Don Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 (edited) Hi Everyone, We had our interview yesterday and got the approval. They gave us a piece of paper with their stamp, but must wait for actual card before we can travel. All they wanted was updated info including 2007 tax forms, I filed before my taxes were done. Plus, they did asked for proof of joint relationship I gave them: 1. Bank account with both names; just a print out of my statement. 2. Scan of credit cards; one with my name and one with her name 3. we just got a car, so we had both names on car That was good enough. Did not want more pictures or anything else. We should get the card within 6 weeks by mail. Edited September 19, 2008 by Don (see edit history) Link to comment

LeeFisher3 Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 Did you ever explain to your wife why it took so long to get a green card? I tried to explain once, but only once and then cowered in the corner for a week. Congratulations Link to comment

Don Posted September 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 Thanks everyone for the congratulations. We took so long for visa because of her name. We did the green card fairly fast. A little slower than others, but not like the visa. She was surprised it was so fast after the visa issues. She seems to understand, so no issues. PLus, she had spoken with other woman at the SoCal get togethers and many took longer, so she was happy with our speed. Those luncheons do help. Link to comment
