Marriage Based GC (Santa Ana, CA)
I have been reading forums from this website since the beginning. It has helped me a lot and understand the process, therefore I would like to share my experience and give you my timeline:

I-485
May 16, 2019 Case received
Sep 10, 2019 Biometrics
Oct 2, 2019 Case is Ready to be scheduled for an interview
Oct 5 EAD Received
Jan 14,2020 Interview Scheduled
Feb 24,2020 Interview at 2PM
Feb 24,2020 (10 mins after the interview) NEW CARD IS BEING PRODUCED!

INTERVIEW:

1:45PM Arrived at the USCIS office.

1:55PM Gave my id and was asked to take left and right index finger prints. We sat down and were asked to wait for our names to be called.
10 mins later our names were called.
Sworn to tell the truth and nothing but the truth.
Officer asked for our joint documents.
Gave them our folder containing all copies of our joint documents which include
BANK STATEMENST
Credit card, debit card copies
Phone statements
Medical insurance (from my spouse’s company)
Time share documents (we purchased a timeshare)
Car titles with both our names on it
Jewelry Insurance
W2’s of my spouse
Joint tax documents
Rental agreement
All the receipts of our gifts for each other with photos
Letters we gave each other since we started dating
Photo album containing photos with our friends and family members.
Letters our friends sent us.

Upon checking all the documents, the officer didn’t ask us a lot of questions he just asked me for my birthday and asked my spouse for her bday too.
After that, he asked me questions answSerable with a NO. Like “Have you killed anyone?”
Have you committed fraud of any kind?
Have you smuggled drugs?
etc etc etc.
After all those questions, he asked us to sign and told us right away that the adjustment of status have been approved and i’ll be receiving my GC by mail in 2 weeks. That’s all! He congratulated us.
All in all it took us 15mins.

I was not expecting the interview to be that smooth and very friendly. I thought it’s going to be difficult for us since we are a same sex marriage and my spouse was married before to an opposite sex. The officer didn’t dig deeper into our marriage and didn’t ask more questions. I think we provided him with a lot documents that are sufficient enough to justify the genuineness of our marriage.

I guess if you’re marriage is legit, you have nothing to worry about. Just bring all necessary documents that you can provide as much as possible.
Goodluck to everyone who’s going through the process yet. I wish the same luck and positive outcome to everyone.

My process took 9mos until the GC is produced.
