tania_magaly 9 Posted May 22, 2013 Since this is new, I would like for us to share our experiences being interviewed... please state when your interview is and why you think you are being interviewed, also where you are from! I have called Uscis and they don't give me any info other than "the agent reviewing your case believed it was necessary". I have mine on June 20. I believe I am being interviewed because I didn't provide income or expenses on I-765 Worksheet. Please share all your interview experience here! I am from OC California!

tania_magaly 9 Posted May 28, 2013 Ok guys, update*** So I have been doing my homework, and been asking people around the internet here and there about this whole interview process. So basically this is what goes on during the interview: You go in, show your ID and your notice you got in the mail. DO NOT take in your phone, as they will make you take it back to the car and this could make you late for your interview. You wait for a little while and they call you in. They make you swear that you will be telling the truth. They take you inside an office. They tell you it is just a procedure, something random. Then they ask everything about the I-821 D application (the 6 page one) Nothing about the I765 or i765WS (work permit) applications. While asking you, they are watching your every move, so if you do stuff like tilt your head (something that shows you are in doubt) they will ask you more about that question. They go over every single question, so you might want to take a look at that application question by question and make sure you know what you answered. No one should have a problem because you should know the questions since they are about your life. Of course never mention any details if they ask you how you got here. You can say you don't recall, you were little. Back to the interview, it is very brief, 15-20 minutes. The agents are not wearing a uniform, they are normal people. After the agent is finished reviewing every question, he or she will tell you that you should receive a notice within the next 30 days. It actually takes 3 weeks. And this is it! Extra: You might want to take more evidence in case they ask you, but this really hasn't happened to anyone. They do ask you if it's the same evidence as the one you provided. And they do not review it. But do take a copy of your whole packet and the originals just to be on the safe side Good luck and be prepared!!! I know it is stressful and dreadful, but everything is looking great for us! Let's not panic! 2 stolenlacs and Dreamer3oh3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mm22806 12 Posted June 1, 2013 Pattij that is great!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have my interview on thursday hopefully my approval is next !!!!!! crossing fingers !!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tania_magaly 9 Posted June 5, 2013 Update*** Additional questions they might ask you: what schools you went to, if you work, where, under what social, and why you want DACA. So be prepared!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tania_magaly 9 Posted June 7, 2013 Update*** Additional questions they might ask you: how you crossed the boarder, does the SS# belong to someone you know, and maybe even what have you done since you graduated from High School. At first it was just the application questions, now they are adding more questions. We don't know why, but we believe it depends on your case and how nervous or suspicious you look. Once again, be PREPARED. The interview process seems to be your ticket to approval. Also, most people are getting approved within 2 days and receiving their work permits in approximately a week!!!! Seems like all the stress pays off!!! 1 Dreamer3oh3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tania_magaly 9 Posted June 21, 2013 So guys finally had my interview!!! Everything went great! The agents were extremely nice and asked me some of the questions on the application... they also asked me if I had used a fake social and if it belonged to someone. They asked me what I have been doing since I graduated from high school. If I was married or had kids. I was very nervous, but they made me feel comfortable. My interview was at 1:30 pm, and by 4 pm I checked the uscis website, and I was on the card production stage!!! Two hours later, both of my applications were approved!!! Can't wait to get my work permit! !!!!! 3 Dreamer3oh3, stolenlacs and kayej87 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
