hi

there isn't an interview unless they don't believe your marriage is bona fide

if you've provided enough evidence, they will send you the 10 year GC by mail

it takes over 6 months, that's why you received the extension letter for a year


hi

if you don't have proof, you might get an rfe, meaning they might request more evidence and they give you a timeframe to send the evidence
