Another Boston AOS success story
Hey all. 
We had our AOS interview this morning in Boston, and thought I'd let you all know how it went. It has a happy ending obviously, given the thread title. 
Anyway, we were scheduled for 9:30 AM. We took the train into Boston, because frankly I couldn't bear the thought of driving into the city that early. As a result, we were tremendously early (we could have taken a later train, but it would have been a little too close for my comfort, in case there were any delays). We walked around for bit to waste some time, then ended up heading over to the JFK building around 9:00 anyway.
We made our way to room E-170 and it was pretty busy already. We checked in and had a seat. People were being called in pretty regularly, I have no idea how many people they have working there. At about 9:15, we were called (yes, 15 minutes EARLY!).
The interviewer was a young guy, very pleasant. He swore us in and we sat down in his cubicle. He asked for our IDs then started asking hubby the regular questions (when did you last enter the country, have you ever been deported, are you a terrorist, etc). He asked us how we met and we said on the internet.. then joked a bit about how I'm sure he hears that a lot.
He asked if we got married in a church and I said no, it was a private ceremony.. he asked if we had any pictures, and I said yes and gave them to him. He looked through them pretty quickly but didn't really comment on them. He took our joint bank account statements and my retirement statements that shows hubby as benficiary, our 2004 tax returns only and my employer letter. When I gave him my employer letter, I told him I had an I-864 as well and he didn't really seem interested in it, but he took it anyway because it was up to date. In fact, he pulled my original I-134 out of his file and gave it back to me "in trade" (which I thought was really strange).
Anyway, after looking through everything, he said he was going to approve our case and that hubby would get the card in the mail in a few weeks. He stamped his passport with a "CF1" stamp which he said is the designation for approval based on a fiance visa or something like that. We were out of the building and on our way at 9:30... which was what time our appointment was scheduled for originally!
I had brought with us every single piece of paper I had from the very beginning of I-129F process. Here is a summary of what he took and what he *didn't* take that I thought he would (based on the appointment letter):
He DID take:
- 2004 tax returns (but not 2002 and 2003)
- Copies of bank statements and retirement statements
- Our wedding photos (didn't "take" but looked at them)
- Hubby's EAD and Advance Parole documents
- The I-864 (though I don't think he would have asked for it if I hadn't said I had one)
- My employer letter
He DID NOT take:
- 2002-2003 tax returns
- The vaccination supplement, still in the sealed envelope! (I did not realize this until after we had gone, or else I would have offered it to him)
All in all, it was pretty painless, and quick too. I think I've covered everything, but I'll edit if I think of anything I left out. I hope everyone's Boston experience is as good as ours was!
Feel free to ask me if I left any important questions unanswered.

Re: Another Boston AOS success story
Firstly, congratulations on your success. It's encouraging to hear that
at least some of these civil servants are tolerant of their customers
and behave with some degree of civility.
I've just submitted a I-129F for my fianc'ee so I'm on a hell'ava
learning curve so forgive my ignorance.
I was wondering what the heck an AOS interview is? Is this the process
that one goes through that demonstrates that a marriage actually took
place (within the 90 day US entry date)?
Additionally, what/why a different Affidavit of support is required at
this interview? This is the first I've heard of I-864...
Thanks in advance....

Never mind on the questions. I found my answers after reading the
instructions to Form 1-485....It's scaring me. I'm actually becoming
conversant in the language of "INS-glish"...

Re: Another Boston AOS success story
Congratulations! And thanks for the detailed update.
This is wonderful news. All of the folks who interviewed in Boston thus far have had painless interviews and got their passports stamped, so I'm very optimistic about our interview coming up in 3 weeks.
Now you guys can sit back and relax until it is time to remove conditions!

Re: Another Boston AOS success story
Congratulations on your successful interview. Please post again when your
green card arrives. Seems like most people are getting their cards in a
week or two after the interview. But we've been waiting about 4 months now
after my wife's AOS approval in Boston and her green card hasn't arrived
yet. I'm wondering if it's something specific to Boston.
Thanks.

Eric, I'm hearing that everyone appears to be getting their cards pretty quickly... have you called anyone about why the card hasn't arrived yet?

Re: Another Boston AOS success story
That's great! I'm glad you got yours, and I have no idea why I have to make an Infopass appointment to get a stamp for my passport and give passport photos, fingerprints, and signature. I ALREADY have my stamp. Argh!!! More USCIS fun!!

Way to go !!!!
Congratulations on the successful interview and the quick turn around on the green card. Remember to start saving evidence for your removal of conditions in one year and 9 months.

Lucy - how strange that you have to go back for all that stuff! It looks like your filing date was very close to ours, so I can't imagine it has anything to do with the age of anything... weird.
Rete - I didn't know we needed "evidence" for the removal of conditions, I thought we were only going to have to fill out another form? What sort of evidence are they going to want? Just more "proof of a valid marriage" type stuff? Because I don't think that will be a problem, since I save everything anyway.
(And here I thought I'd done all my homework!

I know - it is strange. I'm hoping to receive my greencard anyway, but I'm planning to go in no matter what. O well, at least it was an out-and-out approval notice as opposed to something else! And I do have the stamp, so I should be set.
The only difference between our cases is that I should be getting a 10-year greencard. Oh well....
