Any Sep 2019 Interview Experience at Newark NJ ?

[fooBaar]

Hi there,

Appeared this morning for AOS spouse based interview at Newark office, Interview time 10:15 am, IO called us ta 12:45 pm.
Started with my wife (US Citizen) with questions about when we met, nervous wife mixed up all the dates which made the officer more suspicious and resulted in in-depth grilling.

However topic moved on from there interview lasted around 40 mins, at the end office (mid-aged African descendant) said that she'll review the details and we shall hear back with 120 days, insisting the fact that it's official 120 but we'll hear way before that.

We left with a very sad mood and much stress.

Is it normal for a Visa officer to not tell the conclusion at the same time? Anyone else here also had to wait before hearing the final answer.

Ah this all is very stressing at this point.

Good Luck everyone.

Even some people with all correct answers report having to wait. Good luck and I hope you get the GC soon.

I had my interview 08/21 at Newark, NJ FO too. The interview lasted 15-20 minutes. I’m adjusting my legal status through a family based petition (my wife petitioning for me) and still waiting a final decision on my case. The case tracker says “Interview completed and case must be reviewed”......

Hi JC777 ,

Thanks for responding, looks like we both are in the same boat, May I ask you after how long from interview your status changed to "Interview completed and case must be reviewed” ?
Good Luck to you, Hope you hear back a positive response soon.

M.Alvarez did you get approved as of yet?

[M.Alvarez]

M.Alvarez did you get approved as of yet?

Not yet :/ the status online says "my interview was completed and must be reviewed". The IO says to wait around 7 days to get the letter. He did not say that it was approved., but he said like 2 or 3 times that everything looks good and that he doesn't need any more information. So I hope that means good news.
Did your status change to approved? or not yet?

We both on the same spot!
My case status stills remain as yours as of today.
The IO said I’ll be getting his final decision on my case in the mail and also said everything looks good.
Still waiting though.....
