1.  Your wife not being there will not be a problem.

2.  If you have everything they require on the checklist in addition to the items you listed for evidence of relationship,  you should be OK, imo.

3.  You should "act" normally.  You should answer all questions truthfully.

 

You should expect your case to be placed in Administrative Processing.  If that happens, don't panic.  It is normal, but it could take a few days, weeks, or months.

 

Good Luck to you and your wife.
