Good luck indeed, as long as you have your documents the interview is very easy, you will be surprised how little they actually ask for.

Kevin

this is true. my wife just had her interview last Wednesday, Nov 2nd. they asked less than 8 questions building up to my trips there and when and where we got married. she simply showed the consul our pictures - about 12 in all, the consul looked through them and when she saw pictures of our wedding she said "congratulations, have a happy trip" and approved my wife's visa. so i think, if you applying for a CR1 or IR1 visa, and you have good collection of evidence in pictures then the interview is very easy. my two cents.
