But the officer took me earlier since I was there. he was a white gentleman. he made my way to his office. the building was complicated. he made me take the oath. Then he started to look at my file. he asked for my birthdate, birth place, home address. He asked me if I had been to any other country or left US since I came here. Questions like these. Then he asked me about PhD and my school. I haven't said a word more than he asked.

Hi guys, I promised I'll let you know about my interview.
I don't have an answer yet about my application. I got there at 9. I had my interview appointment at 9.30 but nobody called me. I waited til 10 then I went and talked to the lady in front and asked her what's happening. She said that if they don't call my name til 10.30 , to go back talk to her. I had my interview at 10.45. A lot of waiting. The duration of the interview was less than 10 minutes. The IO vas very nice, but she was also in a big hurry. She was behind with her schedule and said that she's sorry she's rushing me and that everything is common procedures, nothing to worry about. She asked me about date of birth, name of parents, about my status, etc. She didn't ask for affidavit of support, but she said she will review my application, and check my financial information and she will let me know if she needs something from me. She said that everything looked fine. If they need smth, they'll call me.
It looks like I have to wait again.
I'll keep you posted of what will be next. I'm kind of disappointed. I hoped I'll be done with this today.

As promised here is a detailed interview for those interested :
Reached the office at 10am, interview scheduled for 11am. There was a steady flow of people in and out. At sharp 11am our IO called our family name and took us to her office. She asked us for our Drivers License and for my daughter she took her school photo ID. Since we had filed thru a lawyer she wanted to know if we wanted to proceed without the lawyer and made us sign a waiver form each. She started by informing us we need to take the oath and should we not understand her question we can ask again but it is imperative the correct information is given. We proceeded with the oath. She then informed us some of her questions may make us uncomfortable but we need to answer them. We agreed and then she proceeded with the interview. She started with informing us that she has both our adjustment of status files (DV & EB) with her and we can make a decision which one we need to continue with once she finishes with the DV based interview. She asked each one of us to give our full name, date of birth, place of birth, she verified our address, our social security numbers, type of visa used, date and place of entry into the USA. She asked if any of us left the country since we arrived. She then informed me since I was the lucky winner she needed to check if I qualified for the same. She asked to see originals of the following - birth certificate, passport, school certificate, university certificate (but went on to say only the school certificate was the deciding factor) and letter from the employer. She asked me what subject I majored in university and if my work was related to my studies. She told me my papers looked good and now she has to check records for my husband and daughter. She asked to see originals of my daughters birth certificate and my husbands birth and our marriage certificate. She went on to confirm that I had only one child. She told us she would take copies of my daughters birth certificate and our marriage certificate. I apologized for not having a copy on me. She then proceeded to ask the normal background check questions (police, criminal etc.) I guess these were the uncomfortable questions she was refering to.
After all this she said now we need to make a decision which file we want to proceed with as she cannot have both cases open. I asked her which case will be the fastest to this she replied with a smile our DV case will be approved today subject to us withdrawing our EB case. Wow these were the words I was longing to hear. I looked up into the sky thru her high rise window and thanked the Good Lord for his work. We then had to individually sign that we were withdrawing my husbands EB case. And she made the necessary entries into her system. She took all our I-94’s and also asked for our EAD cards as we will no longer be requiring the same. She gave each one of us a notice of approval and informed us within the next 2 to 3 weeks we should receive our GC. She asked if we had any questions for her. She told us within 5 years we can apply for naturalization. She congratulated us and told us to celebrate. The officer was really, really nice. She asked questions about the history of our country and its culture. We thanked her and left. Wow the interview was lengthy I guess because of our EB case but the result was awesome.!!!!!!
Thanks once again for all the support I have received thru this forum and will keep you all posted when my GC arrives.
I wish everyone all the very best. GOD BLESS.
