Any idea how long the process is taking at the Chicago office?

To make the story short, I have multiple entries and more than 100 days of illegal presence. I was afraid I would be in legal limbo. Fortunately, according to a lawyer who specializes in in admissibility cases, that's not the case.

I don't think my case is too common. I will keep you guys updated.

To even get the 3 year ban (if leaving USA), you would have to have 180 days of unlawful presence and you don't. Married USC? Used DACA AP? Married to a USC means any amount of unlawful presence is forgiven.

Sorry, correction. I was unlawfully here more than 1 year before leaving and coming back.

Idk why 100 days stuck in my head. Probably from wishful thinking.

Yes adjusting via USC spouse


The issue was leaving the country, not the unlawful presence. If I had been denied entry the secondtime I would be looking at a permanent ban.

No AP, never needed it. I was inspected on all my entries.

Hello. Those that already had their Green Card (I-485) interview in USA. What was your experience like at the interview?

What questions did the Immigration Officer ask?

What document(s), if any did they ask for at the interview? Did they ask for originals and/or copies? Did they make any photocopy of your documents?

Which I-485 YES/NO questions did they ask and which one(s) did you answer YES to and still got approved for Permanent Resident?

Were there any questions asked that were not on the I-485 form and/or did the Immigration Officer ask for further question(s) to why you answered YES/NO to a certain question of the form?

How long was your interview?

Did you bring your lawyer with you?

Did your lawyer speak at the interview?

Were you recommended for approval during your interview? If yes, when did your online status change?

Did you get a I-72 form? RFIE/RFE during your interview?

What/How did you dress for the interview?

Did you had DACA?

Was it 245i benefit?

Please tell us what you learned from your lawyer regarding preparation of your Green Card interview?
