This forum is incredibly inspiring and helpful for gauging expectations of process, experiences, forms, etc. I wanted to help the cause and pay-it-forward to others for what it's worth. I am the USC and my wife EWI when she was 7 from Mexico. We utilized a knowledgeable attorney through the process of all DACA applications, the AP and the AOS since 2012.

We live in Charleston, SC.

Timeline:

PD - 4.06.17
Biometrics complete - 5.03.17
Interview Ready to Schedule- 5.23.17
Interview scheduled 7.06.17 for 08.07.17
EAD Approved - 7.13.17
Interview (Charleston Field Office)- 08.07.17 (officer said he will approve; told to wait one week for letter and roughly 2 weeks for card)

The interview was very straightforward, we had our 5 year old as well as our 2 year old. The officer was kind and asked about how we met and my wife's AP entrance. We have been together for 8 years and married for 5 in addition to bringing our children with us to the interview. He and I connected due to my job title and honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Our attorney's submitted our joint bank statements, our deeds for our properties (multiple) and a plethora of further documentation with insurance documents of multiple sorts, investments, beneficiary information on all assets, familial documentation proving that we know each other's family, etc.

The one item that I took away from this was that though we had an attorney, we didn't bring them as they are based in Denver, CO. He was explicit in that he appreciated this and demonstrated he would work through the interview more efficiently.

I hope this helps, please feel free to ask questions. I truly appreciate everyone's contribution and I will continue to attempt to work for dreamers in my small capacity. There are many in this country who value each of your contributions and I too support your cause and wish the best for all.

Best regards.
