My husband and I had our AOS interview yesterday at the Fairfax office, and it went pretty smoothly. The office is what you would expect - like a DMV but with more tension in the waiting room. We were called exactly 15 mins after our interview time, and the officer was friendly and professional. She mainly asked me questions, and my USC husband just sat there quietly most of the time. We went through the whole I-485, confirming addresses and other basic info before running through all the scary yes/no questions. After that she asked what other evidence we had brought, and I handed over updated documents for my husband's Affadavit of Support as well as evidence of our married life. We had a lease, joint credit card, wedding photos and cards etc. At the end she gave us a speech about USCIS having 120 days to let us know their decision, and we left feeling a bit worried. One hour later our case status changed to "Interview was completed and case must be reviewed," and four hours after tha... read complete review

We arrived approx 20 minutes before the scheduled time.
You enter at street level and pass through airport style security, including removal of shoes and belt.
You check in with the desk following security, provide your interview letter and then walk around the corner to the elevator. Up to level 2.
On level 2 you enter a large waiting room and check in again with the reception desk, providing your interview letter.
There are restrooms at the back and the space is generally pleasant with TVs on mute.
Immigration officers will regularly appear from behind a door, rummage through the stack of interview notice letters and call out the name of each individual. We were the only couple in the room; most other people were by themselves and so I presume this office deals with many more cases than just AOS interviews.
Once we were called, about 20 minutes past our interview time, we followed the immigration officer to her private office.

Had our AOS interview at Washington DC office in April 2016. The officer was polite and efficient. Didn't even realize we were being interviewed, it felt as if she was making small talk asking how/when we met, etc. We brought any additional evidence (eg. many photos, an international marriage license, first ever joint tax return, originals of all mandatory documents) of our bona fide marriage to the interview. I remember the officer being especially impressed with the international marriage license (I got it from Turkish Embassy - wanted to certify my marriage & change my last name in my home country as well). She also asked a couple of questions on our daily routine.
It's been a while so I can't remember all the questions but basically she verified the info on the I-485 form, re-asked some questions relating to illegal activities (from that form). While this line of questioning and asking for additional documents were going on, she also added in questions about our rel... read complete review

We had a good interview at the USCIS office in Fairfax, VA. Arrived about 10 minutes before our appt. and went through security and then checked in. The officer came out and called us about 20 minutes after the scheduled time. He looked at our ids and passports and then took my husbands picture and fingerprints. Then he verified my info in the I-130 and asked my husband all of the eligibility questions. Then he asked if I wanted to add anymore evidence and I added some things. He told us it would be 1day to 120 days to receive any news of approval or intent to deny. I think it went well, but it was a weird experience. Hopefully it comes soon. Good luck to everyone else! I really thought he would ask more questions and want to hear more about us.

Well i had a pretty smooth AOS interview. We reached the center approximately 45 minutes before our scheduled appointment and checked in with the staff at the reception. We were carrying all required evidences and 2 copies of every supporting evidences with us. We waited in the reception area along with other interviewees for about 20 minutes and then we were called inside by our interviewer. The lady officer was probably in her early 30's and she had a very pleasant demeanor.
The interview was pretty quick and it lasted for about 30 minutes in total. The interviewer first took our ids and verified it and then asked us to sign the forms. She asked us some random unrelated questions to make us feel comfortable. She asked us about our first meeting, dates, family, travel, enagagements, jobs, residence, marriage and all. My wife instead of answering to individual questions narrated our story from beginning to end and she didn't ask anything further. While my wife was nar... read complete review
