Our K1-->AOS interview occurred on March 30, 2023. After checking in and doing yet another round of fingerprints, we sat for maybe 15 minutes before we were called to the back. It turns out that none of our biometric appointments yielded usable fingerprints, so we were initially concerned when we were asked to sign a witnessed statement that revolved around criminal acts, but it turns out that if they can't get fingerprints then they will make you sign this form and retrieve police clearance certificates for all locations at which you have lived for the previous 5 years. Unfortunately, you will only learn this during the interview so they will be unable to approve or deny you until you get an RFE for the police clearance certificates. Beyond that, the interview was surprisingly simple. We were only asked very simple questions regarding the relationship - what's your spouse's birthday, how did you meet, what are the names of your spouse's parents, etc. The immigration officer never asked to see any pictures or evidence besides our driver's licenses. I really can't say if this is because we already 'proved' our relationship at the K1 stage or if this immigration officer just didn't feel like he needed to ask many questions. My only knock against the process is that it would have been nice to know about the biometrics issue so that we could have prepared the police clearance certificates in advance. Our RFE appeared in our account the same day as the interview, we sent the response early the next week, and we were approved 10 days after they allege to have received our response. .
