Hey everyone! I wasn't able to go to my husband's interview in Montreal with him, but I just got out of my business meeting and was happy to find an email from him saying the interview was complete and he was approved! I'm so happy! I was pretty worried about our domicile stuff before because we are doing DCF and I haven't lived in the US for about 5 years now, but I took Trailmix's advice regarding what to provide (moving quotes, which I'm not sure they looked at, voter registration, proof of US bank accounts which they liked, a letter from my employer acknowledging my impending move to the US, and most importantly the letter from my parents saying we were moving in with them and specifying rent, etc.) and that was all they needed. Thanks so much for your help Trailmix and the sample rental letter wording you gave me!

I will go post his really short recap of the day in the Embassy Reviews section now. Thanks to everyone for all the help and well wishes!
