Fastest Green Card Interview Yet – Just 7 Minutes!

Fastest Green Card Interview Yet – Just 7 Minutes!

At Lally Immigration Services, we are proud to celebrate a new milestone: one of our marriage-based green card clients recently completed their entire USCIS adjustment interview in only 7 minutes!

For context, most green card interviews last anywhere from 20 minutes to over an hour, depending on the complexity of the case. Officers often ask dozens of questions, review years of documentation, and go into detail about the couple’s relationship history. 

To have an interview wrapped up in less than 10 minutes is a strong indicator that the case was meticulously prepared, well-documented, and persuasive from the outset.

Why Did It Go So Quickly?

  • Thorough Preparation: We guided our clients through every step, from completing forms to organizing supporting evidence into a clean, easy-to-follow presentation.

  • No Loose Ends: Because we addressed potential issues in advance, the officer had no need to probe further.

  • Clear Evidence of a Real Marriage: Our documentation strategy left no doubt about the bona fides of the relationship.

What This Means for Future Clients

Of course, not every interview will be this short; each case is different and USCIS officers handle interviews in their own way. What this result shows is the power of professional preparation. When everything is presented clearly and completely, the USCIS can often make a decision with minimal questioning.

Ready to Start Your Green Card Journey?
