So here it goes: our interview experience!

 

Our appointment was today at 1.30pm at Federal Plaza. We went there very early went through airport style security and into the building. We were directed to the exact room with other people waiting. We sat and waited 15 min before our appointment to check in. We were told we were the last couple for the particular officer. After waiting for about an hour around 2.40, after all the couple around us switched with new ones we were called in. Our officer was a man in his late 30s or early 40s. He seemed nice and pleasant. Swore us in and told us to sit down. He asked about our DLs previous EAD/AP and passports. He asked me about my birth place and date of birth and then my spouse the same questions. He asked us where we work and what do we do. He asked my spouse what I like to do in my spare time and he asked me what's My spouses best friends name. After that there were Yes/No questions from I-485. Lucky us systems were down and he couldn't do final checks for us. Then he mentioned that they require them to do those checks while we are present so we might be called in again, but he also said our case looked fine and we seem to know each other well and all. He didn't take my current EAD/AP nor take my last I-94 from couple of months ago, not looked at our passports or birth certificates. We submitted joint bank account, phone bill with both our names, joint taxes and itineraries for trips together. He said most likely we wouldn't be called in, but we shouldn't be shocked if we do. He was very ambitious and never gave a certain answer. He said they were overwhelmed with cases and maybe we'll get a result within a week, or two or more. He never gave us any paper. My status online hasn't changed. Makes a bit nervous and annoyed also. If anyone has any input, you're more than welcome...otherwise that's about it with the whole experience 🤞🏼

We were approved today as well! 14+ Months after PD.

 

Our interview was March, and this was in a holding pattern until we contacted the Ombudsman, so you may want to try that if you are beyond normal processing times.

 

Also make sure your medical isn't expired, that was our final hurdle. 

 

Good luck all!
