I was also asked details about our apartment, asked how I met my husband, asked whether my husband has ever met my parents and siblings, I was asked their names, I was asked if we had ever taken any trips together. The interviewer asked us to leave some pictures from our photo album and also provide any documents that shows comingling. We had bills with our names on them as well as insurance documents. We were thankfully approved on the spot.

Around March/April 2016 I applied for another EAD based on my then pending AOS application and I was sent a notice that I would not need to go for another set of biometrics.

Is it safe to do so and are there any differences between a work permit from marriage and a work permit from DACA if all you want is to travel back to your country (like visiting your parents)? Thanks.

I have a EAD/AP combo card and yes there is a difference between a DACA EAD and a AOS EAD, with the DACA EAD you can only apply for AP for humanitran purposes and if you apply for AOS EAD and when you apply for AP you don't need to have a explaination to leave the country and come back.
