My Story
In brief: came to US in 1994 at 19; went to college; met my wife there; married in 1999 while on H1B; filed for AOS in Jan 2003.
Interview on thursday but more likely to be rejected than accepted (Yaaay! Won't be in your collective hair for long). Yeah, the marriage is bona fide - we've been together for 5 yrs.

Re: My Story
Did you write this correctly? In general somebody who's been married for
five years and adjusting status from H-1B should be an easy approval.

Does rejected mean deported?

? While it might well infer with a smooth naturalization processing, why are you under the assumption it would interfer with adjustment of status? Did your traffic violations include killing and/or maiming someone and as a result you spent time in prison.

Re: My Story
It would just have to be DUI/DWI, driving on suspended, or a accident
involving harm or death in order for it to affect and AOS. A speeding
ticket or a parking ticket might make things take longer or be bumper both
they're not automatic denials like a criminal auto incident would.

Re: My Story
Denial/Rejection doesn't automatically mean deportation unless they issue a
removal order. You can appeal the decision or if there is no order of
removal issued you can refile our case and have another go at it...though
the resaon for denial from the previous case will count into the decision on
the new case. All in all you can go before a immigration judge and he'll
have the final "yes" or "no" on the whole deal. Interviewer don't have the
last say on a denial, they just make the process to stay state side a shit
load harder if they do.
