Thank you!!! I am married to a US citizen but I filed under the 5 year rule. I did it online and I only uploaded what they requested from me, which was: My green card, my husband's birth certificate, our marriage license and tax transcripts of the last five years.

At the interview, the officer did not ask me for a single document except for the interview letter and green card.

Hope it moves quickly for you! Did you get any notice on re-using biometrics yet? 

I did. Same day I filed. If you filed online, you should see it under the documents tab in the USCIS web site.
