Comments : Dear All,
My wife had interview for AoS today in Newark, NJ at 10am and guess what WE DID IT :thumbs: . I was not as organized as I was when submitting docs for i-130, i129f and visa interview. Although I was a bit nervous but I had pretty much all if not extra documentation ready.

I live about 25 mins drive away from Newark. Since it was about 3am at night before I slept cuz I was making sure that we've got everything required, I put several alarms to wake up around 7-7:30 but I woke up at 9am :blink: . We got in minutes and jumped into my car and thanks God we reached there at 9:50am. :P

Security wasn't bad as we had left coins and phones in the car so no time wasted there however the security officers in front of the interview room who check interview letter and photo IDs before letting in the room, were very unfriendly.

The room was full of people it took about 1 hour before our name was called. The lady who interviewed us was very professional. I was a bit nervous but after talking to her, I felt relief. She asked to show passports, EAD card and anything that we have... She asked us few simple questions and after reviewing the papers already on file.

After checking all the papers, she stamped my wife's passport and said my wife will get her Green Card in mail in 2 weeks and that would be a conditional card cuz we are not married for more than 2 years yet. She took EAD card and told us that the stamp would serve as temp GC. :dance:

I'm very thankful to all VJers for sharing their experiences on this site which helped me a LOT.

1- Who is sponsering you?
2- Asked name of Husband?

4- Where does he work?
5- VO asked to show pictures of wedding if you have and pix were seen.

After getting all ansers the VO congratulated my wife and said you are all set! and asked the nearest city where she can pick up visa. He said we will call you on your cell phone that we have right here pointing a form which she acknowledged. He said you will get a call bet 7-10 days to pick up your visa.
Rating : Very Poor


POE Review: JFK
Event Description
Entry Date : 2008-03-06
Embassy Review : I traveled with my wife on Saudi Arabian airline. I was little scared about the POE and what I had heard from others about the time it takes and the questions and pain they had to go through at the time of POE but I couldn't belived how fast it was. Plan landed at 8:00AM and at 8:20 we were out of the terminal along with luggage. Yep that fast
We were the first ones to get out of the plan and hence didn't have to wait in big line. When we went to the officer, I gave both mine and my wifes passport mine being US passport. He asked me she's your wife ofcourse the reply was 'yes' then he took her picture and stamped passport and i-94 and THAT'S IT.
Harassment Level : Low

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.

** Not all cases are transfered
