I am the foreign spouse and my husband is the USC 
There are some metered parking spots behind the building but if you go down the street a bit there are some free parking spots.
We arrived about 20 minutes early and there were three other couples waiting, one of them had a huge box full of documents that was about 6-7 inches thick! We just waited around 5 minutes when someone to call us in even though we were early. We were interviewed by the same officer separately starting with me. I had read that they interview couples separately in Indianapolis and I also overheard the attorney with the couple sitting behind us saying that they sometimes interview couples separately.
The officer swore me in then asked for identification. He looked at my passport while I was taking it out and said "Romania huh?" (I'm from the UK lol). Both countries have dark red passports but the UK one is a lot darker. After I corrected him, he looked at our file and asked some questions like name, DOB, husband's name and put a check by each on my file. He then asked a few questions about our relationship: how did you meet, when did you get engaged, when were you married, have you been separated since you got married, has my husband visited the UK. He wrote down my answers then told me that if my husband's answers matched mine he would approve my case and to watch out for my green card within 30 days. He didn't ask me for any of the evidence that I brought and been stressing out over - tax returns, joint bank statements, bills, photos, nothing... I was almost disappointed lol. He didn't take my EAD, AP or I-94 either.
My husband went in after me, was sworn in by the officer, asked same questions and was then told he would approve our case :D My husband said the officer also asked if he was graduating this year and when he told the officer about a job offer he got from a government agency, they ended up spending most of the time discussing government salary grades and benefits lol
Overall, a relatively easy and quick experience
