Take The Next Step  \nIntroduction  \nFor most immigrants, the permanent residence interview is the end of a long, stressful, and anxiety-ridden journey.  \nIn some cases, the journey has taken over 20 years. In many, the wait has been 10 years or longer. In almost all of them, the date of the interview is a nerve-whacking experience where both husband and wife have to deal with knots in their stomachs, sweaty palms, and . . .  \nA distrustful immigration officer.  \nAn officer who, with a stroke of a pen, has the ability to put a serious dent into acouple's life plans.  \nEvery year more than 20,000 immigrants and their spouses go through this process.  \nEvery year thousands are denied the chance to live happily ever after with the love of their lives, many of whom are then permanently separated from their children and extended family members.  \nOften, the problem is due to careless preparation. Faulty paperwork and inadequate evidence lead the government to schedule in-depth questioning of the husband and wife, separately, concerning the authentic nature of the marriage.  \nThe numbers and types of questions that can be asked are nearly endless.  \nAs a green card attorney, I've met couples who, despite a genuine marriage, were notable to convince government officers that their union was legitimate..  \nThey failed to take the permanent residence interview process seriously enough. They  \nfailed to review their life history together in advance and had difficulties remembering certain facts about their relationship.  \nDon't let that happen to you.  \nThat's why I have put together this checklist.  \nThe 250 questions outlined here are only a tiny sprinkling of what you may be asked.  \nBut they are more t han sufficient to get you ready for the type of matters you will be forced to recall.  \nNow it's up to you. Get to work and start studying.  \nTo Your Immigration Success!  \nCarlos A.
