From my understanding,   the new administration they want to require every marriage based case to have an interview,  under Biden he had many of these waived.

We could've submitted Dec. 1st but didn't get it in until Dec. 11th.  I have this feeling that had we gotten it in earlier, we would have made it before the new policy and gotten approved without interview.

We had our interview and the 10 year Green Card was approved.  Now just waiting for it in the mail.

The interviewer basically asked our entire story. How did we meet? Where? Where did I propose? Do both families like the marriage? She asked about a couple pieces of evidence that we brought. One was a photo collage of my recent birthday party and the officer asked the beneficiary to name the people in the photos. The other was an affidavit from our interior designer. She asked about various projects we did with the designer. One thing I was perplexed by was the officer asked why were y'all using a dating app. The officer looked older but not that old. Online dating is very common among millennials and I never really had a particular reason other than why not try it? She said we should expect the new GC in a few weeks.

Interesting! We also met online and my husband is almost 14 years older than me and I was 51 when we got married. Looking forward to my interview, should I get one!

 

Congratulations to you.

Joining the club. My wife is the beneficiary and we filed on December 2024. Received the biometric and extension letters, and we are just waiting, probably to the end of the year to file for her citizenship. The case is actively under review.

Hey, I am so confused. My husband has a pending I-751 on file that was submitted dec of 2024. We did move August of 2024 and submitted the AR-11 informing USCIS but I was unaware of another form called the I 865 that says the sponsor should fill out with 30 days of the move. It's been a year since the move, but unsure if I fill out this form or does this apply to those who used a joint sponsor

Yes both the sponsor and the lawful permanent resident needs to inform USCIS of change of address regardless of a joint sponsor or not. File the form I-865 ASAP. It has to be mailed if memory serves.

 

All the best to you!

Yes, both main and joint sponsors need to file it when they move. Within 30 days of moving.

 

Better file late than never.

Yes it needs to be filed and the joint sponsor needs to file the I-865 as well. It needs to be filed by mail. Here's the link to the I-865 page on the USCIS website which has all the instructions:

We don't have a joint sponsor,  we didn't need one when we did the AOS

Oh sorry from your post I thought you guys had one. Then just the I-864 sponsor has to fill it out and send it in.
