Hurray! Case status just changed to “Interview was scheduled”. Waiting to receive the notice by mail and hopeful our interview date will be right after 2 year wedding anniversary on August 26th so I can get the 10 years GC.

Good luck. From previous reports most likely your interview will be after August 21st. Maybe you can joke to approve after the 26th

LFO Milwaukee ( PD is December 5th, 2018).

Marriage based AOS from B2 overstay ( 5+ years). Together with my husband 6 years, on the day of interview we were married 2 years and 1 day

Our appointment was scheduled at 8-00 in Milwaukee Office. Same place where you will have you biometrics. We came at 7-30 and went inside,
We went through security. Phones are allowed on silence.

Went to second floor, checked out at window 4 and nice lady told us to sit and wait. In approx 10 minutes we were called in private room. Our officer was strict but polite. He swore us, started to question my husband (USC), date of birth, etc. Then he started to talk about my previous divorce in my country and i felt like he didnt like the answer.

Then he asked what kind of joint documents we had ( I didnt have work permit, ssn and driver license). He looked at joint bank account, family affidavits ( I have very close relationship with his family) and huge pile of mail on both of our names.

Then he told me to leave and he wanted to talk only to my husband. In 15 minutes he called me in and told me to tell how we met, all the story with all details. Then he started to ask about my husband siblings, what their names, their children names, their age, how much time we spend together and what was the last time we were seeing them.

All our answers matched, except 2 little things, but it was hard to remember everything perfectly as it was almost 5 years ago.
Then officer started to ask me basic questions on I-485 and went through all the “yes/no” questions on I-485.

In the end he took our new tax return and 3 photos. Said everything is ok, we will hear anything within 90 days, asked us if we knew about conditional GC, but I mentioned that we married two years already and he said: “ then you have nothing to worry about”. Asked me if we had any questions. So i took the opportunity and asked about the whole process and why its taking so long and how I was upset that I didn't get EAD.

Overall everything was fine. I just didn't expect us to be separated. In 10 hours after interview status changed to “New card is being produced”.
