Officer then proceeded to ask me the same questions and then all the yes/no questions on the i485. The atmosphere was pretty serious all through this. It didn't start to lighten up until the officer began to look through our evidence. That's when he began to ask about our relationship. How we met, how long we dated before we married, etc. He started joking with us and it definitely helped ease the rest of the tension my wife and I had.

He looked through our wedding pics and complimented some of them. Told us how we looked drastically different than 4 years ago (when we began dating). It ended with an awkward silence as he typed on his computer. But then he broke it by telling us that our case was fine and we were approved. Then it was all smiles from there.

He even suggested a restaurant to eat at bc we mentioned that's what we were going to do afterwards since our interview was at 8am.
Where the questions on the i485 that he began to ask the same as the one you submitted with you application ? or were there additional questions that were not on the application ?

The same questions. The wording was a little different. But they were the same. He asked 3 or 4 at a time and marked them off on the actual application.

I can't say that. However, I can say my biometrics cleared a few days later.

Information is at the place where you had your bios done. I went and talked to the site supervisor of the ASC and was able to not only get the information from them, but saw it myself on their system when I asked to see it.

What have those who went to the interview take with them? On the NOA it says to take the I 864 ( unless already submitted). Since I have done this year's tax returns, I was wondering if I had to edit the
I 864 with the new tax information and present the new tax returns during the interview.

TIA
