Review Topic: Adjustment of Status

We had an interview at the Boston USCIS two days ago. We were approved on the spot!

We arrived ~15 min before the appointment time. Did the temperature check before walking to the front desk, then presented the interview letter to the front desk receptionist. She asked if we traveled out of state recently and we said no. She wrote a number on the letter, gave it back to us and said have a seat and wait for that number to be called.

We sat in the waiting room probably for 20 min or so (definitely felt longer than that!). There were four interview rooms. When our number was called, we walked toward the room where our immigration officer was waiting, holding the door open for us. He greeted us and asked me (the beneficiary) to come into his office alone while my husband (the petitioner) waited outside.

I walked into the room, and the officer closed the door. After swearing under an oath, I got seated. He asked for a passport and the interview... read complete review

Interview today went very smoothly. We arrived about 15 minutes ahead of schedule, as directed, and security took a few minutes. The agent came and got us about 5 minutes after the interview time, and interviewed us both together. He started off explaining that we had a good case, and that's why he wasn't separating us.

No hard questions, aside from my nerves when he asked for 2019 Tax Transcripts instead of Tax Returns and I didn't have them. He asked some basic questions of each of us (partner's birthday, parents' names) and asked my husband a random selection of the Yes/No questions from the I-485. At the end he had us tell him together about how we met/dated/got married, and there was some laughing and joking around. Then he said "Okay, you're totally married. I think we're done" and said he'd submit the approval on the spot. We got the email notification that the card was being produced within two hours of leaving the appointment.

Tips for Boston office:

Dress business casual. Prefer not to wear a suit.
Try taking public transport. 
If driving in, prepare for $$$ parking.
Multiple garages near building but bad sign directions.
Typically takes us 30 mins to reach office but today all routes had accidents so it took us 1 hour 40 mins. Always account for the unknown. Or get a new yorker partner like me.
You will most likely be separately interviewed. Typically, the petitioner goes in first with all docs and evidences. Boston officers are generally very friendly.
If you have an attorney, the officer can offer you to go in with your spouse instead of going in with your attorney. Our attorney recommended going in with them instead.
Entrance foe visitors is on Cambridge street so try looking for signs or park at Boston food market garage.
When you enter the building, you will be asked to remove belt, shoes and jacket like at an airport TS... read complete review

Really good experience. Our interviewer was friendly and put us at ease right away. We did have to wait about 20 minutes to be called from our original appointment time. We were seen together but the interviewer said they often separate, especially now due to COVID. Only 3 people can be in the room so if you have an interpreter or a lawyer, you will likely be separated.

We had our appointment set very early in the morning (6:45 am). We arrived on time and waited for half an hour for the officer to call us.
Interview toke less than 15 mins. She cross-verified the info mentioned on the petition and asked general questions (mainly about where have we been during the last year and about our residence and addresses).
