We had an extremely positive experience with our officer. He explained that there are no questions about our marriage and that the fact that we waited all of two and half years just to get the interview had to do with backlog and not an issue with our case. He was direct about the fact that it would only be a few more days before we heard back. He asked us to show our debit cards from shared bank accounts and he looked at our joint credit cards. Our lawyer was shocked at how nice he was and told us that this friendliness and openness was the exception and not the rule. We are still glad we got lawyers given the current climate and we continue to wait for approval but I had such a positive experience that I had to share it in case anyone is worried. We are also a same sex couple, two women of color and we had a really super positive experience in that interview today. Will say more if my wife's green card is approved without issue.

Appt was at 9:45 AM at Chicago FO, there weren't many people ahead of us, maybe like 3-4 people were called until it was our turn, I'd say we waited like 10-15 minutes, which is much faster than I expected. The interviewer was a nice young lady, glad we didn't get a grumpy one. We were sworn in and asked to produce our IDs and passports (I had both and my wife only had her foreign passport, interviewer said that was OK), the interview notice, and the certified marriage certificate (which we were given back.) We also mentioned that we got an updated medical since the overseas was missing some vaccines so the sealed envelope was opened and scanned in. Those were the only documents we had to provide physically, the rest was uploaded online (of course, we still brought physical copies to the interview just in case).
The interviewer said that since we already did a K1 interview we won't have to go through bona-fide marriage evidence stuff, and just asked us how and when we me... read complete review

I recently had my n400 interview at the Chicago office. I went up to the third floor, signed in at the window and sat down in the waiting area with my husband. We arrived around 20 minutes early and waited around 40 minutes total. When the USCIS officer called me up my husband came with me. She politely asked who he was, and asked him to please take a seat we won’t be long. He was fine with that, he just wanted the officer to know he attended with me.
The interview was straightforward. We started with the civics questions and moved onto reviewing my application. The officer didn’t need any of my documents, it was clear she had reviewed the ones I uploaded and she asked questions relating to those too. I had a few answers on the forms to update. At the end I was recommended for approval and was told I will receive an oath ceremony appointment in the mail and an update on the website soon.
Overall smooth and calm process. The officer was professional, po... read complete review

Very friendly officer and the whole process was very smooth. The conversation was natural and the officer asked us about how we met, where do we live and all simple questions that a couple should be able to answer. No stress at all.
