need help for stokes interview

Oh my God I dont know what to tell you. Firstly you not living together and you dont have pics, bills. Look at this from the interviewers point of view, they are so many sham marriages out there and your job was to prove to them that your marriage was entered in good faith and not to obtain a gc. Your situ is kind of tricky but you might just find a nice interviewer.an immigration judge will have the final say and if they are not convinced you might be deported. My advice is to get an immigration attorney to advise you on this im at loss of words. But i'll keep you in my prayers. goodluck.
 
Better still why did you go to immigration when you were not ready to start the process for a greencard. You should have waited till you collected enough evidence. You have caused Unnecessary attention on yourself.
 
Not to sound curt, but I totally agree with the adjudicator seeing all the facts stated below.

I would suggest you both move in together immediately and start living like a married couple that has proof of conjugal cohabiatation. Best of luck!!!

We met each other in Aug. 2008 and started to date in April, 2009. We got married in Sept. 2009 and filed the application.
we don't live together (because of family issues, my parents don't like him and don't know that I got married, so I stayed at my place

And my husband doesn't have a contract nor any utility bill on his current address cause it's like a private oral agreement

Also, during the interview we told the interviewer that I have other accounts other than the only joint account, which is my husband's only account, and we said that I didn't put my money inside that joint account.
(We just simply thought that we need to have "a joint account", didn't know that I have to put money inside>"< that's not a problem for me at all...)

Young lady,

I think USCIS is right on point on your case, it smells like a cheap coffee!!! You married someone whom your parents don't approve of, opt to stay in your place, but time and again, you visit each other to fulfil the "bang city" of newly married couple but living separate lives? Am I am missing something here? In reading your post, I think you might have armed USCIS with dynamites carrying uncureable boils, the chances of you and your husband surviving stoke interview are the same as finding snow in hell...lol!!! You are going to be toast, unless you prepare yourself and prove that this sham marriage is a real marriage. Why did you marry each other if you aren't prepare to let your parents know who is the boss?

Thanks for being straight to the point.
You guys love each other - that is great. But the sole reason to get married at this moment against all the adverse situations is a green card - that is the motivation here.

You see, USCIS doesn't conduct interviews/investigation to find out if there is love between a married couple - they are interested to find out if the marriage was entered with the purpose of obtaining immigration benefit. Two people can be in love but their marriage can be motivated by immigration benefit - which is exactly what your case looks like. I mean come on, your parents don't even know you got married.

Anyway, you need to start living like other married couples. If you were the adjudicator, would you believe yourself about your marriage being real?

I am glad that you love each other so muchthat your parents don't even know that you are married. You are going to stay here alright, once the stoke interview is over, ICE will be waiting with a bag of ice to take you home. You are taking this issue less serious than it deserve, once again, you have armed USCIS and prepare for a battle of your young love. Lastly, loving each other should have nothing to do with a greencard, but in this case, the GC is the motivation. If I were you, would quiver in my boots, you are clear unprepared and have no clue on what is going as far as immigration process is concerned. USCIS thrives on feeding on people like you, and you are going to have a fire experience at the stoke interview. Read and prepare for a stokey interview, to show he loves you...

So if you move in with your husband, or he moves in with you, you would still be dependent on your parents?

You said you are going to school ... do you have a valid student visa? Or one that was valid when you applied for the green card?
Another reason is that my lease won't end until July,2010, and it's convenient for me to stay at the same place as I still go to school (the place is just right next to school).

It's time to stop thinking about what's convenient, and think about what you need to do to prevent deportation so you can stay with your husband.

Here's the problem, my husband can't move in with me cause this is a studio only for one person and the leasing office won't allow us to do that.

Check with them to ask about moving your husband in. They may have a policy against two single people sharing it, but it might be illegal for them to block a married couple from living in it, if it is off-campus housing.
And if I suddenly move out, my family will feel strange and now they already ask me to do the webcam video stuff to talk to me everynight to check that I no longer keep in touch with my husband and stay at my place.

So you'd rather get deported than let your family know about being married to him?

That's the problem, my family would rather me being deported than married to my husband. :( They already wanted me to go back to my home country just to stay away from my husband (don't care about my study). They don't even want me to get a job in the same "state" as him.

You are above 18 right? I am all for taking families approval for marriage and all that, but you should draw a line where they can not ruin your life just because they want this or that for you.

And lastly, all this discussion about trying to justify your situation doesnt fly in the face of law or judgement of an IO.

You allready messed up your situation by screwing up the first interview. Now you have to do what you have to do. No excuses. You need to get your affairs in order as soon as you can, or simply give up and save your time and every one else's involved.

Al, what is wrong with you man? Would you please calm it down and stop writing fiction? Every post in every thread that you have are geared towards fear-mongering and offers no help. Please write professionally.
 
Your parents are being unfair to you what is it you did to them that they dont mind seeing you deported? By the end of the day the ball is in your hands its your parents or your stay in usa. If I were you id seriously not care about the lease and get your act together. Subscribe for magazines/letters to come in both your name and also uscis does ask how both parents feel about the marriage. Like someone mentioned that you dont seem to understand the depth of the problem you in. You just cant go there and tell them you are in love and thats it otherwise if that was the case every single person in the usa would have a gc. Show them evidence of a bonafide marriage. Anyway its your call. How old are you?
