Interview at Newark: Please help

Hi,

Finally they sent my wife's interview letter at Newark. They want only her I-94 and passport. Her I-94 expired in 1999 and when we filed her 485 in 2002 she was out of status and we filed her case under 245(i). Will there be a problem?
What else should we take with us? Why are they asking for her expired I-94?
Do you think we should take the attorney with us? He is charging exhorbitant rates?

Please provide your inputs and help.

Thanks,
ataknev

GC approved - Passport Stamped after Interview at Newark

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi,

I wanted to share the happiness, my wife's green card was approved today after an interview at Newark her passport was stamped.
The interview was scheduled at 11AM and we were there with our attorney by 10:40 and gave our appointment letter at the window. After one and half hour of traumatic waiting we were called in, and the interview lasted 15-20 minutes. The officer did not ask much, except that he was interested in knowing whether I working for the same company and what my salary is. He asked maiden name of my wife and she fumbled because she was too nervous. He asked about EADs, AP and other stuff of my wife. He asked when my case was approved.
He asked for medicals for my wife. It was good that I was carrying them with me. I carried every possible document with me. Finally I saw the orange stamp APPROVED stamped on my wife's application and heard the attorney say 'you are all set'. The officer took the passport and stamped on it the I-551.

Finally the journey is over. Now I have to wait for the cards in the mail.

I thank everyone on this forum, Mr. Khanna for this wonderful forum, and particulary savichin who gave me lot of courage. He said it would be simple, and it was, but until that moment came it was indeed traumatic.
