What should I expect after my i485 interview? Please guide me with yor experience
hello everyone. I file marriage base change of status in Sep2017, EAD combo received in Dec17. now yesterday Oct 23 was our interview day. My wife is US born citizen and a school teacher. The interviewer was so serious and flat face person. We were hoping to have a pleasant smiley person but our bad luck. We stepped in, he took our id and then my finger prints and picture afterward oath. He asked my name, residential address, my step children names and their dates of birth, my parents in law's names, he asked about entry stamp on my passport when I landed in USA. He asked when my wife's previous marriage got dissolved he completely forgot in and I replied I cant remember at the moment but it was 2012 or 2013 (actually it was 2014). He asked my wife my name and spelling of my name, then he asked her about my previous marriage that when I got married and got divorced? she answered by remembering with few mistakes which she realized at same moment and corrected herself. The IO asked me where's my divorce court decree? I told him about my country which is religious state where husband has right to divorce without intervention of any court. People only goes to court if a woman needs divorce or her husband is missing or left her more than 4 years, she can seek divorce from court but husband can divorce verbally or in written. So I handed him the copy of written divorce paper with English translation which I gave to my ex wife. He said as different countries has different laws so he needs to look into it. 2ndly he talked about my medical which got expired and he needed to confirm from department whether a new medical is required or not? He printed a statement from his computer and got my initials in the end of every line and full sign at the end. The question with answers were; my name, how many times I got married, have I ever got US visa refused, my ex wife's name and anything else if I want to say in my statement.
We asked him if he needs any documents but he said unless if you want to submit. He said keep all originals and detailed documents because you (my and my wife) going to need them for form (I forgot the form name). We asked about photos as we had 150+ photos of different occasions but he said just pick 5 or 6. When we handed him photos he asked me about one picture that where this picture was captured? (it was me my wife and both step kids of mine in photo) Me and my wife start telling him about that visit. At this point the interview ended and he gave no kind of paper to us. He asked nothing about our marriage that where, when, how, why we got married etc. Since the interview ended my heart is pounding and still even after 36 hours I'm so nervous, scared, stressed... I don't know what they gonna do know... Do any of you have clue? please give me a sigh of relief
