Interview today in Portland, OR

[Michaela_Hassan 1]

Hi everybody,

today we had our AOS interview. We got there at 11:00 and waited maybe 5 mins and got called. We had a lady, very professional and nice.

Got sworn in and asked about the biographic info, then she went over the affidavit of support and told us it was sufficient. She asked Hassan the questions from the form, like if he ever was arrested etc. Then she wanted to know everything about our relationship from meeting the first time until now. She asked about his family, mine, my daughter. How do they get along, when did he meet her the first time. She wanted to know how many times I had been to Morocco and how was my time spent there. She asked for joint bills, rental agreement, anything we had jointly. We gave her rental agreement, power bill, bank statement and installment agreement of a car we bought together. She asked for pictures, I had brought an album with pics from Morocco and here, she looked at every single picture and asked questions about some. She had a sense of humor, was very thourough but always nice.

In the end she said she believed us and approved Hassan. She stamped his passport, took his EAD card and told him he will receive his green card in 2 to 3 weeks. Also gave us some instructions on how to file for lifting the conditions and when.

Shook our hands and we were on our way! Oh I also asked her what would have happened if I didnt find my appointment letter yesterday. She said it wouldn't have been a big deal, many people forget it or forget to put it in the box when they come so they just call the missing names that are on their schedule every 10 or 15 mins. I guess that varies from field office to field office.
