I had my interview this morning and passed! Oath scheduled for Oct 13th.

It was a really quick process. The officer spent most of her time looking through my travel dates and checking against my passports (I travel a lot due to work), but everything was fine!

Good luck everyone, so glad to be done

@canuck32, @cartage, @sunshinestate2013  There's hope! i received my interview notice for Oct 5th. You guys should be next.

I finally received my interview notification! Dated Aug 28th. Interview date is October 5th. Finally!

I'm "In Line" as of 12/12!

.

I just received my biometrics appointment!

Awesome would you like to share your interview experiance?

I wrote a full review on my timeline. Check it out!

Green card in hand!!! So excited!!!

Way to go is there any items that you can think of that you forgot to bring to your interview that someone might over look bringing? My interview letter says bring a cerified copy of my marriage certificate but I already sent them one do I have to give them another one or just bring a regular copy? anymore info will help as my interview is this thur, thanks

I had sent a certified copy of the marriage certificate with my package, but I took another one with me to the interview just in case. She did ask to see it! Maybe you should get another one, it can't hurt to have it with you...

CarO--Many congrats!!!! Any tips re: interview? --RK&Inday

Just to remain calm and bring a lot of supporting documents. Even though they may not ask for them, it makes you feel more prepared.

Good luck to all!

GC approved! Now we just have to wait for it to arrive in the mail!!

Ours is going well too. I applied the on June 5th and we have the interview tomorrow. Hopefully we will get approved.

Good luck to everyone!

Mine took around a week, because they were very particular and checked my education and previous work experience abroad. Be patient...

We have our interview tomorrow at 7am!! Wish us luck!

Hey, I'm from Argentina as well. I did my undergrad in UBA. I was able to get a job in the US even before I graduated (they sponsored my visa). After a few years I returned to Buenos Aires. And after that, I came to the US again to do an MBA, which I finished last month. I was admitted and I even got a scholarship. It's totally doable.

Tha credentials of the university you choose in Argentina is important, though...

Regarding the grading system, it's true that it is different, just present a note explaining the system and that will help you.

Good luck to you!

Yesterday I received email and text informing of my interview date: August 21.

Yay! Can't wait!

Still waiting for my work authorization though...

Hi guys,

I'm new to the forum, I also filed in June.

It's been 10 days since my biometrics and still no news... freaking out a little bit.

I will keep you updated!
