Newark local office transfer: tracker

Hi, DOM2004,

As far as I know, usually once you got the 2nd FP notice from the local INS, the interview notice should come very soon after that.

So wait for another week, you will be there.

Good Luck

NJJ

DOM2004,

Yes, they did mention medicals in my interview notice but not ask me to redo it. Although people here said no need to redo it, I still did the medical again and get another sealed envelope by the doctor.

Also I think you need to bring the 140 approval notice with you. They may not ask for it, but it is better bring every related items. Just in case.

What is Audit Photos ??

Hi, vipul79,

The Audit (or Adit?, I am not sure) photos are the photos with some kind of style/requirements by BSCIS (you may find the correct format from BSCIS' website.

As to the interview officer, yes it is clearly stated on the interview notice that which officer will interview you. For my case, it is officer #2 and seems MM has the same officer.

NJJ
 
Hi Markmurali

my officer is the same #1 as yours. Pls share your expeience on the interview.

NJ_VIJ,

What were the questions asked and did any documents seen by the officer? I think you have the same officer

I have been asked only the letter I94,PP is it necessary to bring the current employment letter, I am working with the same company
 
I would recommend taking 2 pictures with you on the interview. There are several right around the BICS building. The officer who interviewed me was very kind enough to let me have the pictures after she stamped my passport. She just gave me a note that I can come back just for the pictures.

NJJ.............the best of luck to you, I know your interview is very soon. So next time we can talk about when the actual card will arrive.

Hi Guys,

Mine did not mention which officer will do the interview. It did say however that the interview will be videotaped
Is this unusual? Would appreciate any input on this. Thanks.
 
Mine didnt mention whicj officer too.
It said "team room such and such". At first I got scared thought a whole team was going to interview me :) .
anyways it turned out only one officer interviewed. so dont worry.
They didnt allot you a officer cus they wanna see what you look like . I am just kidding :)
 
Hi acc918,

Can you share what type of documents USCIS has asked in their Interview letter.

Thanks

Hi DOM2004,

Below are the questions officer asked me

Who is my employer ?
Where is the office located ?
Who are the clients ?
Does employer operate only in US or outside US?
Do U work at client's place everyday or visit your employer's office?
Later asked our personal questions . Like when and where we were married ? Do we have children ? Is it our first marriage ?
Where did I meet my wife first time ?
Do you have any connection with Terrorist organizations or Terrorists?

He repeated the same personal questions to my wife too ...

Below are the documents officer asked me

Passport
Asked my Employment letter (I was asked to bring in the interview letter)?
My Recent Pay stubs? Given entire 2004 pay sub
Note: If officer ask about any documents give him only copies, I made a mistake when he asked for pay stubs I asked him a question you want original or copy, he immediately asked me did you have original and he took and compared both then kept the copy.

Even if you are working for the same company, better take the current employment letter and all required documents, which support your petition.

Regards
NJ_VIJ
 
Hi acc918,

My Interview letter also stated that “ ***A VIDEO OR AUDIO RECORDING MAY BE MADE OF..” this is usual. I did not see any cameras over there, there might be hidden.

All the best for the interview.

Thanks

Hi GlenMd,

The interview letter indicated that we should bring I94, PP. But below the letter is a small paragraph that states that we should bring all the documents related to the application so I am going to bring everything I can think is related to the application.
Does anyone know if the officer will talk to the kids too? I am just curious. Anyway, I will be with my lawyer.

Thank you for your replies.

NJ_VIJ,

Thank you for you reply. I know what you are saying above and I have this below the interview letter. But mine stated in bold letters and capitalized in the letter itself that "THIS INTERVIEW WILL BE VIDEOTAPED".

I don't know why my letter says this.
 
NJ_VIJ,

Thanks for yr reply, you are right, I guess I will ask for the current employment letter, though nothing has been mentioned to bring it. Hope everything is ok.

My salary however is 35k more than the LC (sub) do anyone foresee a problem
