Praise God! I 485 approved!

1 John 5:14-15 New Living Translation (NLT)
14 And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. 15 And since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for.

Hello All,

I would like to first of all thank and Praise Jesus Christ for granting us our Green Card.
We have been waiting for 11 years and finally, God granted our request in His time. Praise God!

Our Field office was Hartford Field office.

I thought Hartford field office was a slow field office and was planning to move to another state where the timings are fast.
But God's plan was even better. He gave me interview in Hartford field office itself.

Interview Experience (Employment Based)
--------------------

Me, wife and son came to the office around 9:25 AM. 9:30 was the interview.
Very nervous. Went to the reception and gave the appointment letters. After some time, the receptionist called again for taking the photos.
He mispronounced my last name. Went there and gave the driving license and he took the photo. After that took my wife's photo.
Came back to the waiting area and sat.

Few minutes went by. Son wanted to play with our wedding rings. I took the rings from him and he started crying.
Lo and Behold! An officer is standing in front of us and he was looking playfully at my son.
I initially thought, the officer came there to scold me as my son was crying.

In fact, that was our IO!

He didn't call our names. He had our photographs and he came to find us in the waiting room..
He escorted us to his office.
We were still nervous.
The IO understood that and told that he know that we have a small child and he will try to make it short and sweet as possible.
IO also told that children under 14 are not required to attend the interview.
We wanted to point out some corrections. He noted them down.
He asked the basic questions in I 485 to both of us.
Then asked how long I have been working with the Company and my salary.
He then verified whether a visa number is available. He said it is available and told that he is approving the case right away!!!!
IO occasionally cracked some jokes to make us feel comfortable.
And praise God, we got the plastic cards in mail after about 5 days.

Only 1 minor problem happened:
The correction which we pointed out for my wife didnt actually get corrected in the Plastic Card. So, we have submitted an I 90 for replacing the card for my wife.

Other than that, everything went very smooth and God has granted us our prayer requests. Thank you Jesus!
I also want to thank this forum and its members for providing valuable information for the entire process.
