It’s my turn! My case is Approved! 🙏🏻
Hi friends!
It’s my turn! After almost 5 years of sharing my journey and reading about others’ experiences, it’s finally my time to say: my case is approved!
Since I know these posts mean a lot to many of us, I didn’t want to skip sharing my story. I’ll try to keep it simple and cover the main points and common questions:
PD: 03/2021
Sponsor: Taco Bell – BDV
1st interview: 08/2022
Started working for sponsor: 12/2022
→ Worked for one full year after that I informed my sponsor I’d need to take a break for personal reasons.
05/2025: RFE for medical
06/2025: Case ready for 2nd interview
09/2025: Interview scheduled (yes, I waited 3 months to receive the date!)
10/2025: 2nd interview – Detroit Field Office
The interview was very quick—about 30–40 minutes. The officer was kind and mentioned she knew I had been waiting a long time but needed a second interview due to new policies. She said she just needed to review and update some information.
No questions about BDV, my sponsor, or anything like that ( all these questions was made on my first interview). She asked when I stopped working; I was honest and explained that the visa wasn’t available and that I had to move to another state for personal reasons, but that once approved, I intend to return to work. She asked if I worked somewhere else—I said yes, temporarily—and that was it.
My husband’s interview was separate, and he was with the officer for only about 15 minutes. Mostly form questions.
Dependents: Only my husband (we have 2 kids, both born here).
My biggest advice: Keep living your life and doing what makes you happy. Otherwise, time will pass, and you’ll feel stuck and frustrated. Your time will come! Wishing you all a future filled with purpose and happiness here! Thank you for all the support in this great community 💫

@GB B what did they ask to your husband? could you share please? what Kind of proof of relationship did you bring?
MZ AFeb 16, 2026
@GB B I have a quick question, you mentioned you moved to a different location after working 1 year with your sponsor. how did you find another sponsor on a different state? did you ask BDV?
