AOS Interview Tracker: Discuss Individual Case

 
AOS Interview:  Pending  
User: aa76 Labor Filing Date: 30 Dec 2004
I-485 Received Date: 27 Jul 2007 Transferred to NBC: 18 Aug 2008
Interview Notice Issued: 07 Oct 2008 Interview Notice Received: 11 Oct 2008
Interview Date: 19 Nov 2008 Interview Location: Chicago, IL
Interview Status: pending Nationality: India
Interview Experience: pretty decent interview.

Had attorney representation.

Interview time at 10:00 am and called in around 10:20 am.

Officer asked us to accept the oath.

Verified my details on applications.

Verified details like the first time I came into the US, the last time I came into the US.

Verified all H-1B approval copies... Note they already had these with our application packet. Asked whether I had ever been out of status and I said No.

Asked me whether i still work with the employer that submitted the 485 application and I affirmed. Took latest Employment Verification letter. Took latest paystubs. Took 2007 Tax Return copy and W-2 copy.

For wife, officer initially asked for proof of status for entry into the US uptil point of H-4 petition submission for her. She came to US in July 2003 and her first H-4 petition was not submitted till December 2005 (those of you whose wife came through H-4 initially to US will understand why this is the case, this is not the case for people whose wife was already in US before marriage). Officer took copy of her 1st H-4 visa as proof of this. Verified that she had been in status.

My wife has birth certificate affidavit from parents. Her birth certificate is handwritten, looks like an affidavit itself :) and does not have her name in it (hence the affidavit was required). Officer was wondering why we don't have non-availability certfiicate from India and then realized that one of the items was the birth certificate. Whew!

Asked us if we had any kids. Took birth certificate copy for our son.

i think that was it.. officer gave a hint that everythign is ok and he was going to make a decision in the afternoon but then checked records and found that my prio date is not current. Said i will have to wait till date becomes current.

That's all folks.

Notes: soft LUD 11/20 1 day after interview. soft LUD 11/21

Did you get any LUDs recently because my case was transferred to NBC around your case transfer and I got 2 LUDs on 10/9 and 10/10 but have not received interview notice yet!!

I have no LUDs (hard/soft) since my case was transferred to NBC. After the transfer, this is the first time I have heard from them.
