GC in Hand!! 🎉
Hello Lovelies! I just received my 10 year GC in the mail! My (almost) 30 year (overstay) Journey has come to an end! Finally I am legal and free! No more looking over my shoulder or hiding in the shadows. My ancestors and the Universe blessed me with so much! My heart is happy, my mind is calm and for the first time since coming to the US in 1993, I can truly exhale. Grateful is an understatement.
While my GC Journey is over, I plan on staying in this app while I work towards my Citizenship . This app has helped keep me sane since filing last year. The support and knowledge is truly amazing.
Stay strong! And remember…miracles do happen and dreams do come true ✨🥰🙏🥰✨

Interview Done!
Hi everyone!
I just got back from my marriage based interview in Washington DC. Wanted to share my experience!
We went in and had to wait for about an hour but it was fine since it gave us to prepare our minds. When we went in, the officer was very nice and she welcomed us to take a seat.
She asked us for our marriage license, passport, birth certificates, and drivers licenses. Then she asked for some joint documents that can support our marriage. We took 6 months of joint utility bills, joint bank account statement (2 months), a check that was issued under a different bank account with both of our names and address, tax returns 2022, lease agreement, car insurance.
Then she asked us about the general questions such as identifying our names and birthdays and address. After that, she asked my husband how did you guys meet, do you still work and that was it! The question for me was are you working, when was the last time you came to the US (I came here as an F1) and the "have you ever" questions that were initially on my submitted documents. It was surprising to see that she didn't ask to see any of our photos but I told her I brought a whole photo album and she took 3 photos (friends and families) At the end she told us that she has enough evidence to support our marriage and I just had to sign a paper and so did the officer.
She told us she would review the documents and make up a decision in2-3 weeks and the greencard will arrive in 2 weeks or so. She didn't really give a direct "approval" but she sounded like so. (Want to hear your thoughts on this)
An hour or so after, the i-130 is changed again to actively review. Does anyone know if this is normal?
I can take any questions! I am more than happy to!
Chat with agent
Hi! I’ve just tried chatting with agent and I gave my spouse’s I765 case number.. they asked for info like name, date of birth etc and I gave mine.. the response was that it doesn’t match the record.. I answered that I am a US citizen and checking for my husband’s case, but he said that only he can do that… I thought that a citizen can check for their spouse.. what’s your experience??
N-400/ i-751
my Online status for N-400 is “oath ceremony will b scheduled” and they put my case in line for Oath ceremony from almost 1 month . But for my I-751 case status is still “fingerprints has been taken “ from last 6 months. i am worried whats going on. are both case approved and i will have to wait for Oath ceremony schedule or is there somthing wrong with i-751 ?
even i called USCIS nomber and talked with live representative , he said You r in Oath line.
i am so worried why i-751 status is still same from last 6 months. is there any way how can i check when is my Oath ceremony going to b scheduled ??
