Just got our 48 mo extension letter. Filed feb 2022

Interview was today and was so quick and easy. About 5 minutes total. Was asked how we met and engagement story. Then showed him some financial documents.  Then I showed him wedding album and as he looked at it he said immediately “ok obviously this is a bonafied marriage” and approved us on spot. Was updated online within hour and told to expect in mail in 1-2 weeks.  Way less stressful than expected. Our lawyer came with us (was included in our contract) and said that was one of most quick interviews he had seen.  What a burden off shoulders 

Edited not AO but AP (advance parole)

Just got my interview scheduled today!  We got our EAD/AO approved last week as well as moved to be ready to be scheduled (took forever). We accidentally didnt file the AO until end of Dec (lawyer error) and it got approved with the EAD (making it just 3 weeks processing time..).  We were getting frustrated due to everything taking a long time and had our congressperson submit congressional inquiry. Within a week of her office talking to immigration the  EAD/AO was approved and case ready to be scheduled for interview. Who knows if was related but seems very possible and I recommend any May filers who are late like us to try that.
