Updated timeline. St. Paul, MN
Hey everyone,
Thank you all for sharing your experiences! This forum helped me a lot. I’m adjusting my status from F-1 ( Spouse of U.S. citizen ) 
Here is my timeline so far:

12/04/2015  Delivered . Priority day
12/09/2015  USCIS receipt by email and text 
12/10/2015 Check cashed
12/14/2015  Notice of Action receipt 
12/26/2015 Biometric letter received  
12/28/2015 Biometric done ( walk in. St Paul office. Officers were very friendly and helpful. It took less then 20 min )
01/11/2016 RFE  was mailed
01/13/2016 RFE in mail box
  
( They asked us for tax return 2014 but we didn’t have because my husband started to work in July, 2015 and before he was a full-time student. We previously explained it in form i 864 and attached all pay stabs, letter from employe as a prove that he is making enough money. Obviously it wasn’t enough  so we decided just to file tax return for 2015 asap and send it. )

01/28/2016 Infopass appointment about RFE. For us it was a waste of time. I felt that she wasn’t trying to help and didn’t have information we needed. Just read some instructions. Useless.

02/01/2016 Response to RFE sent to USCIS 
02/04/2016 Response to RFE delivered to USCIS 
02/08/2016 Response to USCIS request for evidence was received
02/19/2016 EAD/AP approved. New card is being produced
02/23/2016 Case is ready interview 
02/25/2016 Combo card delivered to me

Also I was able to get my driver license for 5 years next day after I received Form I-797, notice of action ( I-485, application to register permanent residence or adjust status). People in DMV were very mean to me but I didn’t care as long as they approved my DL. They asked for passport and 1 more ID, Form I-797, I-94 ( printed from site ), marriage certificate because I changed my last name. 

06/22/2016 Interview was scheduled for July, 27
07/27/2016 Interview day. Approved on the spot.
08/03/2016 My card was delivered.

We had to wait like 40 min-1 h in the waiting room. Officer was super serious. First she called my husband(us citizen) and interviewed him for like 40 min. I was getting a little bit nervous.

She asked him questions from 325G forms ( our names, dates of birth, places we leaved, places we traveled, current job information, where do we live now and when did we move together).
Then she asked why did we decided to get married, how long were we engaged, and
who did propose ( we were not engaged and we just decided to get married )
- also she asked about the ring ( we don't have wedding band yet because the ones I like are too expensive and we decided to buy them for big ceremony)
-where did we get married and who was invited to our wedding ( we got married on the roof of our building and invited our neighbors )
then she asked him when did he introduce me to his parents
and what are our plans for the future
Thats what he remembers from his interview.
My interview was like 25 min. She asked me the same questions from form 325G but only about myself. Only one was about my husband- his date of birth.
Then I had exactly the same questions that she asked my husband about our relationship, proposal, rings etc…. Then she asked when did my husband took his board exams and where and when did we travel after. And also she wanted to know when and why did I live with his parents.

I gave her our health and dental insurance, tax return, bank statement, pay stabs, lease agreement for the next year, tickets from our most recent vacation, most recent pics with the families.

At the end of my interview we were just chatting about different programs in medical field here in MN and how is it possible to be able to spend and quality time with the family and at the same time work as a doctor in US.

If you have any questions feel free to ask me.

I wish good luck to everyone and be patient!
