@CJ my interview was unexpectedly good, nothing that I was anticipating was asked except confirmation of my IDs, address, the names of my parents and my husband's, and the yes/no questions in form I485. My husband the petitioner was not asked anything other than to confirm.that form I130 had earlier been approved. The interview was barely 10 minutes. I have learned here that every case is different you only have to prepare well and carry with you all that you have to prove that your marriage is bonafide.

@Julie. Your interview was scheduled on Aug 17 per your timeline? Did you get status like “ready to be scheduled for interview” after the biometrics? I am stressing out because I did my biometrics and nothing updated so far
Julie LOct 11, 2021
PD, after my biometrics which was 7/7 my status changed to actively being reviewed then updated straight to interview scheduled on 8/17. Never had the ready to be scheduled..update.

@ Julie was your I-130 approved already before you when for the I-485 appointment?
Julie LOct 11, 2021
Yes, I130 was submitted earlier in mid June 2020 and was approved sometime in November. We never got any RFEs.
