Approved!!!DO: Chicago

Hello Everyone,

I got approved last week. I should have shared with you earlier but my connection was down for days. Here is what I have for you.

I am the beneficiary and my USC hubby is a full time student.
I got there 15 mins to 11am. Interview was called at 11.10am. A friendly lady in mid-30s called and sworn us in. She went through all the paperworks, verified the information, asked for my passport, my I-94 and EAD. She took away my I-94 and EAD. She asked us where we met the first time, my current job with proof of my employment. She asked about our co-sponsor. I showed her the latest pay-stub. She enjoyed talking with my hubby about his education. She asked whether we brought any proof of joint bills. We nodded but she did not see any of them. She stamped my paper and said I will be receiving my condtional green card next 2 weeks and reminded us that we should file for removal 90days prior the expiration of the card. She did not mention about my namecheck. She just said that we were approved. She did not stamp my passport either.

I was happy and speechless. The interview was about 10 mins only. The IO was in hurry indeed. Be frank, I had over-prepared my stuff. I brought a bookbag of documents to show we are real. In fact, I realised that the IOs know every body languages display within couples. We should prove to the IOs that we are loving couples and we deserve the rights to be together.

Foremost, thanks for everyone here. The experiences and questions/answers posted in this forum are helpful. I suggest new signers should spend quality time reading through every relevent thread posted in here.

Now, I am waiting for my welcome notice. I noticed that some people received their notice couple days later after the interview. As of today
( day 8), I have not received my welcome notice. I am planning to schedule for infopass. I have my new job beginning next week and I do not have any document including my EAD to prove my employment. Also, there weren't any changes yet to I-475 and I-130 in the website. It said " pending for decision making". Any idea out there to resolve my issue? Please advise.

Thanks in advance.

I wish everyone here good luck and best in success.
