She asked many questions, one behind the other and fast.

awww!

The case went like this:

1-oath
2-passport and ID
3-Supporting documents, bank accounts, lease, bills,
4- Then she started to bombard us with so many questions I don't even know where to start.

She asked us, all the questions on form-485 twice each one, if our parents approved the marriage, who was in the marriage ceremony, when was my last entry to the united states, who is the landlord and name, where did we met, how, what classes did we took together, where did you go for the dates, then she started asking my wife a lot of questions about our joint sponsor. We had to look for another co-sponsor for the interview because the first one hasn't done his taxes yet. Then she was asking us about the old sponsor and we were answering about the new one, then she said that's not his name and we said he is not sponsoring us anymore we have another sponsor. But she didn’t ask us the information of the new sponsor. i didn't want to ask her about it because it could be taken as trying to convince her.

Then she asked us our phone numbers twice, our social security, then she asked all this questions again but faster. It was very hard to fallow her one question behind the other at the fast pace. But we answered everything, Except that my wife didn't know the previous sponsor information which she wanted to know.

We told her that It was a friend of us that is co-sponsoring me.


At the end she read me the form I485 again with the all the questions in the back that if I ever been arrested, and that if I accept polygamy etc.

Then She asked us for the photo album she saw the album with the courthouse ceremony and some others pictures. She asked us if we could give her two pictures of it.

I gave her two and then she said congratulations, I am going to mark in your passport that your case is pending for File Review, And she said that it is normal procedure it just that she need to review before we prepare a decision.

Then she left to make some copies about my I-20 and other documents of the school that I studied. When she came back she said do you have any more questions and Inquired her to explain me the notice she gave us, She said It is just that we are going to review your case and within 60 days we are going to send you a notice by mail to advise you whether you have been approved or denied.

Then we left and we said thanks you.
