✅ EB-3 Marriage-Based AOS Approved - USA (B2 Overstay) PD 2026-01

✅ **Case Status: Approved** --- Applicant who entered on a B2 visa and overstayed with unlawful work history successfully adjusted status through marriage to a US citizen. The case went through an in-person interview at the Boston Field Office and was approved within 8 days of the interview. Total processing time from packet submission to approval was approximately 7.5 months. Case involved a B2 visa overstay with approximately 1 year of unlawful work history adjusting status through an immediate relative (spouse) petition. Packet was submitted in January 2026 and biometrics were completed in late February. The case went quiet for several months before an interview was scheduled in July for an August date. The Boston Field Office interview involved separate questioning of both the petitioner (US citizen spouse) and the applicant, with detailed questions about daily life, finances, family knowledge, and shared living arrangements. The officer reviewed bank statements and photographs in person. Despite the overstay and unlawful employment history, both I-130 and I-485 were approved within 8 days of the interview. --- **[📎 View Original Post](https://www.reddit.com/r/USCIS/comments/1w13qyr/aos_interview_experience_boston_fo/)** *Source: Reddit I-485 EB* --- *This post was automatically curated from online sources to share real case experiences with the community.*
