Home visit
Hello everyone,
I would really appreciate your thoughts and experiences.
I filed my marriage-based adjustment of status case in April 2024. My interview was conducted in April 2025, and about nine months after the interview, USCIS officers conducted a home (site) visit yesterday.
During the visit, the officers were very professional and respectful. They looked around our home, reviewed our family pictures, took some photos, and checked our personal belongings such as clothing and household items. Everything went smoothly, and they seemed satisfied before leaving.
After the visit, they also called and verified information with our current landlord, and later contacted our previous landlord as well. All verifications were completed successfully.
My questions are:
1. Is this generally considered a positive sign?
2. Based on similar experiences, how long does it usually take to receive a decision after a home visit?
Thank you so much in advance for sharing your experiences and guidance. đ

@Ash Hussain Why do you think they made the home visit? Did you not submit enough evidence? A home visit means they have serious doubts about your marriage.
Rocco FortéDec 22, 2025
@Ash Hussain 99% is quite a high number and not realistic. Thereâs something they donât like about your case and I hope you overcome it. All the best
