JULY 2007 filers, post your timelines !

interview

hi every one
i had my interview on the 27th of November and was giving a REF to be submitted within 84 days from that date. this was how it went
The interview was for 10:30am and we got there at 9am, submitted our interview letter and was shown to the waiting room ( there were over 100 people there already), to wait until we hear our names been called. Our names were finally called at 12 :45pm and we went with the officer to her office.
She swore us in, told us not to look, touch or answer any question for each other during the interview, immediately i knew we had a tough one! She then asked to see my hubby's birth certificate, our DLs, my passport and birth certificate which we gave her then she asked me my mother -in-law's name. After that she starting asking my hubby about the stuffs we filled in the 1 130 and drew 2 lines at the back of the form and asked us both to sign and date it.
Then she asked me all the no questions and requested for more evidence to show bona fide marriage, we gave credit cards, insurances, gas, water and comed bills, bank statement, netflex acc, bookclub acc, old emails, past birthday cards, letters addressed to both of us still in the envelope and pictures. she took some of the pictures and asked me questions about who was who in them then she asked why everything was new so we told her i just got my SSN last month she then requested for more evidences and we said that was all we had.
She left the room for about 5 minutes, came back and said she wants more evidences and she want my school records from my country. I was surprised and confused as i have never heard of this type of request b/4 so i asked if she wanted records from my university or high school and she said she will write and i will know what she want and that was it. she walked us to the door and told us to have a nice day!
I got the REF yesterday and it is my high school records that is needed so i am trying to get that across to her asap, God help me as i left high school almost 20 years ago and don't have a clue where those records are right now, i will keep you all informed.
 
Wow... That was really weird... Any idea what high school records have to do with your immigration process?
Sorry to hear you've got the tough one... Hope it works out for you fine in the end... Good luck!!

Hello everyone
This is my first post and Im wondering why I didnt get anything yet, so hopefully someone might have some ideas.

july 28th 07 - filed i-485,i-765,i-130 and everthing else needed with them.
july 31st 07 - recieved.
sept 5th 07 - notice date
sept 26th 07 - finger prints done.
oct 19th 07 - request for evidence
oct 30th 07 - request for evidence recieved, application process resumed.

At the begining of november i signed up for online notification and saw that the case had resumed but on there they dont have everything. I appiled with myself and 3 children and the online case status only has i-485 for me and 2 of the children. there is nothing about my EAD. All of the application numbers start with MSC. are they slower? I have heard nothing else. my interview will be in detroit but not had any further letters since the request for evidence.
any advice or questions?

I would say that you have a very good chance of being approved as soon as you respond to the RFE. Depending on where your home country is, hopefully you would not have too much trouble getting your transcripts from your HS.

I think you will be ok in the end. Do you know if your namecheck cleared?

Don't worry too much. You are still within normal processing times considering the RFE.
