Thanks! Yes, the officer interviewed both of us. It didn't took so long. Probably like 20 mins. The officer didn't even look at the original we brought coz she was already satisfied with everything we turned in before and she wanted to see more about our relationship. She only asked like few questions like how we met, how was the proposal, when is the wedding, and who attended. It was so smooth and the officer was so nice. No pressure at all. They focus more on your behavior and your spouse. They really wanna see if you are really in a relationship.

M DJan 27, 2022
@teey la what was the paper they provided you? I didn't sign anything except my I-485 coz the officer made couple changes. And I received a letter "notice of interview results" and was told it will take 2-3 weeks to receive the green card in the mail.

@ a b we provided pretty much everything except health/life insurance. Anything with both names like joint bank statements, joint tax returns, joint auto title and insurance, investment account, joint utilities, venmos to each other, txts, calls, photos with other people, letter from family and friends, even joint memberships and emergency contacts having each other's name. We also provided copy of birth certificates, passports, marriage certificate, name change, credit card statements, etc. anything with both names to make the case stronger.
