Default AOS Interview - What will they ask?

Can anybody answer me the following question about the AOS interview - what will they
ask? Will they be asking personal questions about each other etc.? Will they
interview both at the same time or separate us into different interviews?

It will depend on where you interview and who the officer is that does it. I can only
speak from our experience. It was all of about 15 minutes. She had the file on her
desk and browsed through it; asked if Paul was employed and for his employment
info....we had a letter from his work and a copy of his W-2. They asked if he had
commited any crimes since being in the country and that was about it. He already had
his medical and vaccinations from the K-1 process. No personal questions at all. He
left the room and we both thought this is when they ask us questions seperately, but
they were just fingerprinting him. We came home with just about all the papers and
documents we arrrived with. Best to have everything on the list they ask for though
just in case they request it. She didn't even want to see our pictures!.... She
finished with explaining the procedure for removing conditions and told us we should
have his card within 6 months. We got the card in the mail about 2 weeks later. It
was very anticlimatic to say the least!

Our interviewer asked us bugger all (basically date of our wedding) - others have had
rather harder interviews and have been asked things like which side of the bed each
one sleeps on. Some offices separate couples for interview but most don't.

Did you have your interview in Boston? Did they actually ask you any of these
