Hello.

I don't want to worry you but my interview was not the most pleasant experience. And the IO did not seem very friendly. Overall I would say my AOS interview was easier and more pleasant than N-400 interview. 

My interview was held on the 1st and 3rd floor and consisted of 3 parts: 1) they update your personal information, ask for address, marital status, kids, job etc, when you are done you sit and wait 2)civics test - 6 questions - and English test (read and write a sentence), then sent me upstairs for the 3rd part, 3) interview with the IO itself. 

I applied based on 3 year rule - marriage to a US citizen and brought a lot of proof and evidence. The IO noticed that but did NOT ask for anything. Not even for 2018 tax return (it was not on file since I applied in July 2018). The IO did NOT ask me the required yes/no questions about prostitution / terrorism / communist party etc. 

The IO asked a LOT of questions about my life in my home country prior to coming to the US. I was not asked many questions about my life here. The interview was more like interrogation, at least that's the impression I got. It lasted about an hour. 

I brought my spouse with me and my spouse was not allowed to be present during the interview. I asked. And my spouse was worried that the interview was taking that long and I was there for so long. 

The IO asked some of the questions 2-3 times but changing the wording a little bit. And the IO was constantly changing topics and time periods. It looked like they were trying to catch me lying. 

Needless to say when the interview was over I was exhausted. I think the entire process (all three parts) took about 4 hours.

But

My friend who had her interview a couple of weeks later had an absolutely different experience. Her interview was fast (no more than an hour, that's what she said), she was not interrogated and her entire process was on the first floor. She also said that she was not asked many questions.

So I guess it all depends on your case and on the immigration officer. 

Good luck to you! Hopefully your interview experience will be smooth and easy.
