So, last week we had our AOS Interview in Holtsville NY, we got married in August last year, I was on a B2 visa and my I-94 expired in September, we sent the AOS package in November, got my EAD in January and the interview was on April 12th.

The interview was at 10:30 am, we got there around 10:20. Checked in, and waited to be called, it took around 25 minutes to be called. Once we got in the IO swore us in and asked me the questions on the form about crimes and terrorism, then he asked if anything has changed since we sent the application, we said no, then he asked for a picture of the wedding, since i brought a photobook with the wedding pictures, he told me to choose any other picture I could give him of us. I gave him the pictures and he said that we were all set, the card was gonna arrive in about 13 days, he explained that we have to send a form to remove the conditions in 2 years and the my husband started chatting with him about all the documents and pictures we brought and he said that he could see we were real from the beginning. By 11:00 we were leaving, it was really fast, the IO was very pleasant. We are very happy!!! Got my card on Saturday, 9 days after the interview.

After all the preparation for the interview and reading so many reviews, what I can say about this process is that if you have nothing wrong and nothing to hide, don't bring an attorney and just be honest.

Good luck to you all!! And thank you for the helpful posts!
