I am USC and I have been living here in Egypt for almost 6 months. My husband and I will go to the petition interview September 23 and I just am making sure I have everything together. I have a question about my passport, when I first came here we went to elmogama (the place that does passports) and we explained to them that I will stay here for 6 months and then we will file for a petition interview for my husband and they put a stamp in my visa and this is what it says " TEMPORARY RESIDENCE FOR NON TOURISTIC" does anyone know if this is the correct stamp that I need to show proof that I have been living here for the past 6 months. Thanks

That should be good enough, but they will not be looking at that. they will look at the entry and exit stamps to make sure that u have not left egypt since u arrived. my husband had the residency stamp also, but the CO did not look at it. Hope this helps. :)
