Mike95 - Upcoming GC Interview
Hey guys, my GC interview is this friday. Annoyingly my interview letter went walkabouts but thankfully I know its 10 or 10.30 am this friday in Montgomery so I will make it. I am going off the list of stuff to bring above, is there anything else anyone can recommend and will I have a problem not having the letter? Thanks.
Edit: Currently assembled... New I-864 with only me and my wifes income on. (Her mum put her on her taxes this year which hasn't been filed yet to my knowledge so just listed 2017's tax number from the last I-864) Original Marriage Cert My Passport + receipt of wifes letter for sending off her Passport for updating. Original Birth Certs for both. Recent joint bank statement Joint health insurance + cards. EAD/AP Card Work ID Card Joint Cell Phone bill Water bill in my name. Printout of joint apartment lease info. 2x Payslips for me 3x Payslips from her Printout of flight info for vacation to home country next month. (Both listed as passengers) Lots of recent photos of us both. Print outs of all forms from my AOS Application incl 2017 tax info. |

Re: Mike95 - Upcoming GC Interview
I attended the AOS interview yesterday and it was much quicker than I thought! We went into a private room with the USCIS officer and he said he had already approved the case and he just went over the application fixing the minor errors. He then asked for anything I wanted to further submit such as recent bills, new 864. He didn’t need to see any photos. We then chatted for the majority of the time about the crazy people he’s had to deal with and those stories which was pretty funny. And that was it, took no more than 20 minutes and green card was approved and I got a notification it is being produced. I’m glad to be done with this for a long time! Thanks to everyone who helped me on the way! |

Re: Mike95 - Upcoming GC Interview
Congratulations on your success.
Are you a conditional permanent resident or a permanent resident? If conditional, you will be dealing with USCIS in two years, less 90 days, from the anniversary date on your green card. So continue to put aside evidence of the continuity of your marriage for the removal of conditions via form I-751. |
Re: Mike95 - Upcoming GC Interview
Thank you! Yea I’m conditional but I’m in the process to enlist in the army at the moment so should that all work out I will bypass that but if that falls through I will make sure I do that. |

That is consistent with almost every visa/gc interview I have ever heard of - specifically that the decision was taken before the interview started. That is very clearly true in almost all cases, though very rarely stated as clearly as in your interview. Congratulations! :thumbup:....

Re: Mike95 - Upcoming GC Interview
Been a while since I’ve been on this forum thought I’d put a little update. I enlisted in the military as planned in July, I submitted my N400 packet this December after arriving at my duty station. Just received my receipt notice and waiting to hear back on how long processing will take. |

Re: Mike95 - Upcoming GC Interview
I shouldn't do as my Green Card doesnt expire till early 2021 and I should have my N400 processed and become naturalized very soon. USCIS expedites military N400s already and I have an upcoming deployment so they will expedite the expedition of it which is pretty neat. I also heard of someone who joined the National Guard and got their citizenship before/during their Basic Training which I can't confirm.
All you have to do is a completed N-426 signed by a O-6+ and then send that with an N400 to the military receiving address and thats it. No other documents required. |

Accordingly, CPRs who are filing on the basis of such qualifying military service are not required to file a petition to remove conditions and may be naturalized without the removal of conditions from their permanent resident status. |

I don’t know what the current GI bill for college provides but if I was you I would take full advantage of what it offers. The GI bill was of great benefit to me and I used it to the max. |

Re: Mike95 - Upcoming GC Interview
Hey mike ! Congrats on your green card! Can you tell me more about your journey to join the military? I thought the current administration made it impossible to join with a conditional green card and gain citizenship? Thanks
