in the process? What are we to expect and what should we bring? Thanks!

Maybe. (smile) Sorry, but there's no firm answer.

Keep an eye on the mail. If they want an interview, they'll send you a letter inviting you to one. It would not be surprising for them to have you in for another interview. They want to physically see you guys here, see you interact with each other, and reassure themselves that you guys are in a real, loving marriage. They also want another set of fingerprints and a picture (they *always* want another biometrics appointment...smile).

If you get an interview letter, it will usually tell you want to bring with you. At a minimum, I would take both of your passports, his paperwork to date, and copies of any forms you've submitted...both in the UK and here. Start thinking about things that have both of your names on them...bank accounts, lease agreements, etc. Eventually they will want to see proof that you guys "own" things together, so start working on that now.

It's nothing to worry about, and almost all of us have gone through it.

Keep watching on here. You'll see other peoples' experiences and what they went through.

Regards,

Bill

Take a look at some of the threads in this forum to get an idea about GC interviews/waivers/approvals, etc. They are very frequent topics at this forum.

Good luck on your immigration journey.

If AOS status has changed to Testing and Interview status, then he will have to interview again.

It depends on red flags and if the local office needs work.

You may or may not get an interview, sounds like you will. I did not and my status stayed in acceptance from Nov '13 to July '14.
