Woke up this morning to New Card being produced! Was almost in tears I’m so happy! The app did not update but both the new and old site did  

Hello, dear Berries! I'm here to share my interview experience.
It was yesterday, on January 15th in Seattle, WA. It was very easy and we got approved at spot.
 
We arrived 40 minutes earlier, went through security check (they most likely will ask you to take your shoes off - pretty much like in an airport), then got our number (it was 52) and went upstairs where the interview rooms are. We heard numbers 34 and 35 called and were sure to get stuck for a couple hours. But we were called next, about 5 minutes before our scheduled time.
 
The officer was very nice and really made the interview to not feel as such an official thing. At first we swore to tell the truth, only truth and nothing but truth. Then he asked us for our passports and IDs since he saw them in our folder. Then he took a picture of me (for identification purposes he said) and fingerprints of both index fingers. Then he said we'd go through the form to confirm the data. He asked me pretty much all the question from I-485: my full name, date of birth, previous names, address and work history, names of my parents, number of marriages and children, my wife's full name and date of birth. During that he asked me if I was working since I arrived. I said no, and he asked, "How do you guys pay for stuff?". My wife said that she's working full-time, and he seemed to be pleased with the answer. Then he went through all the yes/no questions. When I answered he was crossing out every point all this time. After that he signed the form and asked me for another signature. 
 
After this part he asked how we met. We told the whole story from our first message till our days. He asked when exactly we started dating and if the website we met on was a dating site. Then he was like "Okay, I see you brought some papers for me, let's see them". He was only interested in relationship proofs, he didn't asked for any additional financial papers or of what was already submitted - so no birth certificates/marriage certificates/ SSNs. He took the vet bills with both our names on it. It was the only type of bills we had - before that we told him we're living on the land owned by my wife's dad, so he was fine with us not giving any utility bills. Also he added to our case the print out of phone bill that shows that I'm added to the family plan, copies of wedding/Christmas card sent to both of us and a letter from the insurance company that shows me as dependent. Then he flipped through our photo album (approx. 60 photos since our first meeting till Christmas). He asked about people in a few of the pictures, then asked where our wedding ceremony took place. There was a cute moment when he saw a picture of us with our puppy and was like "Oh is it your dog?? Okay, now you're all the way in." Oh and also at some point he asked what field I want to work in.
 
That was it. He said, "Now you can relax, I'm gonna approve your case" and asked me if I'd like to get a stamp in my passport that will serve as a temporary Green Card. Of course I said yes (I feel more secure with this stamp haha). He said he'd bring it in about 15 minutes downstairs, so we waited there for him. The I-551 stamp says it's employment authorized and valid for 2 months. We left the building and were in the car at 11.00 (interview was scheduled for 10.30). Last night my status changed twice - first to "Interview was completed and my case must be reviewed" and then in a couple hours to "New card is being produced".
 
So overall it was a VERY easy and pleasant experience. I hope everyone waiting will ave their interviews soon and as nice as mine!

I've seen Someone expedite their EAD due to a job offer in addition to her reasons they were hit by a hurricane so that was another additional reason since they needed to rebuild and I think they approved it.
For F2b I have no clue,it doesn't hurt to try though.

Happy new year everyone! 
I just wanted to share with you that my EAD status changed today to new card is being produced! Hope that it would not take to much time to be delivered. 

Hey guys, my wife's interview for AoS was yesterday at the Raleigh-Durham, NC office. Interview didn't really take that long, but she passed. With the holidays the officer estimates she'll get her green card in about 3 weeks. But here's a little overview of our interview to help anyone still to have one. Be sure to have your appointment letter and government issued ID handy, as you'll need them frequently.
 
Arrived at 1:25 pm for our appointment at 1:45 pm. An officer checked over our IDs and appointment letter at the entrance. Had us go through an airport like metal detector and have a seat in the waiting area.
At around 1:30 pm they called for all the 1:45 appointments to line up. They checked the IDs and appointment letter again. Had the foreign spouses form a line in front of a check-in desk and the rest line up near the elevator. Once your foreign spouse checked in at the desk the two (or three for the many people there with lawyers) could use the elevator to go upstairs to another waiting room. On the second floor waiting room we waited until our ticket number was called, roughly around 2:10 pm. The interview officer had us stop in an office so that they could take her picture and check her fingerprints. From there we headed back to his office.
 
The interview officer had our petition on his desk and wanted to go over some of our paperwork. He stated that our I-693 was still good from her medical check in Bangkok, Thailand and that the I-864 that I had filled out was good to. He went over a few things in the I-485 form with her, confirming that her original name, married name, place of birth, & parents names were correct. Told her that her answers lined up correctly with what was on the form and had her sign a page in the back. From there he moved to asking us some questions. Starting with her.
 
Some questions asked:
Have you ever committed a crime while living in the US?
Have you ever committed a crime in the US without being caught?
Have you ever been arrested?
How many times have you been married?
Have you ever been ordered by a judge to leave the country?
Have you ever previously been denied entry into the US?
Have you ever previously falsely claimed to be a US Citizen? (the way he worded this question confused my wife a bit)
Have you ever voted for someone in government office in the US?
 
From there he moved to more personal questions.
How did the two of you meet?
How we communicated with each other before she was in the country?
When did I go to visit her and if I had visited more than once?
When was our wedding? Where was our wedding?
Asked if we have family in Florida? (our wedding was in Florida)
Asked if we had gone on any trips together since our wedding? and if we had any pictures?
Asked if we had any trouble getting here and if we rode together and who drove?
 
After the questions he said that everything seems to be good. That he'll finish going over the paperwork later that day and give the final approval. Told us some information about going forward, that her green card should arrive within the next 3 weeks. Informed us that going out this will be a conditional green card that is good for 2 years and that within 90 to 60 days of it expiring we would need to apply for the regular green card. In the time till then take photos, keep up with any airline tickets, receipts, if you have kids in the time their birth certificates. Stated that when we file for the normal green card it is best to have as much evidence as you can. They do not care how thick it is, just that more is better and be sure to still be married to the same person. 
 
Afterwards he asked if we had any questions. Then he took us back out to the front and we continued on our merry way.

Guys!!! So happy just got a notification that our interview has been scheduled! 

Hi Everyone! 
 
I've been lurking since our filing date September 4th but never really posted. Just wanted to say I refreshed the app today and was surprised to see our EAD changed to "New card is Being Produced" as of yesterday! We did try to expedite our AP back in November but no luck. Does anyone know if our EAD include our AP as well even if there is no update online for it?

Interview was this morning..I was called in on my own and the officer just went over the the AOS packet asking me basic questions. After the interview I was told I would have the card in the mail in the next 2 week. My wife wasn’t interviewed which I thought was strange.

Hey people.. today I received the letter of my interview.. having the interview on December 20th. 
For the ones that were wondering, here is what they ask for the interview..
 

Hi Everyone!

Also, my EAD and AP was not updated so far....is that normal or should it update as well?
