Review Topic: Adjustment of Status

Interview was at 7:45am (and I just realized that in the morning for some reason we thought it was at 7:30) at 26 Federal Plaza building. We live in Queens so I underestimated the commute a little but got there in time. Thankfully there was no line outside the building or in the security line. We rushed to the 8th floor and presented our appointment letter and was asked to wait. 7-10 minutes later my name was called. An African American IO received us and took us to the office. She made us take the Oath and we sat down. She asked for the IDs and Passports and then asked for the original Marriage Certificate so I confirmed that she meant the License.

She was friendly but to-the-point the whole time. She asked if we have any joint accounts/bank statements and we gave her the statements from AMEX, Checking Account, 2010 Tax Returns. She then asked if we rent or have our place, we told her that we rent and gave her the copy of the lease with Utilities bill and som... read complete review

Review Topic: Adjustment of Status

I hope some of you find this helpful:

My interview was scheduled at 9:45 today in New York City. I am married to a USC and was adjusting from a TN visa that had expired March 2009. I was very worried as I had crossed the border to Canada to get married and come back here again, without even thinking about the fact that my visa was invalid (sheer stupidity on my part...). I had also got engaged and then got a new TN-- which I was worried would look possibly like some kind of intent to immigrate on a non-immigrant visa. All in all many things I did could have been construed the wrong way, but the truth was, I was just really uninformed and had never intended to immigrate here, even after marriage (we got my husband's Canadian papers earlier this year, but he changed his mind on moving there so I went the AOS route a lot later than I should have). I was worried all my dates and work history, border crossings etc would be scrutinized but...

We got to 26 Federa... read complete review

Review Topic: Adjustment of Status

My interview was scheduled at 9:45 today. We got there at 9:15 but there was a line outside the building and it took until 9:40 to get in to the office, on the 8th floor. We went in, handed in our appointment notice and were told to wait-- and wait we did! The sign at the desk had said the normal wait time was two to three hours!! We waited until 11:20 to be called.

We were then greeted by an immigration officer and lead down a long corridor to her office. It was incredibly nerve wracking as it seemed she had some kind of mobility problem... nothing visible but she walked more slowly than I can even describe. Both my husband and I could hardly walk slow enough to keep behind her and the walk felt like it took forever. My nerves were at and all time high!

When we got to her office we were sworn in and then we sat down. She asked for our passports, but not our birth certificates. She explained that she would ask "the wife" questions and then "the husband," ... read complete review
