Our appointment was for 8AM. We were taken in 20 minutes late. The man questioned our Texas state wedding as not being valid!!!!! We had a legal marrage done in accord with Texas marriage law. We had the proper legal papers to show it. Yet he claimed it was not valid! We had to show him ever small detailed piece of paper from the wedding. I am glad we did not throw out some of the junk papers after the wedding. I am also glad we carried them with to the interview. The questions and comments were at time not professional nor proper. What happened at the interview mades me embarrassed to be an American!
After 35 minutes defending a legal and proper fully documented Texas wedding, they were not happy with the shoot records. So we had to go see a Civil Sur. to get them approved. Only two of the 30+ listed doctors in Columbus area will do only the shoot records. All the rest demanded $300+ for a full physical. After getting the shoot records to the office, we were approved. ... read complete review

My wife came in on VWP; we were married about two months after her arrival, but weren’t able to send in the AOS paperwork until almost two months later; she was therefore out of status.
Because of everything I'd read on VJ, we decided to lawyer up. We found an excellent attorney here in Ohio (feel free to PM me for his contact info). He confirmed everything the VJ forums say about VWP overstays being deportable. I asked him point-blank whether my wife should just leave and not risk deportation (she was still under the 180 days of overstay to avoid a 3-year ban). He didn’t make any guarantees, but he said that it was unlikely that my wife would be deported and/or taken into custody at the interview (in case of a bad outcome). A few weeks prior, he had a client who successfully adjusted status from a short (about a week) VWP overstay, so he gave us a good chance of success. He noted that, if he were to represent us, he is familiar enough with the USCIS officers and ICE... read complete review

my husband and i got there at about 7:40am for our 8am appointment. My husband got called in at 8:35am and i got called in about 8:50am when he came out. It went relatively nice and the officers and everyone was nice. The IO just asked questions about our married life and families.
I got approved on the spot but my passport wasn't stamped. The IO took a copy of my AP but let me keep my EAD in case i got a job before my card came in the mail. It was overall good experience and i'm happy i got approved.
Thank you VJ

Our appointment was set for 9:15 am. We arrived at 9:00 am and there was a very long line to get checked for security. While we were waiting in line, one of the security officers collected our appointment notifications. It was quick. The use of iPods, cell phones, or other electronics is not allowed. Once we cleared security, we sat down and waited for our name to be called. We waited about 5-10 minutes until my name was called.
We walked into an office. The guy was very courteous, introduced himself and a lady that would be sitting in our interview. He explained we could be videotaped. He swore both of us in. He then asked me (the beneficiary) a series of basic questions (what's your name, DOB, SSN, parents' name, etc). Then he asked my husband the same. He asked if we had children (NO), then the lady asked if I had any children of my own (NO). He asked me a series of yes or no questions, like have you ever taken drugs, been a prostitute, a communist, ect (NO). Hi... read complete review

It was really fast. I went there with my husband and our daughter (9 months old at the time) The consul called me and I went to her office. She asked me how did Don and I met, when and the date we got married. Then she asked the copy of our baby birth certificate. She also asked if this was our first marriage and if we had other kids. First marriage for both, first kid for both...and that was it. She did not want to see pictures, or even interview my husband. We left and 2 weeks later I received my letter, few days later my greencard!!!! No conditions!!!!
