Oh my even for the ead?

EAD probably not. I thought you were asking in general.

 

There's been some discussion this last week that we should see our EAD earlier than estimated. I am being hopeful.

Sooo we just got a case status update.  It says our interview was scheduled.  Considering we sent the packet at the end of July and did fingerprints 3 weeks ago, this seems way too fast doesn't it?  It just changed 2 days ago from 'interview ready to be scheduled'.  Could this be a red flag since it is so much faster than normal?

Where are you guys in California?

Hello . So like I promised . I had my interview today at Charlotte NC . It was very fast , first after the security you have to wait in the information office there they give us our number for the appointment and they directed us to the appointment waiting room .

The officer was very nice and kind

She asked first for our passports and my husband (citizen) ID. 

1-She asked to my husband where and when we met .

2- she asked when and where we get married

3- when we arrived in the USA with the k1 visa and k2 and where

4-she asked my husband if he knows my father and my mother names

5- she asked my hubby my city of birth and citizenship

6- if he knows my daughter (k2) birthday

7-she asked our address here in the USA

8- she asked to my daughter my husband Full name

And after it was just security questions

She asked if I had more docs to add to our case

I just brought wedding pictures she looks at them and kept one( she said she loves my dress 😉)

She took our pictures and fingerprints

And said she going to review all the docs and make her decision.🤝

She was very friendly I was very blessed.

On my way home 30mn after I checked on the app and surpriiiiiiiiiiiise

And my status changed to

"  new card is being processed...."

Very blessed day thank Jesus 

My miracle .🙏🏿

Please help. I received the interview letter and they ask to bring an interpreter if my husband does not speak English fluently . He doesn't. He understands a little. Should I pay an interpreter or can I translate for him. Please help if you been in that position. Thank you.

I did a little searching on other forums because that might be my problems in a few months.  I would bring someone just in case to translate or hire a translator.  I don't even have an interview date and already researching interpreter fees for the day.  UGH... why me @emekus94

Errrrr

Ayeeee girl. I swear- that struggle got us for real 

but really-- they make one bring an interpreter? Good riddance.

@Dot13 - am pretty sure IF they ask you to bring an interpreter, it can't be you. UNLESS u are certified as a translator
the whole point is they don't want things getting lost in translation and nothing is worse than someone's spouse translating/potentially telling them what to say. 
I suggest you pose this question to the general VJ forum and see if people know what's up. Because I personally haven't come across this in the AOS stage-- I know what happens at the embassy stage and all

You or your lawyer cannot be an interpreter (Conflict of Interest). However, you can bring an adult friend who will be able to interpret impartially and without bias.
