This happened last February of 2006.
Had my Adjustment of Status interview yesterday at the USCIS office in 630 Sansome Street, San Francisco… came in at the office at 9:30 AM, got called after 5 minutes and was out of the USCIS office before 10 AM. fast huh ?
the interviewer was a Filipina ( sayang , I have been looking forward for a foreigner pa naman… ) but did not speak any Filipino so me and husband spoke in English too. Right away, she told me that she will not be able to approve it since they are still waiting for the security clearance that FBI is doing in my name. Well ,after the 9/11 they are exercising very strict guidelines with new immigrants , so that’s understandble I guess so I’m cool about it. I know that they will find nothing against me so I don’t have any worries at all.
Anyway, the interview was fast, did not have any problems at all. She just made us swear or take an oath that everything we say would be the whole truth and nothing but the truth …. the same oath I took when I had my embassy interview in the Philippines. She asked for my SS number, my passport, and she also crossed out my US visa thereby cancelling it. She also took my I-94 form , the form I filled up during my entry to the US. We had a little chitchat too about the baby’s facial rashes but after that it was all formal and she proceeded to ask if I have ever been to the US, if I have ever been convicted of any crime, or that If I plan to commit any felony, prostitution etc…(the last one made me think, duh?? I am such a good girl noh. hello ??!!! ) Baby is getting impatient so he kept on whining, I think the lady wanted to get rid of us fast so she just asked for any proof for our genuine marriage so we gave her a copy of our joint bank account, the medical and dental ID cards. we also showed copy of the check from IRS under our names since we filed jointly. after that she said I just had to wait for my greencard in the mail…
At last and finally, that was over… whew!!!
Update:
May 12, 2006, approved AOS , will receive the card in the following weeks..
May 23, 2006 , finally received my conditional, permanent resident card in the mail.
