k1 ; AOE I 485 approved 💫
2 days ago I had my IV for green card in Harlingen, Tx. The officer was very professional and kind, btw she did not check a single document, but my passport and my husband’s ID. Although we brought a full folder with files of documents, copies and originals including proofs and tax transcripts, receipts, bills, photos etc. She asked me when we met and how many years ago, and also she read the list of criminal questions, I gave her yes/no answers from the form. that’s all. She approved after few minutes. So happy that the whole process of AOS took 59 days!! Wish y’all luck #k1fianceevisa #aos #greencard #texas

After submitting all the forms they need to adjust my status (visitor to permanent resident) on Oct 2, 2020, I waited for 1 year and 12 days to finally get my green card. I had the green card interview on Oct 5, 2021. I got my combo (EAD+advance parole) about a couple of weeks before the interview. It’s pretty much useless when I got it cuz they didn’t send me the Social Security Card that I asked for when I filled out the form I-765. After going to the interview on Oct 5, my green card has arrived in the mailbox on Oct 12, 2021. Interview Questions She asked me why I changed my name? Also asked some of the questions from I-485 for eligibility. Asked for the originals of my name change dox. She asked my husband about himself of where he was born, his birthday, name etc. (You read it right, she asked my husband about himself, not me.) And ask to see if we have anymore proof of relationship. I got about 20 more pics since I submitted my case (mostly me, my husband and his family.) Rental agreement, tax return, plane tickets from the past. I had 2 big bags of cards we gave each other (she didn’t bother to read them. lol). Since my husband and I have been married for 4 years, (and we were abroad until Covid hit, that’s the reason I still can’t go home and had to adjust my status) I will automatically get a 10 year green card. The end. #caseapprove #greencard #EAD #workpermit #advanceparole #1year12days

6 weeks after Interview!! finally approved!! 😭😭
Indianapolis FO. No RFEs. Took 7 months to get Bio appt!! I made multiple inquires. when my I-131 became “out of normal processing time” I made a case inquiry and shortly after got scheduled for Bio. if you filed for combo and one of them is out of normal processing, make as many inquires as you can (I think Bio is faster now no?) I think A week after Bio, I was scheduled for interview. As soon as I got the notification, I chatted with an agent through Emma to know the interview date ( if you can’t tell, my patience was running thin lol). Interview day. Right before I sat down he gave me the white paper saying he will not make a decision today ( I was so bummed out especially seeing others get approved on the spot wit the same FO). my officer was so mean😭, he asked simple questions but each question was loaded with unnecessary minute details. At a point, he was almost yelling at me because I answered I don’t know to one of the questions he asked, he wouldn’t take I don’t know for an answer, (like I’m going to be honest and say I don’t know!) Never lie, better to say you don’t know than make up something on the spot. he kept pressuring me and trying to feed me answers . I think I spent almost an hour in there. with my partner it wasn’t that long. The waiting: this was the hardest part, everyday i vehicles Reddit and Facebook and saw people posting how they were approved on the spot by the same FO, or very shortly after interview. I started imagining the worst case scenario. eventually I decided to move on hoping they would get to me eventually ( it was hard but I had to , for my mental health). Then after over a month of silence , I decided to try making an inquiry, I wasn’t expecting this to work because they do have 120 days to make their decision. I did it anyways, I make a request to get a call from a Tier 2 officer. Officer called me after a while and I explained to her that I want to know the status of my application, I completed my interview, if they need anything just send me an rfe so I can move on with my life dammit! she was very nice and understanding and she forwarded my inquiry to the FO. I was expecting a generic answer but about a few days later, I suddenly got notification that nee card was being produced!! finally the wait is over. Hallelujah!! #i-485 #interview #approved #greencard
