Q: What should I do when the Immigration officer ask me?
My wife and I are from the same country. However, she has US citizenship. When I submitted the AOS application (F1-visa), my wife was overseas, she is there for family matters.
The interview of AOS based on marriage is in two weeks. What should I tell the officer? is it a problem that she is currently overseas and I am still here as a student? She will be here to attend the interview, but she has to go back after that.
(Joint bank account&credit cards,car insurance, photos, wedding photos, family visites)
Any advice? What should I do when the Immigration officer ask me?
A:
If your U.S. citizen spouse is the petitioner of the relative petition that was filed with USCIS then both of you must present evidence that both of you are involved in a good faith marriage.
You also can explain the “ family matters “ that have caused your spouse to remain abroad and away from you.
A visit with an experienced immigration attorney can assist you in preparing for the adjustment of status interview with USCIS.
