We went through security and then to the waiting room for USCIS. The receptionist looked at our appointment letter to check us in. We waited about 35 more minutes until the officer came out and called my husband. I freaked out because they separated us, which is not something I had heard about happening before in our office. The officer gave me a paper to fill out and took my husband for about 20 minutes alone. I wrote my name, date of birth, social security number, how I met my husband, when we got engaged, who was at our wedding, his siblings names, my parents’ names, my job, if we have kids, and I had any other marriages. They asked him the same questions and then compared the answers. The officer had me join them at the end. He asked me more questions, like some of the same ones from the paper, and also how many times I went to Brazil, how many times my husband visited the USA before moving here, where my husband was born, and where he used to live before moving here. As far as the documents collected: The officer took our joint tax return, any proof that we lived together (lease, photocopies of our photo IDs with the same address, bank statement). He DID NOT Take anything about our health insurance, our joint credit card, our joint cell phones, or anything related to our trips together since my husband arrived here. He DID also ask for photos. I had printed 14 photos and also offered to show him photo albums. He did not want to look at the photo albums or keep a copy of our holiday card, but he kept the photos I printed and asked my husband to say who the other people in the photos were. He asked about our gross household income to verify we met the requirements. He asked about my husband’s job, but did not take any documents about verifying either of our employment. The officer said he did not have our medical. My husband had done the medical in Brazil 3 months before we applied for his AOS, so I Knew his medical was still valid but the officer was confused. He made a copy of our original vaccine worksheet from Rio de Janeiro and said he would check with someone else about it. He said we were “approvable†and he just needed to finish the background check and confirm about the medical. I started off extremely nervous about being separated, but in the end I could see our officer was just very very thorough. Fortunately, on hour after we left, the case already changed to approved on the ap!!! I am so relieved and happy for my husband (and both of us!) | 2023-09-13 | ||||

The interview was held in Atlanta and our officer was very professional. He only asked us each a few questions, addressing us by name so that we do not answer together. The questions themselves were very basic. My husband was asked my home country, my date of birth and my parents' name. I, on the other hand was asked my current address and if I have lived there since I have come to the US. The only other questions asked were the standard security questions, all of which were answered with no. The interview lasted about 30 minutes, most of which was spent in silence. At the end of the interview, we were informed that he has approved us in the system ("proposed for approval") and that we should expect my green card to come within a week. | 2020-12-12 |
