He couldn't approve the 485 because of the missing gonorrhea results on the 693. He said that another officer was going to review our case once we responded to the rfe.

Thank you. what field office did you go to ? if you are comfortable sharing.

I received an email yesterday notifying my EAD is in production. The total turnaround time from walk-in biometrics to the notification was 11 days, including Labor Day.

What did you guys put for Part 8 Question 16: Have You Ever Worked in the United States Without Authorization?

Helping out a friend but I don't think I had that question when I did it last year.

My friend has been working since 99...doing taxes etc...

The application was updated after you were approved. I would be truthful but I would like to hear what others think.

Not at all. EWI cleared with AP. Sent in application last Dec for AOS through marriage to USC. I remember we discussed about front loading packet with evidence vs just sending marriage certificate. Lawyer only sent marriage certificate and we brought evidence to interview.

As far as the interview, we were called in. Sworn to tell the truth. Then he began with my wife. Asking her questions about her bio info, address, my bday, our wedding date. Officer then proceeded to ask me the same questions and then all the yes/no questions on the i485. The atmosphere was pretty serious all through this. It didn't start to lighten up until the officer began to look through our evidence. That's when he began to ask about our relationship. How we met, how long we dated before we married, etc. He started joking with us and it definitely helped ease the rest of the tension my wife and I had.

He looked through our wedding pics and complimented some of them. Told us how we looked drastically different than 4 years ago (when we began dating). It ended with an awkward silence as he typed on his computer. But then he broke it by telling us that our case was fine and we were approved. Then it was all smiles from there.

He even suggested a restaurant to eat at bc we mentioned that's what we were going to do afterwards since our interview was at 8am.
That was my post interview post.
