Re: USCIS Security Checks
Just out of Interest, has anyone ever sussed them doing Physical Checks? I reckon I did twice. Once in the UK after my wife applied for the K1 and then over here 2 weeks before my AOS interview. Probably Paranoia, but it stood out.

I imagine they consult with Interpol, British Police, and other organisations to determine whether a particular person has been the subject of any investigations, arrests, or whatever.
