Hi,

I was finally called for the interview on April 9th after 8 years of waiting for my I-485 asylee based application. The interview will be held at the local office. My invitation doesn't have any indication on what documents I should bring with me. Therefore I have few questions:
1. What documents IO (Immigration Officer) is generally looking for?
2. What questions should I expect from a IO?
3. How long on average interview like that lasts?
4. How soon should I expect the decision?

Thank you for your help,

asylee since 1998.
 
I was asked standard questions, like have I done anything illigal and things of that nature. I was also asked for copies of my IRS incomce filings (I had them printed for the past three years). I was also asked for 2 Passport photos, since my application dates back to 1999 when so called "3/4 quarter immigration photos" were accepted (and submitted by me with the original application) and now Immigration Services switched to the new Passport like photos. The whole process lasted about 15 minutes in addition due to the fact that immigration officer had to fill up I-94 form, attach my photo and stamp it with the stamp which states that I can use that form as my temporary "green card" with 1 year exparation date.
