I had my interview back in November, at the Buffalo (NY) DO. It was so quick we were in and out of the office within 10- 15 mins. We had a very nice woman officer.

She asked us to swear the oath, she asked us 3 questions and wanted to see our utility bills.

Once she had photocopied them, she came back in the room and said my GC had been approved. She said i should recieve it within 2 weeks, which i did.

Hope everyone's GC interview could be so quick and easy.

On the date of my first interview in the city of Hartford, I felt i got my feet back on the ground since i been waiting for so long for the past of half year. The whole first interview took around 40 minutes and DID NOT pass, because the Adjudications Officers claims my application missed 3 pieces of evidences that I suppose to bring them with me.
1. The past 2 years tax reports, including the State and Federal tax reports.
2. The IRS document I-1722, which states my pervious tax filing status.

We had our interview today and our case was APPROVED! It was fairly easy and straight forward interview.

We checked in at 8:45 AM for our 9:15 AM appointment. We were called in couple of minutes before 9:15 AM, pretty good!
