AOS interview today - pending for FBI background check! *sigh*

I had an interview today w/ my husband (USC) in Santa Ana, CA. Everything was surprisingly smooth, the only question we were asked was "how did you guys meet?" The officer didnt even take a look at our pics.

What he kept in file:
- Car registration copy (joint title)
- Joint auto insurance copy
- Joint credit card statements copy
- Joint Costco membership cards copy
- Joint bank statements copies
- Life insurance copy
- My birth certificate copy
- Our passports, driver licenses & social security cards copies
- Our co-sponsors financial support docs

Bad thing came to the end. My FBI background check result hasnt returned yet! I thought it shouldnt be a big deal but after I came to this forum & noticed a lot of ppl having the same problem as mine... now I realize its possible to take months to clear... I start getting worried! *sigh*


My timeline:

Received date: 8/18/05
Priority date: 8/18/05
Fingerprint: 11/04/05
EAD: 11/08/05
AOS interview: 2/16/05 - went through but pending for FBI background check!

It is possible that they havent checked the system to see what the FBI results are. That is what happenned to me. I had my intreview on the 10th and the officer said the FBI name check wasnt complete. Yesterday my online status changed to approved and it said they were mailing the card soon. So dont lose hope. It could be a quick thing.

Congrats to you Princess ! Dont lose hope !

Thanks guys. Hope the situation wouldnt be too bad.
But I think the officer did check the system before telling me my FBI result hasnt returned yet (I saw him very carefully entering my name into the system & spent like more than 2 minutes staring at the monitor )
Looks like its due to the slow processing of FBI.

Ill keep updated once I have the good news!
