- This video is part two of our three-part series on preparing for your Green Card Marriage Interview Questions. (In case you missed Part 1 of this series on what green card marriage questions you might be asked at your interview: • Your Green Card Marria... )
This video is produced by Immigration Attorney Carlos Batara, www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
We continue our review of the inquiries you may need to answer in your interview for permanent residence with a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) officer.
In this video, we will cover questions that might surface in your immigration marriage interview about the following four areas of your marital relationship: (a) questions about your wedding and marriage, (b) questions about your kitchen, (c) questions about your bedroom, and (d) questions about what you did the day before, the two days before, the week before you permanent residency marriage interview.
You might say to yourself, “Why prepare for my green card marriage interview? This is easy stuff.”
Don’t be too sure.
By the end of this video, I hope that you’ll realize these tips for your family-based adjustment of status interview are not something to avoid. Rather, embrace them as a green card interview guide because the questions you are asked could be much, much harder than you ever imagine.
To refresh your recollection, in the first video, we talked about inquiries into how you and your spouse met, your employment and your spouse’s employment, your current home, and special family days.
Here is the link to video 1 on the types of marriage green card questions you could be asked: • Your Green Card Marria...
If you haven’t watched the first video, you may want to pause this video, and go back and watch part 1 of this series, Then return to this video, as you’ll be able to better grasp how these various topical areas fit together.
In that video, I briefly mentioned that not every couple is forced to go through an intensive immigration interview question and answer session about marriage. When this happens, this is referred to as a Stokes Interview.
So much of the advice in this three-part series can be utilized as a Stokes marriage interview guide, and will help you prepare for the government's marriage-based immigration fraud questioning.
As I note throughout these videos, if your permanent residency application, the I-485 adjustment of status application is bona fide, is real, is legitimate, this part of the permanent resident process should be easy for you . . . granted you prepare.
In other words, when couples have to endure the lengthier inquiries, the interview is usually based on a suspicion of immigration fraud, i.e., immigration marriage fraud.

Educative and informative

Best of luck in your interview.
Thank u so much carlos u r a boss.
Hi Toneka:
Thanks for the nice compliment.
It’s so true most couple are real marriage but never pay attention about the interviewer, no wonder so many case are denied in Los Angeles office.
I don't handle many Los Angeles cases, so I am not sure about their denial rate. The ones that I have handled were successfully granted. But given my court experiences in Los Angeles, I have noticed a lot of folks who were not prepared adequately.
Thank you very much sir
I'm glad this video was able to help you.
Powerful!!!very helpful carlos.
Thanks!
Bedroom questions, we sleep in separate rooms, I go to bed early and she doesn't get home from work until 11 pm and doesn't want to disturb me. I am 70 yr old and got married for companionship, I think a lot of oldsters do.
Did you have a question?
how might we ans. questions about our bedrooms ? Right now we are renting rooms in a house and we live in separate spaces. We share the kitchen, living room, dining rm etc.
@@cat-lw6kq it's okay to marry for companionship. the USCIS will only object if the marriage is a sham and you don't live tgether and don't care about each other, you just did it for a green card. marriages take all forms, but a sham marriage is not a marriage and not a basis for a green card. and anyway, marriage just saves a few years. if you are here for 5 years you can still apply for a green card, a marriage just means you can apply right away.
I care about her, want a better life for her. she is very independent does not want to accept welfare. we have a pretty close friendship.
Nice
Thanks.
Mr Carlos what about the marriage is real but both parents are overseas, also decided not to invite friends but 2 friends only
This is the type of situation where the couple is likely to be tested quite heavily regarding the authenticity of their marriage. But it can be done successfully. You will need to spend a fair amount of time carefully thinking about the type of evidence you can provide to the government to prove your marriage is not fraudulent.
By any chance do you offer any interview prep videos for a spouse who lives outside of the US, has never been outside of his country...therefore we have never lived together nor have any joint accounts/property. Please help, thank you!
Such cases are not as uncommon as you might think. However, it is your best interests to seek out a local lawyer to go over the details of your situation before you start the immigration process.
Carlose gm what if a guy married a girl from another country and when she came to the usa she live with him for two months and one day she pack her close and moved out with her daughter, note he brough her daughter too the same time, he didnt adopt the daughter. However the moved to another state without telling him is he still has to support them? What she did is more like desertion.
I'm not sure. Your question seems to be in the area of family law and divorce law. You might want to contact an attorney who practices that type of law.
Okay cool n thank you sir.
Are they gonna question us anything outside what are in the forms we submitted?
The forms ask questions in a general format. This means more questions can flow out of your responses.
Hi Mr Carlos, thank you so much for the valuable information. My question to you is that; I have a GC-EAD and I wanna travel overseas, do you think it’s okay to travel without any issues at the border protection?? If so, is there any specific documents I have to carry with me when I travel?
When one travels abroad, even if he or she is in legal status, one has to be careful. This is especially true if there are some issues which could affect your re-entry. You might want to meet with a local immigration lawyer to go over if it is safe for you to travel abroad.
Me , my wife and 2 kids live with her mom and dont have joint accounts or bills except cell and car insurance together does that help ? Or do we have to have joint accounts and all the stuff ?
Do your best to explain your story. Why do you live with your mother? Why don't you have joint accounts? If you can explain those types of issues, and support it with good evidence, your chances of success improve.
How does it work with theses interviews when we live in diff countries as I will be going to the interview by myself as he will be in the Us I am in Canada.
Depending on what you are applying for, you are allowed to go allow. Check with the consulate in your country.
Hello ,i have a question if one of us don't speak English that much ,and i don't have a translator.what should i do?
Assuming you are referring to going to an appointment, bring a translator to the interview.

Without knowing more about your relationship and other issues, it is impossible to tell how likely you are to succeed if you filed immigration documents.
Please sir, what happens if one of the spouse doesn't live in the united state?
It depends. I suggest you reach out to a local attorney to provide more details to, so he or she can possibly guide you.
My husband has an interview coming soon, is it necessary for myself to go, since the letter said it wasn't necessary for me to go. What would you recommend.
What type of interview is it? For some interviews, it is crucial that both spouses attend.
@@BataraImmigrationLaw it's for residential
What if your spouse is not here and he's in another country
That could fit a lot of situations. I'm not sure what you are asking, without more details. Do you mean at the time of the interview?
@@BataraImmigrationLaw yes at the time of the interview?
I don't even remember what we ate two nights ago 😣
Yes, you do. It might take a discussion with you and your spouse to refresh your memory.
Hi please I want talking with you please
Feel free to contact my office to set up an appointment. Thanks for asking.
@@BataraImmigrationLaw thank you so much soon I will contact with you
Here is a real question. Me and wife are both US citizens, have been even before we got married, we have 2 kids. Are they going to question us like this?
If you're citizens, why should immigration officials contact you?
BataraImmigrationLaw I was joking. But thanks for you videos
Okay.
That’s the dumbest comment in this video 😂
FreakyVines yes it is
