We just had our AOS interview today. They did not ask for one bit of information that we brought, did not look at bills, insurance cards etc, just her state id and my drivers license and our passports. They did not ask for the vaccination supplement and we did not submit one.They did however interview us separatley.

First they called Luvy, Then let her out and interviewed me, and then brought us both together.

Questions asked.

What is your job.

What do you do at your job

What is your work schedule

How did you meet

How did you meet her aunt

Who initiated the first conversation

When was the first conversation

How long till you visited her after first talking

When did you visit her

What dates were you there

Where did you stay

How did her family treat you

What where their thoughts about the two of you getting married

What kind of wedding did you have

How many people

Where was it

Where does she work

What is her schedule

How does she get to work

Does she drive

She read our address and asked if it was an apartment or house

Did you have it before she arrived

How many bedrooms

She read our phone number and asked what it was

What is your full name

Where were you born

What city

They then grilled us on discrepancies, wrong year on one of the dates, day was right but year wrong. There was confusion when she was asking Luvy questions about my stay, she thought she was asking only about my second trip and told them I stayed at her house and hotel, I told them at her aunts house first trip and hotel and her house second trip. She went on about why we did not agree on where I stayed. My wife was confused about what she was asking at this point. When they asked about where she worked I told them the Forum at Knightsbridge, she told them Sunrise assisted Living. I told the CO that they are the same thing, sunrise owns the forum, the Forum is the name of the complex but sunrise manages it. I think she understood.

Then she looked at some pictures in the photo album.

After the interview she took Luvy's I-94 card from her passport and told us that a decision will be made in 4 to 6 weeks.

I hope our confusion about exactly where I stayed does not affect the outcome.

Hope this helps,

Mike and Luvy

12-07-2005 Attempt at interim EAD at San Francisco office -- no go. Back to San Jose, where CSO (chief station officer) tells they will contact MSC via email to request permission to issue interim EAD

12-08-2005 Biometrics for AOS and EAD. Having no EAD appt letter was no problem (used EAD NOA)

The funny thing is that the other two couples who were there also had seperate interviews, they called the non USC in first and then the USC. They were still waiting when we left

good luck

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."
