Same officers with the same info. How the interview is (length, detailed questions etc) will depend a lot on the individual case but from reading interview experiences on here and my own DCF, I think DCF cases tend to have an easier time, interviews tend to be shorter and often very little of the bonafide evidence the beneficiary brings along is even looked at. This is because the USC moving to the foreign country and the couple living together, often for years, before the interview means that there is a lot of proof of bonafides.
