Interview Scheduled

[Cultclassic92 10]

Hey guys, sorry if this is in the wrong Topic. I checked my case status on Monday that said my interview has been scheduled! I just wondered how long it takes to receive the interview notice by mail as I'm already stressing I think way too much on getting everything together, that and the actual interview itself. Bothers me a lot that we are still currently living with my husband's mother, even though we plan to move to another State once we get some money saved up. Just hoping that won't be a problem if we are asked at the interview about that.

I think it usually takes about 1-1,5 weeks to get the actual interview notice in the mail. 

Do you guys have anything joined? Like a joined bank account, you stated as a beneficiary at your husbands health insurance and (if applicable) car insurance, are you on your husbands or FIL's phone plan? That are some good proofs for people who don't have their own bills. Also, I know someone who lived with her inlaws for a few years and on top of the above they had sworn affidavits from friends and family members that their marriage was real together with an explanation from the inlaw why they lived there instead of having their own place. I'm sure if you show things like this (if they even ask for it) you'll be fine as long as your marriage is real

We have a joint bank account and I was a dependent on my husband's taxes from last year. I will be a dependent on his health insurance which kicks in start of next month. We also have a gym membership and I am under his phone plan. Is there any sort of template friends/family would need to go by when writing an affidavit?

You have enough without affidavits. Those don't carry that much weight.  Take some snapshots of your wedding day or the obligatory pose in front of the Christmas tree 😂. Do you have driver licenses showing living at the same address?

I currently have a learners card and my husband has his driver's license. Since I made my post, my interview letter arrived in the mail today, yet I was told by USCIS yesterday when I called that it had not been scheduled.
