hello goodbye
3h
interview today
I had my I-485 (EB-2) adjustment of status interview today at 9:15 AM, and I wanted to share my experience to help others who may be in a similar situation.
I arrived early and was called in without issues. The interview lasted approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes to 2 hours.
The first part of the interview consisted mostly of yes/no questions directly from the I-485 application (standard admissibility and background questions). After that, the officer asked case-specific questions, mainly related to my immigration history and employment-based petition. Nothing unusual or unexpected came up.
The officer was professional and thorough. There were no accusations, no trick questions, and no requests for additional documents during the interview.
At the end of the interview, the officer informed me that they would need to conduct an immigration review and discuss the case with a supervisor before adjudicating. No decision was given on the spot, and I was told to wait for the official update.
Overall, the interview felt procedural and straightforward, even though it was long. I left feeling that the officer wanted to make sure everything was properly reviewed before making a final decision.
I’ll update once there is movement on the case.
Hope this helps others going through the process.
