Today I went to Chicago Field Office with my wife. The interviewing officer was a very nice lady. She first asked us to take oath and then asked for our Photo IDs. After that she asked how did you meet, we told the whole story. She asked for our marriage certificate and said that she doesnt have that on file (strange because I had sent the documents with the application already). I gave her that. She asked to see our passports. Then she asked if we have any photos, we showed her a whole album. She took a few photos from it, she was particularly interested in photos of me with my wife's family and my wife's with my family. The album contained our wedding ceremony photos and some other general photos we had together. After photos she asked for any bonafide documents we have relating to marriage. We gave her our joint tax filing documents which had our name together. I showed her a checkbook from our joint account, it had both of our names. she took a deposit slip from it and kept it. She asked do you have any other accounts i said we have credit cards with same account number. She made a copy of them too. Then she went on asking several yes/no questions relating to like being arrested, criminal history, drug trafficking and she asked have you ever claimed verbally or in written that you are a US Citizen? She then told us about the removal of conditions process and told me that when you go to get a drivers license tell them ahead of time to not register you as voter because that may do serious immigration problems for you since you may be asked to sign the form, and if you do it then it may be termed as "falsely claiming to be a US Citizen". Then she walked us out in a very elegant manner. She had a very polite way of talking and had a nice smile on her face all the time. There was a small camera mounted up near the ceiling in the room.
In the afternoon I got the update from USCIS website which said "new card is being produced".
