Yep, we're fresh baked meat. I really need some help and guidance, if this doesn't work out we can only blame ourselves.
So basically my wife and had our AOS interview on April 24th. After the interview, IO said she would send a request for additional documents in a few days. Now we know that she said that not to alarm us because she didn't believe in our marriage. We brought an approved I-130 from 2012 while I was in removal proceedings, few pics, leave and bills. No bank accounts or tax returns together.
Fast forward to July 13th when we received a second notice for interview for August 4th. THE DREADFUL STOKES INTERVIEW,which we passed in 2012. Whatever, no big deal. We prepared with our lawyer then went in. Here's where everything went south. We answered the majority of the question right, but here are the ones we got wrong.
When was the last time you went out: I said sometime last week, my wife said last month.
When did you move: I said Sunday and Monday, wife said Sunday.
What is your wife phone #: I didn't remember hers but she remembered mine
What's your wife's phone carrier: we both messed up on that one saying wrong carriers.
She asked why we don't have a joint bank: we truthfully said that we had an agreement to separate our finances for now until we get a house cause wifey is an overspender, which is true and we never had an argument about money in our marriage, IO laughed at that but I'm not sure if she thought that was funny or she was sarcastically laughing.
But everything else was right. At the end, she grabbed our album and asked me if she can take it all, I said yeah but then she opened it and grabbed probably about 11 or 12 pics and said she would send her decision in the mail.
But here's is the catch in all this, my wife's DL is on her mom's address but her ID is on ours. She told IO in our first interview that she didn't have a DL cause she was worried about the address discrepancy. She asked again on our second interview and my wife said the same thing, but I think she already had pulled her DL record and could see that she had a DL, so she caught the lie right there.
Now we know we did all this to ourselves and frankly, im expecting a notice of intent to revoke I-130 sooner or later in the mail. We are trying to gather more evidence and have changed her DL to our address.
Now, hopefully someone will give it to us straight as to what to expect. Our spirits are already down so no need to sugarcoat. Thanks for reading
