I received my interview notice last month and the interview was today at the Fairfax field office.

The interview went very well.  The officer was using a sign-language interpreter since the officer had some kind of a hearing/speaking disability.  But the officer was extremely courteous and nice.  He said that my petition had contained enough evidence that an RFE wasn't really required but the officer who marked the case for RFE probably didn't go through all the evidence.  He asked me about the relationship and how it went south and was satisfied with my answers and even showed some sadness at the divorce.

The interview lasted about 20 minutes and at the end of it he told me that he doesn't see any problems and the decision will be made soon after a background check.  He said the file will go back to the Vermont Service center and the card production will happen there and that I should expect the approval letter within a month and the actual card within two months.

It was a good experience and at no time was the officer doubting my sincerity.

Wow - what a long wait for you! I'm glad you had a reasonably good interview and I hope you get your new card soon!

Thanks.  I am guessing I will need to go for another biometrics appointment before I get the card, since my last biometrics for i751 was in Sep 2015 and it seems the biometrics "expire" after 15 months.
