Hello everyone,

I just had the AOS interview today at the Seattle office and wanted to share the experience as a thank you note for all the helpful threads which helped me gathered all the necessary paperwork and got approved on spot at the interview.

Me and my USC husband had the appointment at 1:30pm. We arrived at 1pm and went through all the security check, front desk check, and got directed to the interview waiting area. We got called right after 5 minutes of waiting even though there were a full room. A female officer led us to her office. She asked if I had anything to add to what they already had on hand at the time. So I pulled out every single piece of evidence we had and submitted to her. She asked us to take an oath. We went over all questions in I-485, and I-130 which including verifying the information and Yes/No part.

I only remember some of the questions she asked about our relationship but basically we walked her through our timeline from the relationship, the proposal, the wedding, and the current life. Also, she asked what were our near and far future plans as well. So think ahead to answer this question guys.

At the end of the interview, she said our case is most likely to be approved but she still need to look over everything that we submitted to her today. If she did not need anything else from us, we can be expecting our Conditional Green Card to be arrived around 30-60days (we got married 1 year and 10 months already!) and she asked if we had any questions for her. I asked her whether I could have the I-551 temporary stamp within today because I have a job offer from a company and hoping me to start next week. She said she would hold my passport and verify the job offer and will let me know. She led us back to the waiting room. Our interview was about 35 minutes. We waited about 15 minutes more when I received a text message said Card is in Production!!! Hallelujah !!! The officer walked out with the stamp in it too!!! This moment, the moment we all have been waiting for, this is it! We thanked the officer and me and my husband hugged each other so tight and overwhelmed with joy!! I know the journey is long and exhausting. But as long as we can keep our faith and stay strong together. That day will come you guys! And thank you again for all the helpful threads helped us achieved our goal.
