My wife interview was very short and the office did not ask to see any thing. Here are the questions they asked my wife:

How did you meet?

What does he do?

Why did you wait over one year to marry him?

The officer called me and asked me the last and final question

why did you marry this charming lady?

I will post in detail about interview experience upon returning to US.

By the way I bought my tickets for $897 round trip from USA and $629 one way from India.
