    Ok guys, interview went well, and I was approved on the spot! ?

     

    I'll try not to ramble. : Interview was scheduled at 11:30, we arrived at 11 sharp. There were only a few people before us but we waited a whole hour before we were called in, so finally around 12:20 we went in. First thing the officer asked for was our IDs, I gave him my passport and husband gave his DL, officer made copies, then we walked to his office, and he apologized about the long wait. He took a look at our initial packet and asked us to confirm that we were there because I was applying for a green card based on marriage, we answered yes, and then we were sworn in. 

    He reviewed our documents, then said he was going to ask us about our marriage and asked if we had any more documents for him as proof of our marriage (we said yes and handed him bank statements, photos, cards from family and friends, etc).  

     

    He began by asking my husband what was my full legal name, and my husband was so nervous he forgot my last name! Keep in mind I have two legal last names, so he forgot the first one and said the second one instead, the officer half chuckled and said it was odd that he didn't know my name, but continued with the questions. He asked him basic info, his DOB, address, when we got married, phone number, where he worked. Then asked him what my DOB was, and he answered the wrong year (at this point I couldn't believe my husband was so nervous to the point he was forgetting info he already knows about me ??) so the officer was not pleased with his answers so far. He asked me if my husband's answer was right and so I answered the correct year. Then he asked him about our relationship: when we met, where, how long before we got serious, what our dating period was like (if we went for coffee, movies, dinner, etc) when we moved in together, and if he proposed officially. 

     

    He then asked me about our living situation, what do we do on a daily basis, when we're at home, do we go out, where, what did we do yesterday, what did we do last weekend, who cooks, who cleans. He mentioned my English was very good, and asked me if I had been in the US when I was younger (I said yes, I've come to the US on short visits since I was 6). He then checked the bank statements and went through our photos (we printed about 68 lol ?), he joked about how my hair hasn't always been purple (current color). So he kept some photos and there were so many that he didn't even finish going through all of them, said he didn't need to see more lol. And he said it was a good thing we had so many pictures because it was odd that my husband didn't know my full name, to which my husband responded that he was nervous, and I mentioned that he sometimes has trouble pronouncing my last names because they're Spanish names (which is true), so the officer chuckled. He then asked me the Yes or No questions, and when I moved in with my husband. Then asked me when was my last entry into the US. He kept my original I-94.  He took our bank statements and went out to make copies of them. He came back and said he was going to approve our case, gave me a welcome letter and a letter explaining the conditional residence and removal of conditions, and that I would receive my green card in the next couple of weeks. And we were out. The interview itself was probably about 25 minutes, the rest was him looking at our paperwork, so we left the office at around 1 pm. 

     

    I know I said I wouldn't ramble but I tend to do that lol sorry about that. Overall the IO was nice, not harsh, and smiled and made casual comments throughout, but still kept a serious and professional demeanor, which I'm sure is what is expected of any IO.

     

    So guys, those of you who came here on K-1 visas, I'm sure you will have even easier interviews than mine. Good luck to all of you! ?

    Congratulations! I'm very happy for you :) and omg I can't believe your husband did that haha, I'm glad the officer understood how nervous he was

    When you guys made SR to National Benefit Center's customer service, do you guys also wait term which is 30 days between one SR call and second  or third call?

    I didn't get any RFE, RFIE and I've already make 2 SR call. Today is 115 days, I'm going CRAZY!

    my last SR call's reply was March 2nd, so I just tried to one more SR call, but the woman who called with me said if I want to make another SR call, I need to wait another 30day. 

     

    I'm depressed.... : ( That mail simply said "Your case is currently under review. You should receive a decision or notice of other action shortly.

    How long "Shortly" is for USCIS"? ack! 

     

    Btw, I saw the last time, I could also made SR the e-request, but it doesn't show anymore. Do you know how to make E-REQUEST for I765?

     

    Thanks in advance, and congrats above people!!  

    I did two service requests online and didn't wait 30 days between each one
