We had our interview at the Seattle field office! Here's a breakdown of our experience.
Preparation:
Our lawyer had thankfully advised us to get a new I-693 (civil surgeon exam) completed beforehand, which was excellent advice as ours indeed turned out to be expired. If we hadn't had it on hand, we would've received a RFE. (I'd suggest to anyone applying to adjust status, check out the updated USCIS rules regarding the civil surgeon exam. I believe it is, if your I-693 was completed 60 or more days before you submitted your package to USCIS, then the I-693 is only good for 1 year; if the I-693 was completed 60 or less days before submission of package, it's good for 2 years. Unfortunately we had mine done in November 2017 and submitted February 2018, so it was outside the window & we needed to redo. But I'm glad we did!
We made the mistake of working the day before our exam, so we ended up staying up until 4 am copying documents and assembling them... read complete review

Got an appointment date/time for biometrics but it was right in the middle of a very important event I had planned, and rescheduling would've probably been missed too due to going on honeymoon...!
So tried my luck going in the Thursday before, parked ($8, unfortunately), and got fingerprints/photograph all completed within about 70 minutes. Pretty pleased!
Also, the appointment letter said "NO CELLPHONES" but clearer instructions inside the office states that cell phones are actually permitted in the building/general waiting area, though obviously no photos/video and no phone calls/using them whilst speaking to immigration personnel. Wish I'd known that before leaving mine in the car; would've made the 70 minutes go slightly quicker!

We had an 8:15am interview and checked in around 7:50am or so.
As I've read many times, when you then go upstairs, TURN RIGHT, and sit on that side. I can't see any way that you would hear your number being called if you were on the other side.
They were running a little late, we were called in around 8:35am or so by a young girl, very friendly!
Placed under oath and asked a few 'standard' questions, this took about 10 minutes, then she just asked us to tell about ourselves, how we met, etc..
My wife and I talked solidly for about 45 minutes, the girl just let us go on and on!.
We naturally fell into a normal conversation, laughing about things and just talking about our lives.
We were then told we were approved and sent on our way.
Advise for anyone that is nervous... Be prepared with all the documentation, triple check you have everything!
But then when you arrive, be prepared for a 'casual conve... read complete review

My AOS interview got scheduled for March 13th at 12:15pm. I got there at 11:30am, I went through the security and went to check in place. They said it is too early to check in and asked me to come back at 11:45am. I checked in at 11:45am and went upstair. I heard where the US flag is for Citizenship, so I went to the right side of waiting area and sat in front of the door(Right next to TV). People started coming out of the door and soon interviewers called numbers(My number was K9). I waited for over an hour, everyone got called in, but I was the only person who was left in the waiting area. The next appointment (1:15pm) people started coming and they got called in. I thought something went wrong with my number, so I went back to check in place to ask. The lady said someone just pulled out my application, so I should go back. And my interviewer finally called my number. She said she got called to do some other work and it took awhile to finish it. So she apologized for the long wait. W... read complete review
