Hello everyone,
Today I completed my interview in Newark NJ.....it was scheduled for 2pm but we didn’t get called in until hour and a half later. Our officer seemed a little strict in the beginning but then was cracking jokes later. We had a few laughs and he made us feel at ease. He said he can tell that our marriage is legit and would approve me on a spot but has to get it approved first. He told me we should have an answer within a week. So now I’ll just hope for the best because It seems to be the norm that people are told this same information and then wait weeks if not months after the interview. Really hope that is not the case but I am definitely happy to have the interview behind us!Last edited by Ires; 10-15-2020, 10:51 PM.Field office: Newark, NJ
