Got to the entrance, they ask for the appointment letter/email (printed) and Passport - they check it and lead you to security. They ask you if you have any electronics on you. Security took a couple of mins to get through because I had a bottle of water in my bags so they asked me to drink a sip and then sent me to the building where they interview you.
At the interview building, they ask for passport and appointment letter/email again, they give you a number and send you to the appropriate floor. From here you just wait for your number to be shown on the screen - the TV makes a ding/ting sound eveytime a new number shows up. I went up when my number showed up on the screen - Here they give you a paper with information for immigrants and ask you to read it. Then they asked for passport, civil documents*, 1 passport size photograph and the appointment letter with the number sticker on, took biometrics, contact number and asked when my best travel date would be. They also confirmed a few dates like where I was born and if I'd been married before, had a little chat about where I was moving, etc and then asked me to take a seat.
*Civil documents:
Marriage certificate
Police certificate
Birth certificate
After waiting for 15mins, my number showed up on the TV screen again and I went to a different window, this is where the oath happened, biometrics were taken again, and questions were asked;
1. Where we met
2. Which year did we meet
3. Which year did we start dating
4. Why am I moving to the US instead of husband moving here
At the end the lady said everything checks out and said I'll get my passport back 1-2 weeks. She also gave a small card that says visa receipt information which has ais.usvisa-info.com.en_GB.iv for tracking purposes.
