Green Card Interview

Monday February 24th I had my interview for my green card. I was so nervous I could not even sleep the day before. I had read online about how these interviews work and I think that scared me because they often said that the interviewers are often very mean and kinda out to get you, so I was worried I did not have enough evidence to prove our relationship (Even though I had a full box of papers).

So we decided to leave early so we would be there on time and we got to the USCIS like 45 min before my appointment so I had to sit there in the waiting room for a long time before the called my name.

After they called my name they took me and my husband to a room where the woman was waiting for us. The woman was so scary and did not even smile at us as we took the oath that said we will tell the truth. She said put all your papers down and sit there quietly until I say you can speak. She was so serious it just made me even more nervous. We sat there quietly until she asked us some questions, and as we answered our questions, she began to warm up to us and started to become nicer and more approachable.

The whole process took about 1 hour and the first half hour was really bad and nerve wrecking but the other part was fine.

She gave us a paper and said that I was approved and that was it. I still can't believe that this whole process is done for now. All I have to work on now is keep collecting evidence about our relationship so that I can send that to the USCIS before my card expires.
