Interview Exp. @ Detroit
I had interview today, It was as expected..
My case was transfered 1st Week of DEC 04 (Only Attorney recieved the letter).
Interview letter recieved from Detroit INS 1st week Jan 05
Interview Scheduled 1st Week of Feb 05 (Today)
My case is very complicated one..lot of things working against me, here few to mention
1. Brush with law, was arrested last year ( misdemeanor domestic violence, 93 day and/ $500 fine)
2. I am still on informal probation with the same case
3. Salary issue, I was getting more than 10% less than what is specified LC ( I had to take pay cut due to the state of economy couple of years back)
I did lot study and consulted couple of attornies, before going to interview and offcourse I took one along, even though it cost some money. I came across this forum quite late..
Interview was very short 15-20 minutes (I was called about 20 min later than scheduled time)..most of the part is was usaul except for the above mentioned.
As expected officer did not decide the case for above mentioned issues, INS can not decide till I complete the probhation as I may violate the same.
Regarding the 3, officer asked why is salary difference and my attorney pointed out my empoloyer need not pay specified salary till I get I get a greencard but officer wanted see some proof to show that emp. will pay.
So officer mentioned that she will issue the RFE to produce the documents to address the issues 2,3. Eventhough officer did not decide the case, officer was very nice, did not grill me very much.
My attorney had already mentioned as what is going to happen, I was not surprised with INS actions.
I strongly suggest to take attorney for the interview, if the case is not strait forward and $$ is not the issue.
I know this post may raise lot of questions and critics. For all the critics, let me say in advance that it is very difficult to wlak in somebody else shoes.
