So I have everything ready to be sent off. When it's sent off and if God is at my side all works out, I get the interview in the Consulate and pass that and finally get to the states and Marry. Is there another interview with both myself and my fiancee?

I read somewhere that sometimes there is and sometimes there's not. Can someone clear this up for me please??

Thank you all for all your help :)

Getting the K-1 visa and getting married is just the first step. After you marry you need to start the AOS process to apply for your green card. As a K-1 holder, you may or may not get an interview during the AOS process. See the guide: http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1k3aos

During this first step I believe the beneficiary is being interviewed. It's on the AOS stage usually both are getting interviewed separately as what I read from some posts.

The beneficiary is typically the only interviewee during the consular stage. At some locations (and Ireland is not known to be one), the petitioner's presence is officially or unofficially expected. In other locations, if the consul learns that the petitioner is on the premises, the petitioner might be invited into the interview.

If an interview is called for at the AOS and ROC stages, the couple is expected to attend. During these, separate interviews occur only during Stokes interviews, which are big trouble and thankfully rare. The beneficiary is always the only interviewee during the Naturalization interview.

Budget and allocate the funds for at least AOS now. Become a student of the process and read the Guides and forums for the successive stages.
