I have been lurking this forum for almost two years and finally received a 'New Card is being produced' confirmation on the site as of yesterday, July 13th and wanted to provide a quick update in terms of timeline. We got our K-1 visa last April, and got married in late May 2018. We applied for AOS at the end June 2018, and completed biometrics in late July 2018. Got my EAD in late October 2018. Didn't hear anything re: an interview for about a year until June 3rd where we got notice of our interview being scheduled. Our interview was on July 9th this week in Minneapolis and we did not get an approval on the spot. Instead, we received a piece of paper with a box checked saying our case would require a review. The website was updated early yesterday morning saying our card is being produced.
Interview questions were pretty simple, a large portion of the interview was spent asking my husband (the petitioner) questions about me/our relationship/and information that was submitted in the adjustment application (dates of birth, date of marriage). The same was asked of me, and then we both were asked questions about our relationship timeline (when did we start dating? how did we meet? what are our future plans as a family? What were our future career plans? Do we have pets? Kids? etc.). We had our lawyer present with us at the meeting, and we also brought over documentation such as a photos of us since we got married/wedding invitations from friends with our address on it/shared lease/two months of statements from our joint bank account. I also brought over other documents including my vaccination record but the officer did not ask for it. They did take the photos, so would recommend bringing copies or copying the photos into a word document and printing that out to give to them. We also captioned all the photos with the date, location and names of any other people in the photos with us and their relationship to us.
Everyone here has been helpful and I quietly spent many a night over the last couple of years anxiously reading posts + looking over timelines to ease the anxiety that comes with all of the waiting. I will update my timeline fairly soon once I am able to dig up all of the documents and recall the exact dates we received NOAs, etc. For those who have reached this point, congratulations! For those who have not, keep pushing -- almost there!
