emailme,

Do you like to go around looking for things to get offended at? Is there something about the feeling of your panties getting in a bunch that gets you off?

Yeahhhhh..I do like it a lot. also feel really sorry to find some jerk like you in VJ.

I was very curious about the katehuber's posting and jaaaaamas's reply. See below..

katehuber's posting------------------

I think that if you come from a country similar to the USA (UK, Germany, France, Holland, Denmark, Canada etc- A a strong country where the benefits of living in that country are no different than here) than you are more than likely to have an easier interview. Several times i was asked why would someone from the UK want to move here when life there is so good - especially when you have had to give up your job, your home, friends and family. I think those that are coming for a new / better way of life are those that they are cracking down on.

Then I replied----------------------

I disagree the way you categorize the STRONG COUNTRY and those people from those STRONG COUNTRY get easier interview than others. I've seen a lot of people from WEAK COUNTRY(following your rule) get quick and easy interview. I don't care where you from, who you are.. but just don't discriminate against people regardless of nationality. The thing is that you are just one of those people to come this country thru your spouse who's a us citizen. Nothing more and nothing less.

jaaaaamas's reply------------------

I think you're definitely right about interviews being easier if you're from certain countries. I always imagine (and hope!) that interviews are much easier when you're from the UK.

Does anyone can clarify that those people from those STRONG COUNTRY get easier interview than others?

Also those people from WEAK COUNTRY always get tough, long and stressful interview?

I was very curious because I have schedule for an interview next month and my country is not listed above..

I also wonder why those UK people give up their job, home, friends, family and so much better life in their country to come to US? Because they can't find anyone in their country to share their life together? If their life and their country is so good, why don't they bring their spouse to their country?

I thought VJ is such a great place where you can share all the immigrantion issue, process and experience with people no matter where they from, what's their nationality.

Congratulations! I think you're definitely right about interviews being easier if you're from certain countries. I always imagine (and hope!) that interviews are much easier when you're from the UK.

You UK guys are sick...

Why don't you stay your country and bring your spouse to your strong country?

Congrats!! wish I could beat that 5 minutes!!

I think it all depends..there's no certain rule or timeframe for appointment letter. I don't even getting biometrics appointment but AOS interview though.

I don't know why..but San Diego is like rising star for their processing time..

Also talked to another guy in San Diego and they also got the interview letter about a month after filing.

I'm not sure about 'walk-in' biometircs yet. I think it's all depends on the location and people to deal with.

Need more real story to give a shot though.

Hey email - i am in the same boat and infopass didn't help me get an appointment when I tried, luckily the biometrics letter came in a couple weeks after that. I am in Colorado but they must be going through the same scenario.

Thanks Motu, actually my top priority is getting EAD..that way I can move out to where my wife resides and get a job out there. But my case seems going faster so far and hopefully having biomtrics and EAD process done without any delay and problem.

Thank you for your posting! I feel much better now..are you in San Diego?

I'm in Mira Mesa area. It's so nice to see you here!

Wow! It looks like San Diego people are getting their interviews really quickly, I have seen others from the area who have also had speedy interviews. Again, like you said, its always nice to see someone who lives nearby going through the same process. I live in Santee, I think thats near the Mira Mesa area????

Oh, and I just noticed you also got married the same day as me ... November 12th!!! lol

Oh..MY..Good God.. Yeah...I just noticed that you got married the same day! Ama-zing~

My wife's gonna be in San Diego this weekend, yeah..we got married but still in form of long-distance relationship..and it's her turn to visit.. lol... maybe we can hang out somewhere around San Diego.

I heard that the interview in Chula Vista office is kinda smooth and easy going for most of applicants.

How's your interview?

Even processing procedure is various.. I just got i-485 interview appointment letter yesterday before having any biometrics.

Congrats! great story and good to hear that didn' get the parking ticket.

Thank you for your posting! I feel much better now..are you in San Diego?

Hi all,

I just received a letter today and I thought this is probably a biometric appointment letter...

cause it's about time..(please see my signature...)

But it was 'request for applicant to appear for initial interview', case type: form i-485...

and local office address, date and time on the bottom. Please tell me this is the letter for interview..!!

Sorry...my first time to see this letter actually..

Anyway, I feel little weird because I never get any appointment letter for biometircs yet.

Does anyone has any experience like this? I think this is little bit off of normal processing procedure.

Is it possible to make an appointment thru infopass and have biometrics taken before the interview?

I think that way I could reduce the whole processing time and get a stamp on my passport at the interview.

If anyone has any idea what should I do with this, it would be very appreciated.

Thank you!

I think the receipt for EAD renewal should be enough to prove it.

Thank you guys! I know there's nothing I can do right now but waiting...^^

Hi all,

I know my date is way behind to most of you here, but I just wanted to check back with you and get some idea how long will it take. If you filed I-765 and/or I-485 recentely, how long did you take to receive biometrics appointment letter?

I'm currently working with H-1B visa..actually it's pending as I filed I-485....anyway, I'm planning to relocate and find a job in Washington DC area where my wife resides. Yeah....it's painful... So timing of all these process is important.

Any information would be very appreciated and good luck to all of you!

Congrats!

I know I'm way behind of you guys...but can't wait to get biometrics appointment letter.
