Now there is a catch:
When my husband and I got our interview, we had been married for almost 2 years, we had filed taxes twice together, we had bought a house together, we were expecting a baby, etc. As a result, my husband and I did not have to answer a lot of additional questions during our interview. After all, we had plenty of proof our marriage was not a sham.
My friends, on the other hand, had only been married for a few months and did not have that much proof. They had to answer quite a bit of questions but nothing like the movie Green Card. My friends had met at college. The officer asked them if they had brought along their transcript as proof that they both had studied there. They had not. In the end the officer asked them a few additional questions and approved their case. My friends advice: prepare well and bring along ANY possible document supporting a relationship.
