Hi Everyone,
I had my Marriage-Based interview yesterday at the Tampa so I am sharing the experience with everybody.
The interview was scheduled for 1:30pm and we where there about 30 min early. The security officer asked for my Interview Letter and told us where to be seated until my name was called. At 1:40am a lady officer came out and called my name. My wife and I stood up and then she suddenly said that I must stay here she was going to speak to my wife first and then will call for me. It was a weird feeling staying there in the waiting room when you read that most people go together and then for the second interview will be question apart. But that didn’t intimidate me that much because my wife and I knew each other for 10 years and are married for almost 2. There is nothing that we don’t know about each other. The only thing that had me worried was that I field all the proof that we had like joint bank accounts ….. But she likely figured out how I filed everything.
I waited about 8min in the waiting room and then the lady called my name again. When we got to the interview room she swore me in and said that all our things look in order and she was going to ask me some questions. It was all the questions from the I-485. That was it. She asked for my DL, passport, EAD card and my 1-94. After giving these documents a look she said that I was approved and she stamped my passport there and then and said that I will receive the conditional green card because we are not married for 2 years and explained how we must remove the condition after two years.
In all it was a pain free experience and it went really well. So I wish everyone else the best with their upcoming interviews!!! Don’t be intimidated if called apart.
