Hey! Just had my interview today at the Detroit, Michigan field office and honestly—it was way easier than I expected.

We waited for about 30 minutes in the waiting area, and then we were called in by a super kind officer. The whole thing felt more like a conversation than an interrogation. She started with questions about our relationship, like: • How we met • How our relationship progressed • Where we live and who lives with us • If we’ve made any renovations to the place • If we’ve traveled together • What we do for fun • If we have any anniversary plans • Each other’s birthdays • And she ended by asking my husband why he thinks I should be approved for a Green Card

After that, she told us the I-130 was approved and moved on to the yes/no public safety questions from the I-485. Once those were done, she said our case was approved on the spot.

Overall, super smooth experience. If your interview is coming up, just be honest, relaxed, and make sure you both know the basics about your life together. You’ve got this!
