We weren't sure if I would be allowed to interpret so we brought an interpreter just in case. Mostly the interview went ok. She first asked to see various original copies and things that we had brought. Then she asked some questions about our relationship. She then asked some questions about his family. He couldn't remember the year of his son's birth, even though he knew his birthday and age (not so good at mental math) and when I tried to help by procuring the birth certificate she got really grumpy and said she needed him to tell her (even though we aren't petitioning for the kids anyway). After that she asked some more questions, then asked nearly every single yes/no question on the form we sent in and then it was over. She said she couldn't tell us if we were approved, but by the evening when we checked online after a few hours of stress it was changed to approved.

Hy to all VJ fanily, after a very lengthy long K1 visa process we were approved June 2011 got married August 2011.
Today 25 January 2012 5 months later on we were interviewed in Detroit and were approved our Green Card, A day before the inteview the Combo card for work and advance parole came that was nicely timed.
The interview lasted at least 30 mins she asked us some generic questions about our relationship how we met and if we were still married?? then she checked off the information already on file and asked for any addtional, we supplied our W2 and some photos (4) with our insurance documents, car and bank details. The officer took copies of our Driving licence and my birth certificate again and then gave us a form relating to applying for the ROC in two years that was it over and she said I am pleased to say your Green Card will be with you in 2- 3 weeks.
The whole process has been long and some what stressful for us both, however we can relax for at least for 21 months nearly 2 years. To all of you that have supported us on this journey with advice of some kind or just your postings of how you are all doing, a heartfelt thanks from us both to you all. A special thanks to Amerbrit, A&F, B Rossow, Tyger87 and all my VJ friends.
To those who are waiting for interviews collate as much information together as possible and just have everything ready for the day. The interview was very informal she made us feel very relaxed and we were both asked general questions nothing to make us at all nervous, so be yourself confident relaxed and most of all honest.

Polite people from start to finish. A quick and easy process. We waited in the lobby for about an hour (we were very early) and called into the interview 15 minutes ahead of schedule. Our interviewer was a pleasant gentleman, straightforward and to-the-point, but very polite. Interview lasted only 10 minutes with approval on the spot. Minimal questions were asked, including dates of birth, how we met, how we got along with each other's families, how many people were at our reception, and what each other's hobbies are. Quick, simple, much easier than we had expected.

We arrived at about 10.45 for our 11am interview, went to the window to log our arrival, then sat in the waiting room for about 10 minutes before my name was called. The interviewer was incredibly shy, and lacking in people skills, avoided eye contact and didn't really say much. I had 2 huge files of stuff, along with a big photo album - none of which was needed. He asked a few questions like my parents names, husbands date of birth & my address - all questions from the forms submitted. He asked my husband how we met, and then said I'd have my greencard in about 2 weeks. I'd say we were there for 5 minutes at the most, and had the distinct feeling we were approved before we even walked in the door.
Although it was a very easy interview, I wouldn't say it was pleasant at all. I felt very relaxed about the whole thing until I met the interviewer, his lack of people skills made both of us feel on edge. I wasn't expecting him to be our friend, but I did think someone in a position like that would be able to hold a conversation, without looking like he was terrified of people!
The interviewer wasn't unpleasant, just painfally shy.
However, the security staff, and the guy at the window were incredibly friendly and helpful, also, the other people who were being called before us seemed to have friendly interviewers greeting them...... guess it all depends who you get!
I am from the UK - not sure if that has an influence on my interview or not, but thought i'd add to help out people reading the review

Interview was scheduled for today, 11/7. My husband and I were there about a half hour early, got through security (person in front of me brought a backpack in and held every one up, don't ever do this, you're going for an interview or biometrics, not for a campout in the parking lot!) and went to Check-in desk, lady was very nice and pointed us to the correct check-in desk at counter 8. Again, very nice lady, she marked us off, scanned the interview notice and let me know that the interviewer was with an earlier appointment and to sit down as he would call my name at a door that lead to the offices.
Waited for about 20 minutes, watched as the other couples and families were very efficiently brought into the inner sanctum. As I said, after 20 minutes my name was called and we both went through to his office. He told us to sit and relax, that there was no need to be nervous (which actually worked!) and I could see our file on his desk, our marriage invite on top. He confirmed my husband's name, date of birth and where he grew up. Then confirmed my maiden name, my parent's first names and birthday. Then, he confirmed the year that we met each other, the date I entered the country and the date that we were married. Asked for a photocopy of our marriage certificate which I gave him.
Then he advised us that our case was very straightforward and that he was approving it that day! Asked if we had moved, which we had and I gave him a copy of our apartment lease and he told me that he would update it in the system, and to expect my green card within the next 2 weeks. (Confirmed later at home online that he had definitely approved it and the case is now at card printing). At the end, he joked a little and told us not to take a wrong turn and take the tunnel to Canada as I have to wait for the green card to leave the country and get back into it successfully. We shook hands, he led us out and I left with a huge smile on my face! 
Everyone was very helpful, nice and well organised. Very happy with the experience!
