Good morning!
My husband & i had our appointment yesterday with a IO in MT Laurel, NJ. Our officer seemed really nice when she came out to the waiting room & called my name. She took us to the room, told us to keep standing so we could swear we were telling the truth.
She then proceeded to ask for ID’s & then asked us each others birthdays. Of course me being so nervous, messed up my husbands birthday & ended up saying mine. I said sorry & corrected myself with his birthday. She then asked us how we met, asked our 2 sons names & our current address. Asked me what my husband does for a living. She did ask our previous addresses & I couldn’t remember (I do terrible under pressure). She asked to see marriage & birth certificates from our boys. Skipped through my file, looked through the pictures that were attached, & began to ask me the yes/no questions. After she was done, she told us “okay, you’re application is going to be submitted for review. You should get a notice in the mail within 30-180 business days”
She didn’t ask for further information, pictures or anything that I had brought with me for the interview. Has anyone been in a similar situation?
My husband & I have been together since 2014, married for 3 years & have 2 kids together. I really thought my passport would be stamped on the spot. I’m beyond nervous with how this interview went. I keep having anxiety about having to wait to see if we were approved. Also I’d like to mention i never got my work permit or ssn prior to interview. Our lawyer said our case moved fairly quickly after being filed & didn’t give time to receive them in the mail.
