Our interview was the same day as yours in Chicago. We had the same cort of experience. We got there, we were seen by a rather large african american man. He asked for Hilarios original BC and our marriage license. Then he verified some of Hilario's info (DOB, when he entered the country, where he was born) and he asked for our reciept showing we paid the fine for Hilario entering illegally (when he was 5!!). Then he said he had everything he needed to make a decision. He said he would notify us by mail. I am so freakin nervous. He didn't ask ANY personal questions, like how we met or anything. I am really up in the air at this point!!

Oh Wow!!! What time was your interview? Ours was 10:59 A.M. We waited like an extra 10-15 minutes, not long at all. Yep, sounds like we got the same guy. The only thing I'm concerned about it, if they were going to approve the interview and issue green card, I thought they pulled the I94 arrival/departure card. Hmmm, guess we jsut have to wait and see. Now the I130 hasn't been approved as of yet when we went for the interview, so don't know if they will continue their investigation or not.

Out interview was 9:59 am, but we were out of there by 9:15, we got there WAY early and they got us in and out. Hilario doesn't have the I94, he entered illegally as a child. Our I130 was approved earlier this year so that can't be what they are waiting for with us. I think it must be the FBI name check or something but do they issue an EAD without those security checks? Hilario got his EAD in July, you would think if he was approved for that he would be approved right away for the Green Card. Who knows! Keep me updated on your case and I will do the same!!!

We went to the inform pass this early morning... and yes, we are all in the same boat with FBI name check and there is no way for us to know when it will be done. The longest time the immigration officer knew for this process was 4 yrs (no longer) :blink: So, I guess we are really in game and it has just started. I will keep updating any time I have new status on my case. Just want to wish you guys the best luck!

Yes, he can still get the EAD card. I think we might be in security or fbi name check too. Just a feeling I have.

i think pulling or not pulling the i-94 card off doesnt really matter. they took my husbands at the interview and we still are waiting for fbi name checks almost 2 years later. he just got another one when he traveled. so not taking yours probably means nothing.

Maybe you're right. But pulling the I94 card gives you affirmation that you were approved pending FBI name check. I don't have that surety.

Andrea

2 years name check? My God! I would think if they found something, wouldn't they have found something within this time frame? Good luck. I hope it all pulls through soon.

There are a bunch of us members waiting to adjust for years, and even more on other forums I belong to.

I am going to pull out the handy-dandy John&Marlene VJ vocab. If you are in this position - ie namechecks, you are not aproved yet. You are pending AOS.

I have no clue what boat we're in. I know the I130 hadn't been approved yet at the time of AOS interview. So don't know. Have to wait for letter I guess.
