Basis for approval…
… This program allows parolees to live and work legally in the USA for 2 yrs. I can’t understand when I see people arriving in wheelchairs that are senior citizens approved. It’s obvious they’re not going to work so why are they being approved first and taking away the opportunity for others that want to work and provide for their families in Venezuela w/out depending on help from US social service programs. If it helps someone I did speak to an agent at USICS and they said the delay is because they’ve added more countries to the humanitarian parole program. But after 307 days the case is confirmed travel is approved!Lawfully was worth every cent because it provided information on how the cases were moving in real time!! Thank you #Lawfully 🙏🏼🇺🇸🇻🇪🙏🏼

Had my green card marriage interview (Brooklyn FO) yesterday. Held for review.
Any similar experiences?
The interview was pretty smooth. The officer was nice, and didn’t ask any complex questions. He asked for all the additional evidence we wanted to add, and we gave him literally everything we had. He asked to see pictures with family, and we provided many. Also the pictures of trips we’ve made together (we travel a lot) and he seemed happy with all.
The questions were basic:
To petitioner USC:
- whats your full name
- whats your DOB
- full address
- how long you’ve been living this address
- what was your address before
- how did you meet your spouse
- how long did you date before getting married
- what does she do for work
To beneficiary (F1):
- whats your full name
- whats your DOB
- whats your full address
- you came as a student, what did you study and where? Did you graduate?
- what does your spouse do for work?
- since when does he work there?
Nothing crazy, when we were giving the documents and photos he was talking to both of us, like normal conversation. At the end he said he was about to wrap up the interview, and asked if we had any questions for him. We basically said no, but wanted to know what are the next steps.
He said: the reason you had to come for the interview its because you didn’t provide sufficient evidence with your application (which is true, we didn’t have much joint stuff when I sent the application, but now we do) today you gave me more things, so I need to review your documents and you should hear back from us. We asked when should we expect an update and he said we typically say 120 days but it should not be long. And handled the paper saying that our case is being held for review.
He was very nice, didn’t seem suspicious or worried about us. As he escorted us out, I asked if I could give a call if I didn’t hear back within 120 days, and he even joked: “absolutely, you can call and asked what the heck is happening to my case that is taking so long” we all laughed and left.
Anyone had a similar experience? How long it takes to get an update?
Thank you!

I had to try, LOL
If someone is thinking about reaching the Office…,
I did the last week and this one too, just pretending I have no idea about my case to see if they give me a heads up…
But the answer was (what I already knew), to wait until the end of this year basically to reach them! LOL
But I had to try, :D
