Hello my friend.. i hope ur fine and doing well. 

My interview was on August. All the documents were fine. I gave them what they asked me about. Then my name was called by the consular officer to the interview. The consular asked me some questions about me and my fiancé. She kept saying perfect and well done, then she gave a paper to print my name and sign it because she told me u will need it when you enter the usa. At the end of the interview, she gave me a white paper it says 221 g she told me we will send you questions through your email and after that it will take time and then we will provide you instructions how to do ur medical exam 

my case status is administrative process . Im really so worried about that! Is there any advice? And what does that all mean?

Sounds like it went well, but there is additional processing to be completed before they can issue the visa.

I'm guessing the questions being asked are a DS-5535 (even if it isn't always labeled exactly as such) for background checks.

What country?

Thank you. Yes, additional background checks would be the norm rather than the exception. It's just a waiting game for them to finish at this point. Best wishes.
