on March 22,2021 I done my IR1 visa interview in US embassy Islamabad Pakistan twice morning 10. 00 am and afternoon 2.00 pm. 
At 10. 00 am The consular officer took my interview for almost 3-minutes and give me a form (221 g) and written there that come again  today afternoon 2 o'clock for further questions regarding your case. I went again on the same day March 22,2021 afternoon 2.00pm , they took me to a separate room and took my interview again for almost 1 hour and 40 minutes asking me bunch of questions regarding our relationship, marriage etc and writing my answers on paper and recording my voice . 
In last they took my passport, marriage certificate, recent tax return of my wife, birth certificate and marriage photographs and told me your interview is done, a desicion will be made on your case by the consular officer which took your interview initially at 10.00 am   for issuing you the visa or not. 
 
So I need to worry about this or it's a part of visa interview? 
My ceac status still shows READY when I will change to administrative processing or something else?

3 minutes is normal

 

An hour and 40 minutes is not

Definitely atypical.   Are there lots of red flags?

 

Sorry to say, you may be in for a lengthy AP.

Arsalan11 I hope and pray there will be no red flag InshAllah , in first 3 minutes they asked me how did you meet  with  your spouse for the first time ? Do you have any matual friend. Then I was explaining but probably he didn't understood the way I speak then he call a translator, I talk to him in urdu and he translate it to the consular officer, after that the officer told me to wait for 5 minutes on chair , then he call me after 7-8 minutes and give me a 221 g form with no documents required to submit, just only written there come at 2.00 pm. 

Then my interview goes for 1 hour and 40 minutes 

 

Actually my spouse is US citizen and she is migrated to USA, and I am from Pakistan we meet online in 2014,then personally we meet in 2017 and 2018-19 and get married, so off course lot of questions will come in there mind because of cultur difference and also because of our nationality. 

It's more easier to explain how did you meet if you got married with a local girl with same nationality then a different one
