whoever did biometrics, please tell me how long it took. i have to be at work in 2 and a half hours after the appontment, so i need to know whether i will have enough time.

as far as i understand only i have to go, not my spouse?

I think that should be plenty of time - I had to wait for my AOS biometrics appt - about a 20min wait, and then to actually do the fingerprinting/photos was fast. Some people are in and out in 10-15mins. So I think you will have plenty of time

yes, only u have to go. it won't take that long at all for the actual procedure (probably 5 min). just go ~15-30 min prior to the appointment. u should be o.k. this is my experience.

If it's anything like the biometrics taken for my conditional greencard, I suspect it'll take about half an hour total. Be there early for your appointment (I was about 10 minutes early last time and was called in about on-time) and the procedure itself should't take longer than 15 minutes.

My appointment (and that of about 30 others) was at 8am in the morning which is also when the office opened. I was not the first in line, still, with handing in the appointment note, filling out a form, waiting my turn, photo and fingerprints I was out in 20 minutes.
