Hi all,
I had my interview this morning in NYC and I know one other member has an interview tomorrow (albeit different location), so I wanted to give a quick update.
My interview was super smooth. My passport, 1NL, W2, degree and high school certificates and marriage certificate were requested, then I was walked through the yes/no questions. All done.
My husband was a little thrown on two things:
1. His degree certificates were requested. He did not have these as our interview was on short notice (his mom mailed them but we haven't got them yet), and we assumed that these were not required for him as my derivative. We did however have evidence of him being in skilled employment that requires training etc. etc (can't remember the exact clause) and his W2s, which should be sufficient regardless (?)
2. He got thrown on address- when questioned, he stated his last address outside of the USA as being a corporate apartment that he had lived in for two months prior to moving to the States, having forgotten that the i485 only wants the last address you have lived for over a year, thus he had entered his address prior to that on the form. He says this caused a little confusion with the case officer- he was only reminded of the 'longer than a year' when we got back home.
Other than that it sounds like his interview went smoothly- we were both interviewed separately and he was only asked how we met and my DOB.
I will of course be refreshing case status and keep y'all updated of how this goes.
