Review Topic: Adjustment of Status

We had a 7:45am interview at Federal Plaza building. There was line but thankfully the wait was not too long. We went up to the floor indicated on our letter (cant remember now) and waited for our names to be called. Must have waited 10-15 minutes when the African American female IO called our name. She took us to her office and made us take an oath and started with the yes/no questions.
After that she asked for evidence of our marriage which we had plenty so we started pouring those on her desk ... combine lease, joint tax, tons of picture which my wife went through with her quickly. Then we showed her our combine travel itineraries including the upcoming trip to Puerto Rico and she got interested all of a sudden. We had a bit of a chat on where we were planning to stay (Vieques), etc. She was satisfied over all and asked us to go back in the waiting room and wait for her. Waited 5 minutes and she came back with our passports and mine with I-551 stamp ... read complete review

Review Topic: Adjustment of Status

Our appointment was for 1:45pm, we got there at 1:05pm. The atmosphere was pretty intense and there weren't many smiles to go around...(The front desk woman was busy with personal business on the phone, and wasn't very helpful or pleasant, so I had check with the (sour)lady behind the counter to make sure we were being remembered/that an IO was given our file and notified that we were here.) We waited to be called for about 2 hrs. Talked politics/read some magazines we had bought in the meantime. There were on average 5 couples (most with at least one child) waiting with their attorneys speaking in hushed tones.

We eventually got called by a polite gentleman of South Asian descent. He was very stern until after he swore us in, then he was very warm. He first requested IDs and original birth certificates etc. Then, he asked very personal questions that indicated he wanted to get a better sense of who we were. For example, what qualities did we like about each other. What... read complete review

Review Topic: Naturalization

I waited almost 5 hrs to be called. The officer was very nice though. He apologized for the lateness. I was more impatient than nervous.

Review Topic: Adjustment of Status

Despite the sign at the check-in window stating that the wait would be 2-3 hours, we waited only about 30 minutes. The interview was very easy, and the interviewer friendly. We sent a lot of evidence with the I-130, and were very well organized. The interviewer asked some general questions, such as where we worked, our address, how and when we met, and when we decided to get married. Very simple questions. My husband speaks Spanish and our interviewer conducted the interview in Spanish (I speak Spanish too). We were in and out in about 15 minutes. All that stress for nothing!

It was not what I expected. It was the easiest and most pleasant interview experience ever. Approved on the spot. Passport got stamped.
