The staff in the Immigrant Visa section were very helpful and friendly. Filing the I-130 was very easy and there were very little questions asked when we were both there together.
My husband went to the final interview alone and even though we had given them documents in the first interview a month prior, they wanted to see everything again. Unfortunately, I did not send the original proof of relationships documents with my husband as I thought we had already turned them in and they saw them and kept what they wanted. They gave my husband a hard time about that, so he had a longer interview with questions that were based on information that we had written on the forms... like "Who is Melanie" (my mother), etc. Easy questions if you are a valid couple!
Even though it says that the American spouse doesn't have to be there, they seemed to question why I wasn't there. (I was 12 weeks pregnant and not feeling well enough to deal with Ukrainian trains). But, in the end, he was approved after a 20 min interview.
