sleepless in OR

All I am doing is relating our experience. I think an astute officer would be able to tell if you were trying to pull a fast one. There is a lot involved in communication other than the actual words spoken. Anyway, each to their own as to whether to have a third party interpreter. In our case, we didn't, and all went well. That's all I was trying to say.

Actually, you can interpret for your spouse during the interview if they are not fluent in English. We had a successful interview yesterday, and I translated everything - from the oath to the very end - for my husband to make sure he understood well what was being said. There was no issue with me translating.
