Parked on the street and went into the building 15 minutes before our appointment. Be prepared to take off boots and heavy clothing to go through security.
We checked in and gave the woman at the front desk our “new†papers to submit and interview notice. They cannot be in any kind of folder- better to just have them organized with a binder clip (I had a small binder with dividers and sheet protectors but they made made take everything out). We were called in 5 minutes later.
We swore to tell the truth and the man asked if any of the new papers were repeats. He gave us back most of the papers (other than evidence). He did not need any of the NOAs, passport/DL/EAD copies, etc. He really only kept the new evidence of relationship and the Interview notice.
The questions he asked were straightforward, though my husband had a hard time hearing with the masks. He mostly talked to him and asked him questions about how many times he entered the US, and other items directly from the application. DO NOT try to answer for the person being asked the question. I subconsciously was nodding my head and the officer told me not to interfere with the questions being asked to my husband. He definitely was asking questions to get a reaction (He asked my husband if he ever had trouble when entering the country and stated, while looking at his computer, that it said he was held at the airport. This was not true and my husband denied that that had happened. So I’m not sure if that was a way to check if he was lying...
The officer asked me a few questions, mostly about my husband’s son (who does not live with us). Also about money and expenses (who pays for what, shared bank accounts, etc.
Last, the officer went through the criminal questions from the original form and my husband had to answer verbally. Afterward, he signed a paper regarding the green card. The officer did not say anything about being accepted.
As we were walking out, our USCIS account had been updated. First saying that our case was being reviewed and the second saying that our card is being produced and mailed!
